This has got to be a joke.

I wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole either...

Unfortunately, even worse has been been tried. A company by the name of Tesco marketed "My First Stripper Pole" to toy stores.

Fortunately concerned citizens got them to remove them from the shelves. I'm probably the first one to blast censorship, but come ooooooooon people!

Their slogan was "Unleash the sex kitten inside...simply extend the Peekaboo pole inside the tube, slip on the sexy tunes and away you go!"

Were they marketing to parents or pedophiles? If they were marketing to children, what was their message behind the slogan?
