Sex toys in the duty free store.
Whenever I think attitudes to sexuality in America aren’t too far behind Europe I notice something that could never exist in the US and it simultaneously thrills and depresses me.
For example, in Amsterdam’s airport alongside the souvenir cheese and clogs there’s a robust display of vibrators, edible panties and sex toys. They’re all low to the ground, nothing’s hidden from children under the assumption sex is corrupting, and euphemisms about ‘body massagers’ and ‘novelties’ are pleasingly absent.
The candy panties look great on by the way.
two questions: are they duty free? And what are those plant-like things?
Winter - Yes it’s duty free (if you’re traveling to a destination outside Europe) and as for the plants, remember the first rule of sex toys, if in doubt shove it up your ass.
There may not be euphemisms, but I’d get more excited if they had vibrators on display that weren’t designed for discretion. What they need on display is one of those pussy-with-boobs jackoff devices like you posted about earlier. Or something phallic with veiny detail. *Then*, I will truly tip my hat to the Amsterdam airport.
I’m known to masturbate on long plane flights, though, so I appreciate the efforts of any airport to help travelers like myself. They ought to have those things on the in-fight duty free cart you see sometimes. Six hours into a twelve hour flight is when people really want a vibrator, much more so than a bottle of mid-range cognac or perfume.
Last week in Amsterdam I did the groceries with my dad (very rare). On the way I picked up a magazine that they gave away for free at the supermarket. The theme was ” Blood, bloter, blootst ” ( ” Nude, nuder, nudest ” ). So you have this publicly accessible magazine in an area with mostly Muslims living there. ( I could be wrong (no slur intended). )
The magazine usually handles celebrity stuff and some monthly theme. Usually they involve something bordering nude. But now this was frontal. So at some stage browsing to trough the magazine clothing becomes more scarce when they started censoring some dudes genitalia (showing of breasts in the mag seems normal now). Until at the last few pages they start discussing nudist camps uncensored. With the last word you can pretty much guess what kind of pics are in there.
Yes, we have this little magazine anybody of any age can pick up. ( In a neighborhood where I presume some riot would ensue because Allah thinks nudity equals worth killing. ) This was the first time I started wondering if this isn’t going a little bit to far. With all this nudity in reach of children (and minority which seem to riot here when they can), and the constant showing of parts.
I consider myself rather liberal if it comes down to sex and nudity. But I wonder if this didn’t pass some limit.
Drop me a line if you want some scans.
Furry - Are you the woman who actually likes big veiny cock vibes? They broke the mold after you my dear…
Inhibitor - Scan! Scan! I don’t think nudity is a problem, you have to pick the magazine up to be offended and is the human body really obscene? Pornography’s certainly beyond the understanding of most pre-pubescent children though.
No, I’m actually frightened by the ultra-realistic sex toys. I want a sex toy that comes in colors and shapes not found in nature, preferably with sparkles. (What can I say- I look for the same things in sex toys I once looked for in My Little Pony figures.)
But visually speaking, I would like to see more of the big veiny jelly cocks on display in public places.
Furry - Isn’t My Little Pony ears away from being a butt-plug anyway?
As for veiny jelly cocks on display, have you tried asking a pensioner?
