Play-Doh releases toy shaped like a penis, parents outraged.

I should clarify that I take no issue with the original play-doh toy this thread started from since it's not an actual adult toy. I do have issues with children playing with a real adult toy though. I take it you don't? I hope it was at least washed before given to the child.


If you read the caption and had a couple of functioning brain cells that weren't consumed on prudish outrage you could probably extrapolate that the child had found it and was pretending it was a microphone, nobody gave it to him. As the child doesn't know what it is it doesn't really matter. I also hope it was thoughly cleaned though.
 
I find this remark about the article the most funny :

Why does every site say it looks exactly like a penis? Exactly who's penis looks like that? A child of typical Play Doh age would never make that association. It's the repressed adults that see penises everywhere. What it does look like is an "adult" toy. Perhaps that's what's making the parents upset (embarrassed?). Maybe not so much that their kids might think it's a penis, but they might be out with friends when one of their kids says "Mommy... don't you have one of those under your bed?".
 
I don't get offended at all if somebody called me a yellow peril with a tiny flaccid dick or my mom is a whore. But somehow these easily offended idiots think they have a god given right not to feel offended because reasons.
 
These moms are fucking idiots. If their kids are still playing with playdo, then they dont have any idea what a dildo is.
 
Prudish mothers are outraged because they didn't get toys like that when they were young. Fathers are outraged because it is bigger in size than they are.
 
I don't see the outrage, the kids have no idea.

But it is very obvious that they don't have ANY women working in their product development team...

speaking of which....think of all those decent, innocent, wholesome women complaining about what this thing looks like. Somewhere in their lives they must have been forced at gunpoint to stare are dildos.
 
If a penis was actually shaped like that, with an opening such as that, with balls on either side of the shaft, with large dots around the head, it would be a horrific site. So how else other than a dirty imagination would one be left to think that is anything like a dildo? Other than a sudden urge to stick it in your body?

These moms that are outraged need to get laid more, and learn what a penis actually looks like!
 
A real cake decorator looks like a penis too! I'm never eating cake again.

I see no point to this outrage. Does it do what it's advertised to do? If so, make no reference to it's resemblance to other items and let it be. Lots of things look like other things. They aren't those other things though. The comparison to those other things is a phenomenon that goes on in your head and may have no bearing on anything in the real world.

That's not a cake decorator.... that's a sounding pump for pumping air into your penis and bladder to simulate pregnancy pains and period pains for males wanting to investigate male to female sex change operations.

You're sick. Really sick to post something like that.
