I'm not going to buy an iPad, but I still use, er, pads. Now I'm thinking, "anyone with a vagina", thanks to the modern convenience that is underwear. So everyone except vagina'd people who go commando and gay men, I guess? I don't understand how these folks have apparently never heard of mousepads, or helicopter pads, or thumbpads, or any of the other *pads that you don't hear menstrual jokes about. Weird stuff.

(And I'm not talking about the underrepresented word 'Vulva'!) When my daughter was 5 or 6, I was going to a rehearsal for the Vagina Monologues when she asked, "When can I see you in the Vagina Catalogs?" Classic. In any case, iPad probably isn't the best branding for a product when you have another product called the iPod. Ah, the V word. (And I’m not talking about the underrepresented word ‘Vulva’!)
