The Walrus Blog

On the subject of Katherine Leyton’s post on the sexist, racist horror of making sex toys out of political candidates: they’ve done it to old white guys too. Is no one safe from the novelty-porn-gag menace?

(Given the the way the names Dick Cheney and George Bush arouse set off involuntary reactions in the frontal schoolyardabellum of the human brain, it is a small mercy we were spared the obvious from the so-called adult industry for eight years, so far as I know).

Right, carry on then. And sorry if you’re reading this on an empty stomach.

    A quick note on Edward Keenan’s discovery of the Bob Dole and Bill Clinton dildos…

    Old white guy presidents have been made into dildos too?! Damn. Just when I thought I’d finally be able to convince blog-readers into sharing my feminist horror!

    Oh well. Now I don’t feel so guilty about that Palin doll I bought. We have late night chats after The Hillary Nutcracker and I finish cracking imaginary men’s nuts.

    Me: So did you hear that you’re the “direct counterpoint to the liberal feminist agenda”?
    Palin doll:
    Me: Yeah, yeah, I swear. McCain said it on the TV the other day.
    Palin doll:
    Me: Do you really want to overturn Roe vs. Wade?
    Palin doll:
    Me: Nut?

    Your Palin doll sounds like a better conversationalist than my Clinton Dildo. My Hillary accessory though is always cracking me up… sorry.

    The Walrus blogs: penetrating analysis.

    I’m gonna just stop now.
