"Little Doozee," douche nozzle
that fits a bottle of carbonated drink - a spermicide for birth control,
family planning? U.S.A., [date?]
Women have squirted many kinds of fluids up their vaginas for usually
two reasons: "cleaning" and to kill sperm. Well, maybe also for
masturbation or other sex play.
It's amazing to me that someone actually manufactured a nozzle to attach
to the open end of a carbonated drink bottle so that the fluid could be
used to kill and flush out sperm.
"That's a doozee [or doozy]!" used to mean "That's a
lie!" and some other things. It implied "big," which might
be why this is a "Little Doozee." Maybe too Doozee plays on the
word douche.
The festive cover prepares you for the text inside, meaning Have fun!
See old contraceptive sponges and douches designed ostensibly for cleaning the vagina but
also used for contraception.
