Well, walking down the bustling Queen Street, I simply had to satisfy my curiosity when I saw the Condom Shack from the other side of the street. I was thinking, maybe it will be like the Sex Museum in Amsterdam where I "happened" to walk in to ask for directions. ^wink, wink^ So, when I was walking back to my hotel, I took Queen Street and walked on the same side as the Condom Shack; as I got closer to the store I started singing the song "Love Shack" in my head.
(Oh, I was reminiscing about the group dinner at a restaurant in Bangkok called "Cabbages and Condoms" where a group of me and my fellow American exchange students had our farewell dinner. http://www.virtualtourist.com/travel/Asia/Thailand/Central_Eastern_Thailand/Bangkok-1445238/Restaurants-Bangkok-Cabbages_and_Condoms-BR-1.html We all thought it was a sex club but it's actually a very legitimate nice restaurant.)
I go inside and found various items (condoms and other "fun" products") on display on the walls and racks (he, he, pun intended). Hell, what the heck. The ladies who were working in the store probably have seen tourists act strangely inside the shop and amuse themselves watching the tourists trying to act cool and be nonchalant but furtively looking and checking out the products.
It makes sense that there would be flavored condoms -- interesting to see some wild and exotic fruit flavors. Interesting looking toys, too. ^cough, cough^
A few minutes later, several American tourists walked in. (We Americans are loud and want to be seen and heard when we travel as tourists; actually, TO is almost like NYC. I think I ran into more Americans in TO than I usually do in Manhattan, NY.) Some of the new comers (ladies) entertained themselves and their BF's on the dance pole. One lady was pretty good (I was tempted to join her BF and start handing out dollar bills, Canadian, of course, but all Canadian dollars are in coins. Besides, her BF was much bigger than me); the other lady must have had too much to drink as she kept falling down on her butt and laughing hysterically.
Some of the fruit flavors sounded interesting so . . . .
