National Security Threat Leads to Cypriot Vibrator Ban
Stumble it!The Love Bug 2, a radio-controlled vibrator made by Ann Summers, has been declared a threat to national security in Cyprus. This stunning declaration comes following fears that the sex toy’s electronic waves may disrupt military radio frequencies.
According to an Ann Summers spokesman in the UK, the Love Bug 2 only has a range of six meters - and at present, the device is still on sale in Cyprus but the product literature has been updated to include the phrase “Not for use in Cyprus”.
Though military officials on the island have refused to comment on their reasons for banning the device, a spokesman from the government’s Communications and Works Ministry said: “They were banned before we even had a chance to check them, but if issues of national security are at stake, then it is not surprising.”
“It’s a shame, but we have to honor the request and we’ve made it clear that the Love Bug is not for sale in Cyprus,” says Lizzie Eddleston from the Ann Summers press office in the UK. “We have told locals that we have a lot of other devices that are not banned which will satisfy their needs. After all, it’s better to make love, not war.”
