Clean-up on Aisle 3
At at time when many Americans seem down on our traditional allies, the French (to the point of renaming French fries on restaurant menus? Oh, c'mon!), I thought it might be beneficial to international relations to tell you about one of Paris's newest shopping destinations. Rebecca Rils is a sex supermarket —um, "Supermarche Erotique" —in the Pigalle quarter, Paris's red-light district. And while most of Pigalle's sex district is old world seedy (as interpreted by Hollywood), with pimps and peep shows, bars and bouncers, the sex supermarket is big, new, and brightly-lit. Think of it as a Target with dildos. It even has shopping carts. So, if war is averted and tourism resumes, be sure to put it on your next Paris itenerary.FYI. At least in Paris, flesh-colored sex toys are out and gold vibes are in, in, in!
