Do mannequins turn you on?



Don't do a thing for me.

City tackles titillating mannequins
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051031/od_nm/iran_mannequins_dc;_ylt=AvWuaSdANG5NQrJ6f_QAN_Os0N UE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3NW1oMDRpBHNlYwM3NTc-

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Police in northeastern
Iran are launching a new morality drive by confiscating alluring mannequins from boutiques and clothes stalls in the bazaar, authorities in the city of Bojnourd said Monday.

A spokesman for the city's judiciary, who asked not be named, explained the drive would tackle problems of "public chastity." He said 65 mannequins have been impounded so far.

He explained the crack-down on tailors' dummies was part of a larger offensive against anti-social behavior such as vandalism and biker gangs.

Bojnourd owes its traditional religious climate to the nearby shrine city of Mashhad, a focal point of pilgrimage for the world's Shi'ite Muslims.

Before I clicked on your post I figured I'd be writting what a freak you are, but they're pretty hot. Are you sure they don't do anything for you?

They don't talk back, and dinner for one is cheap.

Maybe if all you've ever seen of a woman's body is her hands for all your life like in Iran, these mannequins might make you slap the clown around a bit, too.

Actually, I prefer the inflatable girls. They travel better than mannequins.

I figured this was going to be about the mannequin flap in Manhattan Beach, California, United States of Amerika.

A mannequin, in the front window of a VERY upscale shop on the main drive, is lying on her side dressed in lingerie for 40 to 50 yr-olds, and is showing some cheek. Some of the townsfolk (not me) are up in arms. City councilmen made a trip to 'check it out' before ruling on a requested suspension of business license. One councilman, before vetoing the request said "If my wife looks that good at 50, I will shop there."

The request for suspending the license was denied. Unanimously.

Some guy was on HBO awhile back. He manufactures life-size mannequins with anatomically-correct orifices and appendages (if you catch my drift). Uses silicone so it feels like real flesh and bone. Can position the mannequin in any position, and weighs as much as a real adult. Cost was around $5000 a pop. Probably cheaper than a live companion in the long run. Definitely a cut above the blow-up version.

Hey, who was it that wanted to earn an extra $5K/month?

Only when they come to life as Kim Catral in her 20's!

Although I have noticed that these days they are making them all with really pointy nipples. Too bad life doesn't emulate fiction in that regard.

Thank goodness they haven't started giving the male mannequins huge bulges.




.... I'd hate to be mistaken for a mannequin

My first wife was one - looked great, motionless, nothing upstairs and was as plastic as a yard table.

Have at it- seems like anything we write is owned by Wayne anyway.
