Strippercize…for kids?
Here’s something you won’t be able to spend $100 on to buy for your kids. At least not since Tesco was forced to have this “toy” pulled from the toys and games section of their website.
Tesco was accused of “destroying children’s innocence” after the kit was discovered in the toy section by a mother searching for Christmas gifts for her 10 and 11 year old daughters. Evidently she was surprised to see sales copy saying:
“Unleash the sex kitten inside…simply extend the Peekaboo pole inside the tube, slip on the sexy tunes and away you go!
“Soon you’ll be flaunting it to the world and earning a fortune in Peekaboo Dance Dollars.”
The kit includes a chrome pole that extends to 8ft 6ins, a ‘sexy dance garter’ and a DVD demonstrating suggestive dance moves.
Family Focus, a group opposed to the kit, said that “Children are being encouraged to dance round a pole which is interpreted in the adult world as a phallic symbol… This should only be available to the most depraved people who want to corrupt their children.”
Tesco today agreed to remove the product from the Toy section of the site, but said it will remain on sale as a Fitness Accessory.
Now I’m not saying that kit should be sold to children, but I will say that if you start practicing early enough you can avoid what happens in the video above. Some strippers are too young, and some are just too drunk. Click the start button to take a look.
[…] Here we have two more items for those parents who bought their kids the Peekaboo Pole Dancing Kit we mentioned in Strippercize for Kids last year. […]
