People from the 70s would laugh out loud at how prude we’ve become.

I’ve come across enough novelty stuff from that time to become sad at where we ended up.
Hells yeah. Hot pants! Also men’s shorts knew their place in the natural order and weren’t trying to be pants.
This can’t possibly be real, can it?
Always has been. No joke, vibrators were advertised as massage devices since the 50s. Mail order war the way to go long before the first sex shops opened.
And they really are massage devices. I use a vibrator when I have muscle cramps in the back, and sometimes I use it to “shake free” the sinuses when they are blocked during a cold (roll a soft cloth around the vibrator and hold it to your forehead, the snot will start avalanching within seconds, free airways for the win).
Very useful devices I’d say.
“shake free” the sinuses
That’s genius and you need to use every excuse to spread it around.
Nasty. Thanks! 😊
‘I jackhammer my nostrils with a vibrator’ is not a sentiment I’d expect to find wholesome.
That’s amazing. Sounds like my one experience with Sinex nasal spray. It was like turning on a faucet.

Double entendre FTW! 😁
It’s real. House & Garden Magazine, December 1971, page 127.
Also see the ad for “Lady Alsons Personal Shower” on page 28, and the Insta-Jet Propane Flame Gun, only $9.99, on page 113!
I know right? You could buy flamethrowers and they outlawed lawn darts.
For more fun read the note on the Crane Stationery! It’s like reading into the future!
I hope this account moves from Twitter I like it
Xitter is death
I use the Chinese pronunciation, “shitter”
This is correct.
What, she couldn’t hold the corner of the washing machine to her jaw?
Can confirm here in New Zealand too. Well into the 80’s in the relative mainstream, and even seen up to at least the mid-90’s in mail-order catalogues (of general household goods).
They knew, they just hid it in plain site so they can’t be sued.
For
tobacconeck-and-shoulder use onlySued? Or criminally prosecuted? IIRC many states in USA had laws against dildoes and vibrators till recently, or still do
Richard Hammond and James May with a bottle of For Legal Reasons This Is Not Vodka.
I’m sure it is effective
I remember seeing these as kid back then. Clueless.
And just think, if that model was 25 in 1971 she would be 78 now.
Oh god. This is beautiful! Thanks OP!
