Women selling Products

The other day I was looking at a website that was advertising a product called Vulva.
http://smellmeand.com/index_2.html

The idea behind this is to bottle the very essence of womanhood so that men, and I assume gay or bisexual women, can get off on the wonderful aroma of a woman’s cunt.
Before I go on to discuss an aspect of this website, I must digress to discuss the product itself.

I first heard about this product whilst watching Jonathan Ross some months ago, prior to his Russell Brand broadcast and the Georgina Baillie malarkey.

The perfume, as I said, mimics the tantalising smell of a woman’s secretions. It doesn’t state which secretions these are, i.e. whether they are the initial lubricant or the gushing cums which clearly have different smells, tastes and texture. However, considering that most ill-informed people still think that female ejaculation is piss, then I am assuming that it is that sticky, sweet substance that comes before the powerful ejaculation that I know and love.

Now it seems to me that such a perfume is a perfectly acceptable product. I can see some enormous benefits to a range of people. For example, imagine some poor sod that has never sniffed a woman’s cunt or has not been near one for some time. This perfume offers an opportunity to savour the flavour, so to speak, either as a first timer or as a refresher and an alternative for something that is not currently available.
There are also the gimmicky “humorous” situations when you can spray the stuff around for a bit of a laugh. I can imagine such a perfume going down rather well in a communal bath tub after a rugby match, for instance.

But there are other people who might benefit from such a product.
I was talking to someone the other day who was telling me about another woman who is having some angst about her sexuality. She can’t decide whether she is bisexual or not. I suspect this woman has never gone down on a pussy so maybe this product could help her decide!
Or there is the man who just likes the smell of cunt, and why shouldn’t he have the opportunity to have a bottle of mock pussy fragrance to keep him going through the day, irrespective of whether he can get the real thing or not on a regular basis.

Having said all of that, there really cannot be anything like the real thing, can there?
I was imagining the alternative for women, i.e. a bottle of fragrant sperm. Would that work? Would it get me reaching for the nearest dick or dildo?
Yet, I would have to say that there is spunk and there is spunk and like the size of cocks and the variation in cunts, there is a difference in the smell of individual vaginal emissions. I am pretty sure that whilst there are similarities, my cum and my lubricant smells and tastes different from another woman’s.

So the answer really has to be this.
If you want the smell of your sexual partner with you throughout the day, then surely the best thing to do is collect a dose of your own juices and find some way of depositing it on something or gathering it together in a vessel of sorts.
Personally, I think knickers are the key. There is something incredibly horny in spreading a little happiness through secreted juices on a pair of sexy panties that you can give to your lover for them to sniff as and when they desire. I really do get extremely turned on by the thought that someone is smelling my cunt and hopefully holding his cock damn tightly whilst he does so, even though I am miles away. I’d happily secrete my juices on whatever is available in order for him to have this as regularly as he wishes.
Even better, I adore the smell of my own panties that I have worn immediately after a wonderful spunky fuck, where my juices are all intermingled with the remnants of sperm that have dribbled out of my pussy during the rest of the time of my wearing the panties.
I have a pair currently that I am loathe to place them in the wash because they still smell fantastic!
That has to be my favourite smell.

Maybe I ought to suggest it to the makers of vulva. The smell of penetrative sex – must think of an appropriate name for this product.

Still, it’s all good fun and it is, for me, another acceptance of female sexuality having a rightful place in life. I know that many a sister would disagree with me, saying that this is a liberty and demeans women but I would suggest that this should be turned on its head. Come on girls, accept that our pussies are the perfect perfume. Embrace it! Love it!

……………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Now I would like to return to the other aspect of the Vulva product – the website.
If you click on the link, you will see a very beautiful woman with a stunning body and a divine pair of tits carefully placing the product in front of her pussy, hiding all the essential elements of woman and thus, I supposed enabling the product to be placed on standard sites rather than just porn sites.

She is extremely sexual. She has a black, transparent camisole on that actually enhances her tits rather than covers them disappointingly. Clearly, looking at this photograph, you want her to remove the product so that you can see where it might have come from. Clearly, the woman is there to entice you into buying the product, and one assumes that if you do buy the product you could imagine that it has come from this wonder woman and you can imagine that what you have in your perfume bottle is actually her cum, her sex, her essence.

If you go further into the website, and look at the gallery, you see this woman enjoying herself, well almost, with another woman. There is no fucking going on. There is no pussy licking or even tit fondling, but there is the strong suggestion that these women have been having such a rollicking good time, that they have managed to produce this fragrant fancy.
And I hope they did enjoy themselves because they both look as though they deserve it.

Then there is the ubiquitous male model who is clearly supposed to be aroused by having these women being sexually excited around him. He is there to remind us that this is a sales pitch to the horny man who would welcome the sniff of this product. He is there to remind us that there’s some action in his trousers at the mere sniff of the Vulva. However, he is totally clad in clothes – fully suited and booted. Why? Well they are not selling this product to heterosexual women and the lesbians wouldn’t need the man to be undressed to get their kicks. And even if they were trying to sell this product to horny, hetero-women, they still couldn’t show his erect cock because that is not allowed!

Obviously, this is a sexual product so of course they are going to use enticing girlies to sell their wares. There is nothing wrong with that. Quite frankly, if you are looking for such a product, you kind of expect there to be some nubile beauty draped around the place, and in this situation, it is absolutely the right thing to do.

However, is it appropriate to use beautiful women to sell other products that are not of a sexual nature? And if that is the case, and it is okay to use female sexuality to sell a product, then why is it not appropriate to use a naked male for the same effect?
Of course, there is a difference between selling a product through female beauty and selling a product through female sexuality.

It’s complicated! Like so many sexual things, there is the yin and the yang, the positive and the not so positive.

Let’s just take a little look at this.
Many adverts use beautiful things to sell product, often coupled with some other theme of sorts.
I can think of plenty of products that have been sold with a beautiful backdrop of natural perfection. Look at the old “Old Spice” advert with the surfer risking his manhood in the incredible brilliance of a curving wave. I was mesmerised not by the male totty but by the unbelievable beauty of this natural phenomenon. Then there was the Milk Tray man darting through all those stunning mountains to get to his beau. As I remember, there was something for everyone with that one; a James Bond with chiselled chin and a 70s lady dressed in black, glittering in gold and looking as though she was about to go to Abigail’s Party.
Guinness too has been known to use the strength of natural beauty to sell their wares, as have Dulux paint and many other products.

One has to consider that the main issue here is the natural beauty. The advertisers have chosen to use natural beauty to sell their product. And what is more natural and more beautiful than the female form? So one could argue, therefore, that there is nothing wrong whatsoever in using naturally beautiful women to sell things to a gullible and unsuspecting world.

It gets slightly more complicated with female sexuality being the product push.
It is further complicated when you cannot distinguish between whether a product is being sold through the beauty of a woman or her sexuality. In some cases the two are indistinguishable dependant upon the woman involved.

But what if it is being sold purely because the woman is oozing sex appeal?
At first glance, this could be somewhat disconcerting. Personally, I have a little issue with sexuality being used in this way, not because it is demeaning but because people still haven’t fully embraced the positives of female sexuality in all its very obvious glory. To use female sexuality before it is deemed acceptable for a woman to be sexual by society seems to me a little premature.
If, on the other hand, female sexuality was being used to sell a product because it was embracing the absolute wonderment of female sexuality then this has to be a good thing. I cannot sit by and get all prudish when I want the world to be accepting and appreciative of a woman’s right to be a sexual being.

I want women to be enabled to be expressive and free with their sexuality, and to this end, I suppose there is nothing wrong with using such sexuality to sell a product but I know that many would disagree. There is the argument that sexuality is such a precious gift for all of us that it should not be used in advertising at all. It is something that is intimate and personal, precious and perfect. The thought of using such wonderment to sell anything is not quite right.
The whole thing about advertising and consumerism is a pretty revolting thing anyway, and I am not sure that I want sexuality to be used in this way.

Just consider this from the other side as well - and getting back to my naked cock.
There is something that is not quite right about a woman’s body being used to sell a product where a naked man’s is not allowed. It is the same as the shots you get in films. Women in full frontal are now an acceptable part of visual art, in the main. Men still hide their cocks from the screen.
I distinctly remember seeing a cock on the screen for the first time – loads of them all at once in the middle of “A Room with a View”. I was in heaven. Copious cocks all at the same time.
Harvey Keitel then dropped his kegs in “The Piano”. I thought that the world was becoming more liberal after all, but both films were nearly twenty years ago and it still hasn’t become a massively mainstream thing to do.

Men, on the whole, give or take the odd David Beckham and his ilk, do not ever get remotely sexual in selling products. On a positive note, maybe that is because there is an assumption that women are not as gullible into buying things just because it is advertised in conjunction with an insinuated hard on. However, there is also the underlying suggestion that it is not necessary to use male sexuality to sell something because women don’t have their hands on the money or that the money that can come from such a product is not actually that important. It is negligible.
Or even worse, and with even more misogyny, it could be because that it isn’t worth the bother. Women don’t need to have a healthy bit of sexuality to sell them anything. They’ll buy regardless!

I would like to think that I am not taken in by advertising but I sadly have to admit that I might be even if I don’t know that I am. That is the power of the whole industry. If this is the case, which it is, then I would actually quite like some hot bloke to sell me a piece of jewellery dangling from a hard one. Actually I’d settle for a flaccid one because presently we women don’t even get a single view. I know that we allegedly have a decent imagination but sometimes, you just want the bare truth in front of you, which is what men get with a beautiful or sexual woman.

Finally, there is another issue that I think ought to be considered, and this is probably a slightly more controversial thought. Women sell products. Beautiful women sell beautiful products but they are not just selling them to men.
The advertisers might be far more liberated than the rest of society. It is possible that these Saatchi and Saatchi bods accept that the fact women buy products advertised by beautiful or sexual women because they are actually attracted to them.
They are not selling bras to men. They are selling them to women, and it is the women, us, that are turned on by seeing a decent pair of boobies smothered in M&S’s best, hoping that we look as good in them. Alternatively, we might even be enticed by the boobs and wonder what it might be like to feel inside that bra and savour the touch of a silky, softness of a pert tit.
It’s just a thought!

This subject possibly has an exhaustive list of pros and cons and I would welcome further thoughts from readers.

In essence, all I want is some equality in our sexuality. I can accept beautiful things selling beautiful products. I can potentially accept female sexuality being used to sell things if people are positively embracing rather than using such sexuality and I can also accept women being used to sell things to us if men and their sexuality can be used too, though I still have concern about using the wonderment of sexuality to sell anything. As I said, it’s complicated.

Because when all is said and done, it’s simply time to just get on and accept the very significant part that sex and sexuality plays in our lives, and if we accept advertising and commercialism as part of that (if we really have to) then let’s at least have something enjoyable to feast our eyes on.

And so back to Vulva!

I want that body in so many ways!

But I also want to turn someone on with my very own sweet fragrance, which apparently is in abundance if fingered properly.
I could go into my very own business of natural Vulva, if only I could work out a way of preserving it before it goes off.

Mmmm – what does out of date cum smell like?
