Vibe check: Montana sex shop giving away vibrators to women who vote


A sex shop owner in Montana has a plan to “make America orgasm again.”

Billy McWilliams, who runs Erotique adult store in Bozeman, Montana, devised a patriotic promotion to encourage women to vote in the upcoming election — while also addressing a vastly overlooked gender disparity in this country: the so-called “orgasm gap.”

In an effort to inspire civic duty while also inspiring gender equality in the bedroom (or wherever), the 60-year-old businessman told SWNS he will give away 2,200 red, white and blue vibrators to American women who pledge to vote on Nov. 3, in an event he dubbed “the Great American Orgasm.”

“It’s not a Republican orgasm or a Democrat orgasm, it’s an American orgasm,” he said. “Someone has to help us come together.”

McWilliams has already mailed out 400 of the gaudy gifts, which come with an American flag sticker that also reads, “I came and I voted.”

“They are bullet vibrators and retail at around $12.95,” he said. “It’s small, it’s powerful, it takes a triple-A battery and it comes in red, white and blue.”

The 2020 general election is critical, said McWilliams, “and the more people who vote, the better for our democracy.”

But the political push is more than just a “get out the vote” campaign, as McWilliams also hopes to bring attention to a sexual injustice that plagues millions of unsatisfied American women.

“We are under-orgasming, particularly women,” he said.

“Fourteen percent of women in the United States have never had an orgasm,” he claimed. “Out of every three orgasms, men have two and women only have one. We have a fixable problem.”

“Some women will never get a vibrator because they don’t want to put it on their credit card,” he added. “This vibrator is an easy, discreet, no judgment sex toy and it makes women’s lives better.”

While also advocating for mental health, McWilliams suggested that vibrators are a fast and effective tool for managing anxiety during the pandemic.

“In these stressful times, everybody needs a little or a big orgasm — what the heck else are they doing?” he said. “This is our COVID stress relief.”

That Uplifting Tweet You Just Shared? A Russian Troll Sent It

Here’s what Russia’s 2020 disinformation operations look like, according to two experts on social media and propaganda. By   DARREN LINVILL   &   PATRICK WARREN Internet trolls don’t troll. Not the professionals at least. Professional trolls don’t go on social media to antagonize liberals or belittle conservatives. They are not narrow minded, drunk or angry. They don’t lack basic English language skills. They certainly aren’t  “somebody sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds,”  as the president once put it. Your stereotypical trolls do exist on social media, but the amateurs aren’t a threat to Western democracy. Professional trolls, on the other hand, are the tip of the spear in the new digital, ideological battleground. To combat the threat they pose, we must first understand them — and take them seriously.

The Nightmare Scenario That Keeps Election Lawyers Up At Night -- And Could Hand Trump A Second Term

The Nightmare Scenario That Keeps Election Lawyers Up At Night -- And Could Hand Trump A Second Term   (Photo: Photos: Getty Images) Americans will almost certainly go to bed on Nov. 3 without knowing who won the presidential election. Since millions of people will vote by mail, constraints on time and resources will slow ballot counting into potentially a weeks-long process. Voting patterns suggest it’s likely that President  Donald Trump  could end Election Day in the lead in certain key states, only to be overtaken by Democratic opponent  Joe Biden  when more votes are tallied.  This could create a nightmare scenario during the three months stretching from Election Day to the Jan. 20 inauguration: a battle on the state and congressional level over who is the legitimate winner. This could include Congress reconvening on Jan. 6, presided over by Vice President  Mike Pence , with no consensus over its potential role in choosing the next president. This is arguably the most likely of th

Philosophical Question #14 – Lifestyle Choices

Image
Here is an interesting question in my list of philosophical questions: 1.) Should governments have penalties for those who live unhealthy lifestyles? A list of unhealthy lifestyles would include things like smoking, drinking, illegal drugs, prostitution, and other “vice” type activities. I guess the “government penalties” would be referring to monetary punishments, withholding medical treatments (insurance companies would love that), possibly imposing/regulating very high (exorbitant) prices on things considered unhealthy in order to cut down on their use, and other possibilities. 2.) Or, would you say that living an unhealthy lifestyle, likely resulting in a LOT of eventual personal pain and suffering, should be punishment enough for unhealthy lifestyles? When people make bad choices in life, often in their youth where ignorance and immediate gratification takes them over,  3.) Should a society be obligated to help "fix" them, by way of tax money?   Is that part of
