Random Thoughts

So do we agree that shops like Ann Summers and its ilk exist to legitimately serve female needs, and in fact do so in an apparently completely socially acceptable way? They can of course buy sexy underwear, self-pleasuring aids, and various assortments of accessories.

Would it be the same if I started a shop called John Handcock and it sold industrial sized boxes of tissues, tubes of lubrication and filthy magazines proclaiming to show teenage girls getting wild and dirty?

Double standards or what?

They call those service stations.
 
If I walk out a petrol station with a box of tissues and some porn mags, people will look at me like I'm some kind of pervert. Even if I'm getting petrol as well.

A woman walks out of Ann Summers with 3 rampant rabbits, 2 butt plugs and a partridge in a pear tree and no-one bats an eyelid. I want equality!

Got to be honest, I'd certainly rather Ann Summers existed. Just get yourself a girl who likes to buy the sexy underwear from there and it's all good.

Also, the point about being seen as a pervert for buying a porn mag. Who cares? Every woman on the planet knows men watch porn.
 
don't think that type of shop aimed at men would be that much of a solid business plan.

We can basically relieve stress anywhere easily enough if given 5 minutes alone just using the vault.

People look at you like that anyway :p
 
I agree I want equality.

I'm fed up of getting funny looks when I buy an ice cream scoop, a water melon and a tub of Vaseline.

Heh, you appear to have taken my post a little too seriously ;) My point though still sort of stands, why is it considered weird by most woman that a guy having a play with himself is some sort of weirdo, yet a girl buying a tub of icecream, a copy of Bridget Jones Diary, some bath foam and a 12 inch battery powered rabbit isn't?

To be fair, the missus avoids Ann Summers because it's generally pretty trashy compared to some of the more classier lingerie establishments.

@ Sureshot - Yes, well that's to be expected I suppose when I walk around in my superman pants and a gimp mask, but judge me on my inside, not my outside! Inside I'm a knob :p
 
I'm going to chain myself up outside an Ann Summers shop shouting "Fleshlights, Men's rights".
