Anne Summers has alot to answer for (and we mean more than women having annoying parties and giggling like…. well girls)…
The following cautionary tale must surely rate in the top five of “most embarrassing things that can happen to you in public - ever”. According to UK tabloid the Sun, a 33-year-old Welsh housewife ended up in hospital after wearing Ann Summers vibrating Passion Pants to her local Asda supermarket in Swansea.
Unfortunately, she became “so aroused by the 2½-inch vibrating bullet inside that she fainted” then “fell against shelves and banged her head”. This prompted the attendance of the paramedics who “found the black leatherette panties still buzzing”. Having disabled the orgasmatronic underwear, they then whisked the senseless shopper to hospital where she made a complete recovery. Staff handed her back the Passion Pants upon discharge, discretely concealed in a plastic bag.
To its credit, the Sun does not name the woman. We assume, however, that she will be shopping at her local Tesco for the next ten years or so, or until everyone in the Asda who witnessed her ordeal is dead or has succumbed to total amnesia - whichever comes soonest.
For the record, Ann Summers notes that Passion Pants are “Not for internal use”. Now we know why.
Nasty, next time you are in the supermarket and see some haggard old dear looking faint, you know what she’s up too!
