A stuffed shirt, but great in bed

A sure indication that your idea has a touch of genius is this: it makes other people slap hand~to~forehead and exclaim, but of course!! I wish *I'd* thought of that...

This one made me do that. And my first thought was:

Brilliant! I've always had a thing for men's shirts... and now I have a use for them.

My second thought was:

On the other hand, that's a pretty psychologically incriminating thing to find in somebody's bed. Oh that? That's my headless, sexless, inanimate boyfriend~substitute. Shake hands with Mr. Canoodle.

My third thought was:

While the idea of a man's torso lying in my bed is a bit creepy, for some reason I have no problem with the idea of having a row of them along my couch.

{Well, you know, there are pillows you want to take to bed with you, and then there are pillows you just like as friends.}

I'd be very tempted to sew little fabric canapes and martini glasses for them to hold during parties. And then I could spend all night telling them how simply fabulous they are.

And I'll leave you with this last thought:

If I were in the sex toy business, I would definitely swoop down on this idea. Imagine, a matching gift set of pillow and phallus ~ I'd call it "Dick & Dickie" and bill it as "The Kit That Cuddles You Afterwards." :}

Maybe around the Christmas season I'd throw in a couple Feng Shui candles and call it "Sensitive New Age Guy"...

.

... I wonder if one has the choice of a righty or lefty? Or, for people like me, who keep switching sides of the bed, both?
