Blogger Mishap

I don't know if anyone happened to notice before I corrected it, but Blogger posted a blog of mine that I had written almost 2 weeks ago 3x's!!!! When I initially tried to post couple a weeks ago, it would not let me do it and I thought that my feelings about the Vibrating Touch would never be heard...or so I thought.

Keep in mind that I was extremely heated to see how Blogger was not cooperating at the time of my initial posting, however I am glad to know that my post had not been lost within the wide world of cyberspace. Anywhoo, so just to clear up any misunderstanding for those one to two people who read my blog on a regular basis (you know who you are, lol), while I felt very passionate about my distaste for the Vibrating Touch commercial, it was not my intent to have the very same post appear on my blog three times. Thank you...now you may return to your regularly scheduled programming. Happy Monday :)

Vibrating Touch

So, I was up at approx. 3 am this morning....don't ask me why I was still up because I honestly don't even have a clue about why either... Anyway, I'm up watching VH-1 Soul (which happens to be my most favorite channel ever) and there's a commercial that comes on and it starts out with 2 women sitting in an office or something looking at a newspaper with an older lady sitting behind them. Anyway, the commercial progresses and the two women ran across an advertisement talking about, of all things, A VIBRATOR... So they're talking and they're talking... Meanwhile, as I'm watching this commercial, I becoming more and more shocked by the moment... I mean, like seriously, these two women are talking about a freakin' vibrator IN PUBLIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who seriously has a conversation like that in public?!?! Maybe it's just me, but that is so inappropriate!!! I know that every one's opinion is not like mine; you know what they say, "opinions are like a*sholes...everybody has one" so I can take that... BUT, is thinking that having a conversation about vibrators IN PUBLIC is so utterly inappropriate a matter of opinion or is really just a matter of being DECENT??? I'd like to think that the latter is true...but, again, who knows -- because I could definitely in the minority who thinks so... Either way, I think that we as a society have become sooo relaxed in our everyday lives that the Trojan company didn't think twice about creating this commercial about their new product. I mean we live in the days of a lesser personal responsibility to ourselves and others so why wouldn't the Trojan company think twice about their commercial about the "Vibrating Touch", right???

I think that I should state that I know that, as humans, it is inevitable that we will continuously evolve. I mean, human civilization has evolved from being a group of people who were governed by nothing else other than the individual consciences of every living citizen to a collective of various nations, continents, and cultures...so, yeah, I get it!!! But, at some point of our evolution, are we going to just evolve ourselves right in an oblivion??? I mean seriously, my parents tell me ALL the time about how things are not the same as how they were when they were my age; and I can already see a drastic change in how things are now in contrast to when I was a little girl. I can pretty much say with confidence that a Vibrating Touch commercial would not have flown over too well in the mid to late 80's. So, just from judging how our society's tolerance for the public discussion of personal dealings like masturbation has drastically changed in 20 years, I can only imagine how it will be within the next 20 years...
