I'm sure all those living in San Francisco tend to forget that there's, oh, a South and a Midwest where it's impossible to find things sex-positive: people, toys, products, attitude. If they mean to expand the Good Vibrations brand (and I'd be surprised if they didn't, as that brand holds a lot of weight with women), they might do some good by expanding the market outside of those liberal urban enclaves. It makes good business sense, and it could be a positive thing for the marketplace through more innovation, more choice, and better product. Again, sorry for sounding like a corporate whore, but competition breeds choice in the marketplace and here in the Midwest, we have crappy choices. I want better ones.
