Shopping with Blobby

Yet another installment in the drudgery that is everyday shopping. The camera-phone makes it a bit more fun - though I get looks whenever I take pics of products. Like I care what people think!  


Admittedly, I know enough about women's anatomy to be dangerous. Not Brett Kavanaugh dangerous, but like spouting knowledge with any degree of certainty. 

So in a way, I am just like a straight white male.  ....except I don't need to control a woman's body. So maybe I'm not like a straight white male. 

Anyhoo.......this popped up in my amazon feed. 





For the life of me, I had not idea women and coumunity pools had some much in common!  ....except for the fact you can get pregnant in one!

I'll give you the full description - as I must.

At-Home Vaginal pH Test Kit: 30 Strips + 30 Individually Wrapped Swabs - Fast & Accurate Feminine Health Monitoring for pH Balance, BV & Yeast Infection - Professional Grade


Let's start with, I have zero idea what 'BV' stands for. Yes, that's where I'm starting. 

Other than drinking cranberry juice and a scrub brush, what does one do for a yeast infection?  


I kid. I kid. I know there are probably pills and salves and the likes. 

Probably. 

Still, pH?  I see nothing about chlorine, so maybe a vagina is not just like pool maintenance. Though they both seem like a lot of work. 

30 strips?  How many yeast infections must one get to use a box of these?

I'm not even sure I should touch on 'professional grade'?  Makes me wonder what kind of other items are out there which are not 'professional'. 

I feel like this ranks up at something in the Walgreens aisles to forgo actual medical care - like the 'lost filling repair kit' for less than $7.00. Have we not seen the drill scene in Marathon Man to know one must go to a dentist ?? A real one?

Ditto with a GP or OB-GYN Kenobi. 


Anyway, for the low low price of $9.99 - this can be yours. C'mon - that's $0.33 a swab.

I think your vagina is worth that.
