A Follow-up to the Earlier Vermont Country Store Posting

Well, some months have gone by, and the Vermont Country Store has graced Miss Edith's mailbox with a summer catalogue, which contains a number of tempting new items. Miss Edith curled up with Notarius on the couch for some serious browsing, and we had a nice time reminiscing about the last catalogue we'd received from them, which inspired a posting here about the, um, intimate products they now carry.

It was with some interest, then, that we flipped to the middle of the catalogue, where we saw that there were indeed new intimate products available. By far the most entertaining of these was a bath pillow that comes with a submersible vibrator tucked into it -- how handy is that? -- but I couldn't help noticing that, as always, when new items are added to the catalogue, old items must be taken out. One assumes that the items that were taken out of the print catalogue were things that just didn't fly. Well, dear readers, cock rings are no longer in the print catalogue for the Vermont Country Store. Instead, we see more items that are clearly marketed toward the female customer. (You can, if you wish, still find the cock rings at the Vermont Country Store's website -- thank god, right?) Obviously, the people who place orders from the print catalogue are overwhelmingly female... or, I suppose, it could be that the men who place the orders are convinced that if they've got problems in bed, it's their mate's fault, and not theirs. Huh.

On a side note, I've observed with much amusement that many of the people who have been reading Miss Edith's ramblings on this, that, and the other, have arrived here by doing searches for phrases like "Vermont Country Store Cock Rings." Presumably they're not unhappy to find this, that, and the other distracting them on the path to having a bit of the other.
