WET SPOT BLANKETS
I know that usually when something comes out of a man, there is a climax and that is the end of the sexy time. It is not that way for me, and dare I speak for other women as well. There is a release of liquid, sometimes a great deal of liquid (yes, it can be up to nearly a liter for some), and I can tell you that for me, I am NEVER finished at that point. I'm not going to just jump up in the next moment and throw the soaked blanket off the bed, then lay back down in the clean sheets for several reasons:
So, yes, I do need something I can lay on for a time which doesn't feel like I am laying in a sopping wet, cold puddle. It must absorb and distribute the liquid and have a top layer that wicks the liquid away from the skin as much as possible. Of course it will still be damp, but it won't be sopping.
For some reason this idea that I would lay in the puddle for a time just doesn't track for some. They are probably relating it to incontinence. If I had an incontinence accident, I would want to jump up and clean up immediately afterwards. However, this blanket can be used by folks with that challenge and what if they are asleep? Would it really be good for them to lay in a juicy puddle until they wake up? Spreading the liquid to all of their clothes, making it more likely to get their hands in it while sleeping and maybe rub their eyes or touch their face? No, they need the absorbency too.
I have explained it multiple times, but this is still bothering me. Maybe getting it down in print will help understanding in what dealing with a wet spot is like.
We have had some trouble with the manufacturers we are working with understanding this as well. They keep wanting to send us waterproof surface blankets. That is completely useless for this application, as the liquid just rolls off when you pick up the blanket and now you've got a nice puddle on your floor or bed to deal with anyway. This is what happened with the Liberator - when you pick it up, everything just drips off of it. Not useful at all.
I am determined to find/create/develop an appropriate blanket that will absorb as well as my best incontinence pad, and also function as a comfy blanket. Yes, I have used the pads for this in the past, and while functional, they leave a lot to be desired in the fashionable and fun category.
This is going to happen. I will make it for myself and for all of you other juicy people out there.
Still having trouble believing me? Check out the reviews for this incontinence pad on Amazon:
Perhaps I shouldn't send you a link to our best competition - the product I have liked the best so far to fill this need I have. However, I know that the product we are designing will function like this, but will look and feel like a normal blanket. Our product will be better and there is really nothing like it available at the moment. So stay tuned, because pretty soon your Water Nymph wet spot blanket will be a staple in your house and you will wonder how you ever got along without it.
I'm not really sure who I am writing this to, since it kind of turned into an advertisement. I'll just put it out in the void and see what happens.
