“just for girls” Ouija board!

[ccharles000]

by Hannah Tennant-Moore

Does your daughter have a burning desire to play Ouija board? But clearly she can’t since the game is totally for boys? Well, for only $19.99, you can make your daughter’s dream come true, because Hasbro just came out with a new “just for girls” Ouija board!

What makes this edition different from the original Ouija board that can be handmade in minutes? I’ll give you one guess. You got it: It’s pink!

Not only that, but this new edition also comes with 72 question cards, since a big problem for young girls is that they always freeze up when it’s their turn to ask a ghost a personal question about their lives.

According to the product description, girls needn’t worry their pretty little heads any longer:

It has always been mysterious. It has always been mystifying. And now the OUIJA Board is just for you, girl. With 72 fun questions included, you'll never run out of things to ask. Who will call/text me next? Will I be a famous actor someday? Who wishes they could trade places with me?

1. It's satanic and sexist all at the same time.

I know what somebody's getting for next Christmas. :think:

[Sebastian Doyle]

33. And in a related promotion, Satan gave some of his demons a makeover

Now THAT is Satanic and sexist! What girl wouldn't sell her soul to look like that? :sarcasm::evilgrin:

2. I'm pretty sure that the only people I knew who actually had...

Ouija boards when I was a kid were girls. They need "special" boards marketed toward them now?

[CrispyQ]

28. LOL!

That is such a good point! I didn't know any boys that had a Ouija board!

on edit: I would not have wanted a pink Ouija board!

3. What? Does it have little breasts on it or something?

Never heard of such a thing.

[arcadian]

4. There aren't enough young girls involved in the dark arts.

5. is that $19.99, or $19.99 and the blood of a virgin?

[HeresyLives]

6. Sigh.

It's because of stupid things like this that I came to hate the color pink.

[MineralMan]

8. I noticed in the Spring Bass Pro Shops catalog that they are now

selling fishing reals that are a nice Pepto-Bismol pink. I guess they're after the women anglers with those. How odd.

All the women anglers I know wouldn't be caught dead with something like that.

[Arkansas Granny]

13. Maybe they can use those pretty pink reels while they are sporting this outfit.

[MineralMan]

14. That camouflage only works at the Pepto Bismol factory

[HeresyLives]

20. Where would anyone wear pink camouflage???

Hiding amongst the candy floss at a fairground?

[HeresyLives]

21. Pink fishing rods, pink hammers, pink motorcycles....

the list of things they've ruined with the color pink is endless.

[hyphenate]

19. I know!

I hate it too! Everywhere you go, it's expected that girls like pink. To me, it's the ugliest color in a full spectrum. Except for hot pink, which kind of has a personality.

30. Mr Hot Pink...

I lived with a guy who wasn't afraid to wear hot pink (back in the 1990s) and bright lime green, as well.

It actually looked good on him

[pipi_k]

29. Oooh, I hear ya....

I despise pink.

Bubble gum pink...hot pink...baby pink...skybluepink (my mom's name for when the evening sky turns pink and purple)

Unfortunately, my two young granddaughters are still in that "girly pink" stage, and I literally cringe whenever I have to buy them toys or whatever.

[leftofcool]

7. Does it come with a little pink 8 ball that answers all questions?

[RadiationTherapy]

9. My daughter got one for christmas.

It is called 'the Magic Date Ball'. She is 8.

[defendandprotect]

10. What does the boy's version have ... just out of curiosity? A real Ouija board?

Endless sexist game playing!!! Wow!

[arcadian]

11. The boys version actually opens a portal into Hell.

Guess they felt girls wouldn't be strong enough to take that.

[ccharles000]

12. lol

[lumberjack_jeff]

16. Kewl.

Do not touch the shiny candy-like button! Who could resist?

[RevCheesehead]

22. Obviously, it has a penis.

The center of all being.

[Edweird]

24. I never seen one owned by a guy.

[mitchum]

31. That's because you have never been to my house

I'm a grizzled old guy
and I collect the things

[Edweird]

32. Ok, you got me on a technicality.

However, none of my 'spooky' male friends own one as far as I know. Only the 'spooky' female ones - that I'm aware of. These would be for personal use/accessorizing not antique collecting.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

15. I've never been more angry with rage.

[lumberjack_jeff]

17. LOL, That is saying a great deal. n/t

[hyphenate]

18. **gag**

How appallingly patronizing! I was playing with the Ouija LONG ago, and I think the thought of a PINK board is just disgusting and chauvinistic.

Are Pugs into the esoteric? Or are they trying to cash in on the paranormal world?

Seriously, how creepy! I find the sellers of such a product to be even more scary than whatever they might find on the board.

[Edweird]

23. Pink? Really? Lame-o. Flat black with blood red letters - that's cool. .

Make the little triangle thingy out of silver and I'd buy one just as a decoration.

Really, I've only known females to own them anyway, so this whole 'just for girls' nonsense is kinda stupid.

[nolabear]

25. C'mon girls. Captain Howdy is your friend...

[ZombieHorde]

26. The blog is twisting the situation, Toys 'R' Us' other Ouji board is very similar.

27. 72 questions? One for each virgin?

why is it that chicks always have to have their own stuff in pink? Normal guy things aren't good enough? :sarcasm:
