Curtis, are you aware that the Sear catalog used to advertise vibrators back in the day? Or that Lysol was once advertised as a douche in magazines such as Good Housekeeping?
Cite?*
*Unless I’m being whooshed, of course. Then, um, I saw what you did there?
The Master speaks on the vibrator thing:
Here’s a less authoritative cite which specifically mentions Sears:
Here’s a Lysol ad from 1948, touting its efficacy as a douching… juice.
Yikes! Thanks for the cite, though. That ad is hilarious in a :dubious: 
:eek: kind of way.
That’s nothing. In that very same February 22, 2010 edition of Time magazine there is a picture of a NAKED woman on page 45! And, it’s part of a story, not even an advertisement. So there!
Imagine how much that would have burned?
Lysol had douching as one of its uses right on the packaging not that terribly long ago - I was shocked to read it on the package in the variety store in 1979. I think it was something like 1 tsp per quart of water or something like that.
I’m trying not to, thankyouverymuch
:smack:
I shoulda just checked wikipedia in the first place (which is probably what RNATB did :)).
Some other vintage ads:
In retrospect, I guess I shouldn’t have been so surprised, but…
