"The Flirty Pole" - Are you kidding Me!!!!

I happened to see an ad on TV this morning that left me slack jawed - for an exercise video. Practice your sexy moves like you see in your favorite video...or like an EXOTIC dancer!! Are you kidding? You can even buy your own "Flirty Pole" (aka stripper pole) for your house for $19.99. Practice your chair (or lap) dance all in your own home and all while getting your body in the best shape of its life.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!!?

All in the thinly veiled guise of getting in shape and losing weight (lets prey on our insecurities, especially teen girls).

APPALLING

Honestly, I really thought I could not be shocked by TV commercials after the extenxse ads, but here I am at breakfast with my boys (yes, we watch VH1 during breakfast) and here is this commercial. I can't decide if I am outraged or just really sad that the world has come to this.

I told my boys if they know any girls with a Flirty pole - they are grounded!!
