"stop sending butt plugs to Bahrain."
"We didn't even know it (the product) was going to Bahrain until it came back to us months later, and it just kind of unraveled this whole... hilarious moment,"
"I mean, we don't judge, we want everyone to order whatever they want and we want everyone to feel confident and start shopping for whatever they want."
"But, there is a juxtaposition of a military person in a foreign country ordering butt plugs and having no understanding that those items are illegal in the country that they're in,"
Two packages containing sex toys were returned from a US naval base in Bahrain to a Toronto sex toy shop, accompanied by Pentagon letters stating that pornographic materials or devices are not allowed into the Kingdom of Bahrain. The shop, Bonjibon, does not ship to Bahrain and believes the orders were placed abroad and forwarded to Navy personnel stationed in Bahrain. Cofounder Grace Bennett described discovering the letters as a hilarious and bewildering moment. She emphasized that the shop does not judge customers and expressed surprise that service members might be unaware of local prohibitions. The Pentagon's Transportation Command lists prohibited items for Bahrain.
