The Hot Tub Fantasy

September 21st, 2010 by

Years ago I put on a Jacuzzi Dealer conference and I used a film clip from a movie where the actor said “a hot tub filled with Peptobismo”  was part of his sexual fantasy.   The crowd  laughed with a few soft feminine gasps thus indicating their shock at something like this was said out loud.    I was working, so I had to hide my slight enjoyment at the reaction of few sensitive types in the crowd.

A few days ago, I had a comment from a lady who didn’t like my failing to mention the family aspect of hot tubs, which is an important fact, it just wasn’t relevant to what I was talking about.   What it did cause me to think about how different men and women do view hot tubs, and how different age groups look at the product category.  VMAs for example had the Jersey Shore Cast in a hot tub in which the host gets in and leaves the hot tub seconds later pregnant.

As men I think we always have some greater association with sex in a hot tub, no matter what age.  Seems natural when you think about.  Yes, it’s also relaxing and social. Yes, it’s creates quality time and communication.  But really, there is always a boyish excitement to jumping in the hot tub with your gal (my wife in my world) and not because I am looking forward to communication.  Seems pretty organic to me but then again I’m just a guy inside and out.

I read Dad Gone Mad’s blog often and by chance he mentioned a potential dream of his involving a hot tub.   Worth a read and it selfishly proves my point.  Men like hot tubs for many reasons, sex being one of the better reasons.

    I’ll tell you, from the perspective of a man who is both a) married and b) imaginitive, I just can’t connect the dots between a hot tub, pepto bismol, and fun…. Now…..sour cream, rose petals, pennzoil, milk, jello, ballbearings, feathers…..I should stop while I’m ahead…..

    P.S. I am equally in favor of a good ol’ fashioned family hot tub. In that case, I recommend water.

    Uh, yeah, also married with an imagination and Pepto killed the libido instantly, and made my face crunch up a bit. In a family situation like this, and we all know families need quality time together, you need wet water! Take out the junk, including overdose of chemicals, and use ozone. Ozone makes water wetter (true story, one of the reasons they use ozone in the Olympics like in ice skating), and greatly reduces friction.

    I can’t get Pepto out of my mind. Thanks.
