Trembling Loins

OK, I admit it, I ripped this out of a magazine at the hair salon. I couldn’t help it. I suppose I could’ve just gone out and bought the magazine, but it was a really dumb magazine, one that I never read (the name of which I can’t recall), and the only reason I was flipping through it was that I was trying to pass the time while waiting to get my haircut.


Anyway, this is just too whack. I had no idea that Trojan had entered the disposable sex toy market. If I understand this ad correctly, the product shown here is something like a vibrating cock ring. It reminds me of those razors that Gillette makes with the battery in the handle so that the thing vibrates, even though I don’t think the vibration makes all that much of a difference in how close a shave one gets and might actually contribute to shaving cuts (see this week’s HNT post).

God forbid Trojan should have used a scene featuring two men. I mean, it’s not like the ancient Greeks were squeamish about using homoerotic scenes on their pottery. But everyone knows the ancient Greeks were much cooler than the Trojans.


Whatever. It’s still a pretty interesting ad. And, undoubtedly, the best part is this:


No real surprise there. My only question is this: Did the legislatures of these states actually pass a law banning disposable vibrating cock rings?? Perhaps it was a decision on the part of Trojan executives not to market this product in those states, based on the… er… more conservative moral climate.

I guess the good people of Alabama, Colorado, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia will have to find some other way to get their loins a’ tremblin!
