OK, kids, today’s story would appear to be from within the realm of “Are you f—king kidding me!?”
But no, we are not kidding you…. A British sex toy company has opened the first “male stress relief booth” in New York City, “designed to give the busy Manhattan man the privacy, and the high-speed Internet connection, he deserves.”
Or, to put it in layman’s terms: A British sex toy company has opened the first masturbatio READ MORE
