Reason #155 – I let my son play in a disturbingly anatomical playground
Reason #155 – I let my son play in a disturbingly anatomical playground
May 04I must ask: who EVER designs these things??
Against my better judgment, I take C regularly to play at a park with a playground based on an intimate portrait of Jenna Jameson, interpreted by Salvador Dali and produced by Hugh Hefner.
The thing is blood-curdling.
Seriously.
Whenever I have to climb into it to help the boy go down the slides or through a tunnel I feel like I’m being reborn, if you get my drift.
Basically my son plays in a gigantic, distorted model of a vagina, clitoris and all.
The council member who approved the purchase of this thing should be seriously investigated. Fella’s got issues of the worst possible kind, because only someone with a very dirty mind could see this thing and think it is appropriate for children.
Even pedobear likes it!
Now what kind of mother would I let her kid play there??
That shit puts Georgia O’Keeffe to shame!
Eeep.

I had to stare at this for a very long time before seeing what you were talking about. But don’t let that convince you I’m not perverted. In fact, I think I’m even worse because I see the opposite body part EVERYWHERE, while not recognizing this one. (Seriously, some examples that I have thought were blatantly obvious I’ve giggled about to my husband, only to learn that somehow he had remained completely unaware of what it resembled. How is that supposed to make me feel?)

Ha! Ew. Hey, I’m all for artistic expression and ‘whimsy’ as it were, but that thing is just wrong.

My pleasure! Especially when I get comments like this! :)

I think I see an ovarian cyst on the side of it.

It is most certainly unhealthy!

Um, wow. That’s a seriously messed up play structure.

Tell me about it! I have to avert my eyes whenever we’re in the park, which is pretty often!
These days I’m all about the swings just to stay away from Jenna…

Thank you! My husband says I have the dirtiest mind!

Good Lord. Looking at that thing, I’m scared it’s going to sprout a boil when the playground’s ovulating.

Exactly! And what if the kids rub it the wrong way – or, heavens forbid, the right one? *shudder*
