The Rose has taken over Antiguan men

Happy Meetings. Great reunions. That’s what the carefully packed label says, with a rose on the box. It is the number one selling product on Amazon and according to surveys, 46 out of 50 women in Antigua and Barbuda own “The Rose”.

It is a sex toy that has somehow overtaken men. This is in no way bashing the male and the organ made for pleasure but the women we interviewed confessed that their new lover; The Rose, has somewhat overtaken their husbands and partner

“There are cat scratches on my bathroom wall. They are from my nails. It represents the pleasure The Rose brings and I am not ashamed about it,” a woman told Antigua.news

The suction toy which is sweeping households has been the holy grail of toys and has users obsessed.

“I bought one because all my friends have one. Even well-respected women in high places own a rose. It is just a must-have,” a proud user said, claiming that she “gets there” in 5 seconds.

One woman even claimed that she broke up with her boyfriend after she bought The Rose. “To be honest I don’t even think men are necessary. And if they go then the Rose is always there,” she said.

Another joked that she would have to consult her Rose before she ventures into any relationship. “Whomever it is would have to be able to bring me that 4 seconds of pleasure,” she laughed

But not everyone is as dazzled by the rose toy. One woman told our newsroom that it is a devil’s tool.

“That makes no sense. We were created to be intimate with humans, not toys. It brings nothing to the table other than a quick fix which is essentially what the world is into these days,” a lady said, admitting that she “would never waste her money on such nonsense”

Some men we interviewed could care less about the toy, saying that they would rather have their ladies own The Rose than a real “keep man”
