It was a lovely spring day. My man and I had decided we would join some friends digging through other people’s old stuff at a neighborhood garage sale. My first purchase was a pair of hot pink shorts for my 6 year old daughter. And honestly, my mission that day was to find a dresser for my son’s room, so I was really only looking for good clothes for the kiddies, or something unique. I think the sex flashcards definitely fit into the ‘unique’ category.

I actually didn’t find them, my boyfriend did; but when he showed them to me, I could not resist…I don’t even remember how much I paid. They are hilarious and my favorite is actually the copyright card. It has a big (c) on the ‘flash’ side, and on the answer side, it reads:

Perfunctory Disclaimer(s):
Sex can result n pregnancy and/or sexually transmitted diseases, some of which are fatal. Use caution when thinking about sex, watching other people have sex, or actually having sex yourself. Despite the fact that your kids probably know more about sex than you do, these cards are intended for adults. If you bought these cards jut to see how offensive they are and intend to stage some sort of extortionary retailer boycott such as those promulgated by bullies of the Christian right, get a life, preferably a sex life; you were very well forewarned by the packaging, and in the United States people are still allowed to believe, sell, and buy things that differ from your own narrow viewpoint not to mention the fact that many of you are hypocrites and 53% of Promise Keepers admit to having viewed pornography in the last week. Finally, these cards are for fun and education only–do not have sex with them.

I did buy a few other things that day too:
-An old wooden drawer (my mom does crafty things with the and it was only $1)
-Some shoes (I like shoes )
-Some cute little plates (my daughter and I love little plates for serving snacky type things when we cook.
-And a dresser for my son (which road the 40ish mile ride home hanging out of the trunk of my 2000 Dodge Intrepid–I should share that story some time…)

Overall, the garage sale-ing day was fun, and the cards provided some fun evening entertainment for my man and I. Plus, now they are a part of my collection, to be passed down from generation to generation

P.S. There was a URL on the box, so I went to it…you too can have your own sex flashcards for only $7.75 by going to www.knockknock.biz. AND, it seems this is just one of a series, including “Corporate Flashcards” and “Slang Flashcards.”
