Vibrating Pink Razors

This is a pretty funny commentary in SF Gate about Gillette’s new vibrating razor (that Jessica blogged about a while ago). It is funny how they are marketing a vibrating razor and trying to act like there is nothing sex toy like about it. The ad says something like,” Turn on soothing vibrations.” Um, yeah this is for shaving and exfoliating. What I am not getting is the thought of a razor near my clit is not really turning me on, but I am assuming the round nobby part is what could be used as a vibrator, but still it is making me feel more queasy then turned on. And shaving has never ever ever, and prolly never will be an erotic experience. It is an annoying beauty standard.
Anyway, the article in SF Gate is pretty funny.
Another Hard, Hot Pink Shave
Ladies! Facing a long, lonely night alone with your stubble? You need a vibrating razor
It is also, of course, the closest thing to a legit sex toy you can buy without actually buying a legit sex toy
Isn’t it cute? The multibillion-dollar Gillette monolith making a cheap-ass vibrator and selling it as a razor? Hell, maybe they didn’t know. Maybe they honestly thought, with all their marketing savvy and all their billions and all those PR whizzes on the staff, that the Vibrance was just another innocent, sweet, virginal product for innocent, sweet, virgin women. You think?
How can we tell, by the way, that this thing is a vibrator in disguise? I mean, besides the hot smooth fleshy pinkness and the rounded penile tip and besides the fact that the portion of the razor’s handle that vibrates most powerfully is actually the large, rounded end without the razor blades on it?
Apparently, the men’s version looks like a racecar and the vibrating head is actually under the razor where you would think it would be for a vibrating razor. This is a good one, get one for your mom, but for us, how powerful can it really be? I might have to do a product test.
Thanks to my roomie Stephanie for the article.
