Politically Incorrect Swizzle Sticks

The auction for these stir sticks ends in just a few hours (so if you want 'em, bid now!), so I figured I'd best borrow the photo and comment as quickly as I can.

I've never seen these before, and I am completely charmed -- in an utterly perverted sense of the word 'charmed', I am sure, but nevertheless, I love these! As a collector, these non-PC items thrill me. As a woman, I am both horrified and amused by the depictions of the aging process... I'd like to add that while these are about black folks, I'd be equally enthralled if these women were white. But they are not. Undoubtedly, as Black Americana, they will get 3 times the final bid of white chicks too. But on to my horror & delight...

If you look closely, inside each woman's abdomen (or uterus) is a number, her age. Note at 15 how firm her breasts are, but at 30, they begin to droop... let's not even talk about 40. And apparently, women look so bad after 40, there's no sense in making a swizzle stick.

I think I need a drink after this ;)

PS I found these by watching the ebay feed on the sidebar -- that thing will be the death of my bank account yet.
