"We draw the line at what's exploitative. We don't sell pornography because it exploits people."

And selling anal bleach to the anally retentive isn't exploitation?

From $10/£7 to $50/£35 (approx, conversion), per product, I'm sure there will be something cheaper and possibly quicker acting found under the kitchen sink for the average DIYer.

Nope, anal bleaching ain't for me. It would be too much hassle having to wipe after EVERY dump.

Anal whitening cream?

I never realised such a substance existed.

Which leads me to ask: How white should my arse ring be?, i can't even see it, should i ask someone to check for me?.

But what the hell is a penis pinata?

Is it some thing I need or don't really want to know about?

Uhh

So where's the fun in silent but deadly then? I mean, it's like alcohol free lager and renders your farts completely worthless.

I imagine you could use a web cam to see how much anal whitening cream you need to put on.

And there, ladies and gentlemen, is the IT angle.

WTF *is* anal whitening cream? More to the point, why? Also, I hate to sound like a thicko, but what's a penis pinata?

Perhaps our beloved Moderatrix can enlighten us all?

Something for the "silent but violent" brigade???

Stop

I'm with you on this -- up until this morning, I had NEVER heard of anal whitening cream. My life, strangely enough, was not the poorer for it.

Now, however, I'm just pondering, disturbingly, the mental picture of someone whose job it would be to check, grade and, I assume, probably apply the afore-mentioned product.

Stop sign because, if this is where your job is fast-tracking you towards...

Porn exploit? 

Posted Wednesday 12th November 2008 09:10 GMT

As an ex-porn model I can say that as an insider to the industry I don't remember seeing anyone exploited. Maybe somewhere there is a seedy corner of the industry that does, but if so I didn't see it. All I remember is getting paid a decent sum of money for a couple hours of fun. Best job ever.

Now if only I could have gotten enough hours to make a living out of it...

Sorry, but I agree with Big Pete on this one. I haven't led a particularly sheltered life but I also had no idea such a product existed.

The only possible customer I can imagine for it is Michael Jackson. Mind you it that's true, you have to admire his attention to detail.

Selling useless overpriced crap to idiots isn't exploitative?

"PriveCo is probably the best choice to run Vibrators.com." Gawd, these press release writers really know their stuff. When there is nothing to write about, take up at least 3 paragraphs of argle bargle, PR-speak and unmitigated crap.

Really, what the zark is "anal whitening cream" and why would I want or need to use it?

Does it "improve" the experience, whatever that might be?

To be honest, I don't think I want to know the answer but I just know I'm going to spend the rest of the day wondering about this...

Obviously, I've led a sheltered life...

Goggles icon, because when using that stuff I guess you'd have to take safety precautions...

Expensive anal bleaching 

Posted Wednesday 12th November 2008 12:13 GMT

Black Helicopters

A cheaper cream for anal bleaching is, well, bleach. Get some domestos, a wire brush, squat-down in your bathtub and become your rings worst enemy (or best friend - you decide).

Your exit hole was meant for waste duties. It's probably evolved into a shade of brown to cover-up the slops.

With a shiny-white hole you'd be able to spot a dangle-berry at 50 paces, which would put you right off your impending stroke.

That helicopter looks a bit like a naturally-aspirated a*hole.

You have led a sheltered life, in fact

Some gay men have been paying good money for anal bleaching for years..

You guys should get out more 

Posted Wednesday 12th November 2008 17:27 GMT

Anal bleaching is often used when those who don a G-string do not wish their chocolate starfish to be too obvious during bending maneuvers, and if the summer in the UK lasted more that seven minutes then you too would have the opportunity (not) to see how rusty the sheriffs badge isn't.

hmmmm...

"Anal bleaching cream"

Personally I dont think Wacko Jacko needs this. Dont really see the kiddies having time to ripen....

"Penis Pinatas"

Just thinking of how they get the candy these makes me cringe.

"Stripper Poles"

So the question here does the pole come with a stripper as well?

An old friend of mine used to announce, in very public places, that there were three things that every man had done. Have a woman, have a wank, and have a look up his own arse with a mirror. I have often wondered how many men went away in search of a mirror after hearing this. Obviously some did.

The vision of some old dude stood in the shower with stuff to make his grey hair go brown and stuff to make his brown arse go grey has popped into my mind. I think that I will stay with grey hair and brown arse.

No thanks, it's the wrong colour.

I'm putting anal bleaching in the same category as alt.sex.bondage.aluminum.baseball.bat - "think about it if you must but you probably really don't want to go there".

They say they want nothing to do with porn because it exploits people...

Anyone want to hazard a guess at which group of people are the most likley to want to have thier anus looking spick and span? I'll give you a clue, they get paid to have cameras pointing at them.

If there are no "beneficiaries" why bother to fart at all?
