Bwahahahahahaha!!!
Although, I do honestly think that this was meant for an older crowd, it is still funny how nowadays it could be so easily misconstrued.
Puts me in mind of a famous Chris Rock bit, where he says ( paraphrasing ) , " Now that I have a baby daughter, my number ONE job is to raise her to stay off the Pole !!! "
:eek:
That toy, that is the height of kiddie-whore fashion. How tasteless.

Um, this is a joke, or a hoax, right?
'Cause Adrian Rogers (quoted in the article)…he be dead. Kaput. Finito. He is an ex-Reverend. He’s gone to the great pole dance in the sky.
That is, the article is a hoax. The product is not. Here, you pervs. It’s very obviously not marketed at kidlets.
His obituary on the same site states that he had a son named Adrian.
Wow, there’s even a “Peekabo Home Lap Dancing Kit”.
Who knew you needed a kit?
Have you seen the video? Watches like an Austin Powers episode.
That’s a rather interesting statement in the Daily Mail (linked to from the OP’s article). Is the person saying that only weirdos should be allowed to buy it?
Yeah something is fishy here. Really can’t imagine any parent buying their baby girl a stripper pole…
Classic Daily Mail article…
“Dr Adrian Rogers, of family campaigning group Family Focus” - Family Who-whatnow? Oh, and he’s a ‘Dr’, so deserves to start a paragraph.
He added: "Children are being encouraged to dance round a pole which is interpreted in the adult world as a phallic symbol. - Interpreted? I should be analysing the semiotics of pole-dancing, rather than looking at the lovely ladies?
This will be sold to four, five and six-year olds…who have a credit card? Huh?
Still available on the Tesco website:
But the priceless bit is the advice:
Heaven forbid it become warm & moist…
The voiceover and the general style reminds me of Weebl. (not the rocking egg character, the guy who created it)
Sounds to me like the commentator off Channel 4 Racing…
I’m disturbed that they haven’t got a Heathcoat-Amery to analyse the value of my house in light of this shock outrage.
Five quid says this weekend’s “health” supplement has something about pole-dancing and osteoperosis.
