There's already a thread on this in chat, but thought we could do with one here too.

femfresh

Again, like the Girly Girls Love Science When It Means You Can Wear Make-UP!! campaign, this has had a lot of negative feedback. Post it on your FB wall, post on their wall, let them know that their useless product and shitty marketing is an abomination.

"MoobMagic"

it has a nice flourish to it..

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 25/06/2012 00:16

You could branch out and do Builders Bumcrack and a product for larger men with chests Wheezo.

Wheezo · 25/06/2012 00:05

And with that resounding vote of confidence AF, I begin drafting my letter of resignation! Wink

Feminine hygiene products pfffffft.

Also went femfresh website and their tagline is "Whatever you call it, love it" which goes back to the thread in chat I think on naming female genitals - so basically a vagina/vulva is now "IT" - marked contrast to the out there and proud Fresh Balls huh? Eugh, so creepily coy.

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 23:57

I think it's a goer Grin

Wheezo · 24/06/2012 23:55

How could a small start-up bottling diluted dettol as intimate hygiene products an entrepreneur such as myself possibly hope to compete with that?

This is where my competitive streak is going to have to really step up

I give you FragrantHoles for $98.99 as an annual freshening blitz package (multi-use for the ladies) and FreshAppendages for $98.99 (couples can share/will dettol fragrantise whatever bits n bobs you choose - not recommended for internal usage). Men are going to have to choose whether they want a fragrant areshole or fresh balls unless they want to pay close to $200 for the privilege. Women will realise armpit deodorant is a cheaper product for their upper body ishoos.

Being an ethical business I don't wish to start making babies feel like they have reached puberty before they're out of nappies so I'm not recommending any of my products for babies.

All of it however works on next door's dogs and cats.

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 24/06/2012 23:42

Wheezo, you didn't say they have packages where you can order a year's supply of Fresh Balls or Fresh Breasts in one go and get a free t-shirt... only $99.99

I'm actually crying here.

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 23:40

< rolling >

Wheezo · 24/06/2012 23:37

OMG Indeed. I actually went to the online webshop www.freshballs.com/us/

and discovered the bottling was a lot more, ahem, tasteful than my Anne Summersesque/bad hen night vision but who the fuck do they think is going to wear those t-shirts?

Really? I can't see the FemFresh page (nonFB) but are there t-shirts promoting femfresh with a big arrow pointing to one's groin area declaring "Fresh Vag" or "I need fresh vag" with sweaty athletic men wearing crop tops and tight shorts with their hands bound up for knuckle fighting/boxing training?

Also sadly, having found an equivalent (if unknown) product for men, this company is also peddling "Fresh Breasts" because everyone knows who unsavourily sweaty cleavage is and like a vagina deserves their own particular deodorant lest they start to fester? Damn. Have these people not worked out just how anatomically close breasts are to armpits? so that even should the unthinkable occur and one's breasts actually stink, the armpit deodorant wouldn't just mask that as well?

Fresh Baby's Bottom is also available because we know how stinky and sweaty babies are! Hmm

Looks like FragrantArsehole is the only niche in the market left (pun partially intended but doesn't really work). And every one has one of those so it cuts across gender/age/perhaps even species

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 24/06/2012 23:37

I don't want to think about it AF!

Obviously a problem that is rarely discussed in public.

flyingfool, is verified as having purchased the product. He says:
My balls have never felt better, If you have any balls at all you should try this product. It changed my like now I can get back to performing delicate surgery instead scratching all the time

I have no words...

Cockwomble · 24/06/2012 23:36

The only time I whiff is the mornin after condom free sex with dh. I take great delight in telling him is HIS sperm that's made it stinky not due to ladies having fishy fans!Grin

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 23:30

how do you "deal" with your husband's balls ?

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 24/06/2012 23:29

I'm liking Caroline M's review best:

This product really works. I dont mind dealing with my husbands balls after he uses fresh balls. May have saved my marriage.

Might not class as feminist, but good for you Caroline!

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 23:29

hehe

no UK retailer ?

I sense a franchise comin' on...

HmmThinkingAboutIt · 24/06/2012 23:28

Actually I can't find a UK retailer....

Gets a good rating on Amazon.com though. Going for $12.99...

The customer reviews are pretty damn good too. There's definitely a market for this stuff!!!

omg

Girls sorry to burst your Dragon's Den bubble but:

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 23:05

heh

Wheezo · 24/06/2012 22:57

Obviously the packaging will be suitably shaped and the Large value pack cannister of BreezyBalls will actually be travel-sized so everyone gets to feel good (after all, there is no way a Dorothy Perkins size 14 is actually a size 14 so what's good for the slightly overweight goose is good for the slightly less well endowed gander)

yellowraincoat · 24/06/2012 22:56

As Sarah Silverman says, if you have just washed and your vagina still smells, you don't need vaginal deodorant - you need a doctor.

OP posts:
AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 22:52

I like your style, wheezo

and FWIW, the aroma of fresh, healthy vag should be a turn-on for a real man

and if it isn't...get rid of the fucker, don't dose yourself up with Shake'N'Vag, fgs

yellowraincoat · 24/06/2012 22:51

What I don't get is why fannies have the fishy reputation when it is more often MEN who have the smelly cock.

Get the Breezy Balls out, lads.

OP posts:
Wheezo · 24/06/2012 22:46

Shit AF....have I had my one and only Dragons' Den moment on a public forum?

Well this is the thing innit? Why do vaginas have this stinky reputation? Admittedly I have no knowledge of anyone else's close-up but what is this fishy connotation that is a regular playground taunt? TMI but periods to me are metallic (blood) - and obviously a shower a day keeps the metal away - but the rest of the time well....s'all a bit meh - certainly nothing objectionable (although having said that xP did say I smelt of oestrogen when pregnant which could be true - if either of us even knew what that smelt of)

But well I have had the misfortunate to encounter more than one offputtingly smelly appendage one to whom I did mention the Dr to

AnyFucker · 24/06/2012 21:48

ha-haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

fucking brilliant, wheezo

I don't see the BreezyBalls being given the fucking hard sell

Oi ! Blokes ! Your cock niffs of cheese ! Use this product or you are not a proper man! (or other similar shit)

Wheezo · 24/06/2012 20:38

Is there an equivalent anti-smeg/breezyballs product for men out there? I've never seen one but then I probably don't browse the right bits of Boots/Superdrug to notice.

TheKnackeredChef · 23/06/2012 21:34

I wish it were! Though somehow I doubt it. Grin
