Audio-Technica announces designer ear buds for the womenfolk

Audio-Technica's new range of attractive, pastel-colored earbuds have been "created especially for women," a creative PR euphemism belying the underlying technology's true import: the first headphones capable of transmitting sound through vaginal walls to the mysterious "uterine" ear that has mystified anatomists for centuries.

What, so I have to wear a dress in order to use these? Not that I mind doing so, it's just the principle of the thing.

IIRC my wife bought some of these last year. The ear canal pads were always coming off the headphones and then a cable broke loose. Far lower quality than other AT products I've bought in the past.
