Have you seen the OhMiBod banner ad here on MyCoupons? I just saw it here on the Cafe and wasn't sure whether it was for real or a joke. What a riot - a vibrator that plugs into your Ipod to vibrate to the rhythm and intensity of your music. What do you think about this toy? What do you think about this banner ad on Mycoupons - a family site?

OhMiBod Music Powered Vibrator - The iPod vibrator sex toy. Feel the music.

I think it pretty much targets the right group of people considering that about 99% of the posters here are women and probably at least 80% are middle aged.

I thought that had seen the banner on my computer at work, but at home I have ads blocked so I wasn't sure if I had really seen it or not. Sometimes they pop up, you go to another page and you never see it again. I guess I really did see it.

I think its kind of ironic myself.

One of the reasons I left here as a moderator and started my own site (with Cici) is that we were told that that type of discussion was not welcomed here. That it was a "family oriented" site and God forbid a child should come across discussions of this nature. I didn't care for the censorship...you guys pretty much know the rest. TLJ was started.

Irony at it's finest.....lol

Back to the ad itself....It doesn't bother me personally, but I'm sure some folks are absolutely horrified that it would appear here.

Anyone have this toy and care to comment on its performance?

Nope. I haven't seen the ad, and personally, I don't want to see those types of ads on MC. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a prude..... I've got lots of "toys". And if I want a new "toy", I'll seek it out. They don't have to find me, I know where they are. (LOL)

How many kids do you think actually say "I think I'll forgo the games today and peruse mycoupons instead"? I've never understood why people call this a family board. I'm pretty sure that there are teen boards out there more wild than anything on here.

Yeah....exactly. Which was my argument at the time, but the PTB's at that time didn't agree. They wanted anything vaguely sexual censored. I think what was the last straw for me was the menstrual cup thread. Now here we are about a year later with vibrator ads on the front page. How times have changed.

Not to hijack your thread cjs.....I think it would be a pretty cool thing to have. I've got some music that I'd love to see how that thing interprets it!

As to the ad on a "family board", I just may be playing the devil's advocate.

I don't. I cannot stand for someone to read over my shoulder and my children know a) not to and b) that it's rude. But obviously, ymmv.

It's easy to explain a vibrator. They sell them in Staples for goodness sakes.

Toonces, I wonder how it would interpret Mozart, lol.

They DO?? I SO must have missed that at my Staples...lol

Mozart would be interesting, but I was thinkin more along the lines of some Justin Timberlake myself

Well, If I'm gonna have to, then give me some good hard rock with a good bass!

Yeah, I never understood the censorship of the menstrual cup thread. Someone was talking about that time of the month, *I* shared what I used and WHOA...didn't know the controversy I was starting up LOL I think that was after I left being a mod so I didn't know the back end issues (oh no...could that phrase be taken out of context LOL). It's silly to say one thing and then allow advertising of something along the same lines (or worse).

*I* haven't seen the ad but it wouldn't bother me. No big deal. I buy my toys on Amazon (and I bet more teens are shopping Amazon than mycoupons).

Amazon sells EVERYTHING. I looked up ballet flats, browsed enough to find ballet boots, and got really interesting recommendations for some time after that.

hahaha! I think a good hard rock is the point.

Give them a google, or check them out on youtube. I don't have the device you all are talking about - but trust me, if its based on music - the above band is what you want to play (wink). Intense tribal Celtic music with more bass/drums then rap.

Ok ,its a normal body function.How about I start a thread called "What color is your poop?" or "Is your poop runny or hard?"

Go right ahead, that's your right. It's only poop...everyone does it...right?

As far as a menstrual cup, why is it any more disgusting than a tampon or a pad. Honestly, I don't understand how that could be offensive to anyone.

YMMV

I don't find it offensive ,just gross.Especially when your drinking a cup of coffee and thats the first thing you read when you come to the board ,lol.
I don't find tampons "disgusting", just gross to think about.
Pads don't bother me as I'm surrounded by hundreds of them everywhere in my house.

I am not going to buy any more pads!

Try this...don't open up threads that you find...unpleasent. I sure didn't find any reason to open up and read "Father rapes 8 day old baby" That's what I don't understand, if you don't like it, don't read it.
No flames please....it just seems so simple. Everybody just lighten up.geez!
As far as that vibe goes..sounds cool to me, I haven't seen the banner ,but if I did...so what .
Is this really a family site- I had not heard that before. I 've been coming here for 10 years and have never heard that reference before- where did it come from?

Good grief! It doesn't bother me THAT bad to see a topic called "Menstrual Cup".If you had read my earlier post I said I that I could see why a topic like that would have been deleted.I'm not the one who deleted the topic nor am I one who complained about it when it happened.I was just merely saying that I can see why a topic like that would be deleted.You guys just love to blow everything out of proportion like always.I read everything,just as I watch all horror shows and turn my head on the puking parts,lol.The only way to avoid seeing a topic called " Menstrual cup" is to completely avoid the Cafe altogether.
Ok, I now have my fire extinguisher on me, whats next?

I agree with 4csmom, I don't open any thread that doesn't interest me, sounds offensive to me, or is started by someone that bugs me.

Sorry Dolly. I don't want to be just another hard to get along with, ready to pounce member here. I did not mean to direct anything at you personally. just sometimes I think people, not you per say, but people in general on these boards like to be a tad bit up tight.
YIKES! Now I better get my flame proof gear out!! LOL
BTW- who is "You guys"??
Toonces, cover me!
