(this should sell lots of these...lol)

Or rather, maybe they were merely bored and lethargic and sitting around in another corporate stupor trying to think of a way to sucker more people into the disposable-razor vortex, until someone said "Let's stick a battery in it and make it vibrate so women will forever associate our cheap-ass shaving products with, uh, masturbation," and the overpaid boss yawned "Done" and everyone went for vodka tonics and Valium. That's my guess.
How can we tell, by the way, that this thing is a vibrator in disguise? I mean, besides the hot smooth fleshy pinkness and the rounded penile tip and besides the fact that the portion of the razor's handle that vibrates most powerfully is actually the large, rounded end without the razor blades on it?
That's easy. Just look at the men's version.
Oh yes, men have a vibrating Gillette razor too. It's called the Mach3 Power Nitro (because men are just that stupid) and it's black and neon green and full of ridges and cheesy ultramodern design cues, and it's clearly designed to look like some futuristic race-car gearshift or something, and of course it's the exact same goddamn razor as the Venus, except the men don't talk up the gentle sensual Soothing Vibrations™ factor one bit. Oh my no.
