That crazy Park Slope [1] is at it again – there's another showdown between the stroller pushers and the riotous adults. The Brooklyn neighborhood has welcomed the adult–sex–toy shop Babeland [2] down the street from the tot clothing shop Gymboree and not everyone is thrilled about it.
Parent of a four–year-old son, Bruce Osborne told the New York Post [3]:
I don't think it's the ideal location for a provocative business.
Another mum said [4]:
I don't think it's a great idea.
Me thinks some of those parents may secretly want to purchase a few adult items as they try to bring sexy back [5] to their relationships. But maybe they'd rather order it off the Internet behind a safe screen.
What would you think if a sex shop opened near your Gymboree or baby store?
