'Vaginas R' Us' Billboard Angers Some In LA

POSTED: 11:51 am EDT August 8, 2005

LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles strip club owner Howard White isn't winning any new friends with his billboard.

An ad for White's Century Lounge reads "Vaginas R' Us."

A local business group is complaining. But one city councilman said vagina isn't an obscene word, so there's little officials can do.

However, White has had to take down his sign temporarily, though not because of the wording. City inspectors cited the sign for a fire code violation. It was made of combustible vinyl. But officials of a sign company tell the Los Angeles Times White has already ordered a new "Vaginas R' Us" billboard.

It may not be illegal, but it's certainly in poor taste and pretty crude, even by strip club standards. I'd probably drive my car off the road laughing if i saw it though :lol:

it sounds to me as if this guy just has a really misguided sense of humor. I think his motto should be "G-Strings R Us" thats funnier

Now all they need to do is get Nashville Pussy as their house band.

i don't know why people get all worked up over words.

gawd, who cares if this guy wants to call his place 'vaginas r us'? but i have to say i am offended...because of the sheer lack of originality put into the name.
