The media thinks she invented the merkin now?
Thank you for making me read the article about pubic wigs. .
But now I can ask you: why do you think that? Nowhere in the article does it say or imply that she invented it. They said it’s a publicity stunt.
Probably because they invent a new term that they use in the headline, “pubic wigs”, even though KK is quoted in the article directly referring to it as a merkin.
This isn’t an article so much as its an ad, and merkin isn’t a sexy term.
Maybe because they thought their readers wouldn’t know what a merkin is but can probably imagine what a pubic wig is?
And it is not an invented term when it is literally the description of what something is.
~50 % of USAmericans read at middle school level and you think CNN doesn’t use the word merkin because they want to hype a Kardashian?
Why the hell would they need to imagine what it is when the article has pictures?
“Pubic wig” is definitely not a new term.
[off topic]
Back in the day, a writer named Alfred Bester created a radio character who only spoke gibberish. One day he went to the producer and aske why they’d had the character say ‘woo-woo-woo’ when he’d written ‘blagga-blagga?’
The producers told him that they knew he was a sleazy New York Jew boy and he’d try to sneak in some dirty words into their scripts.
In the next script he introduced a character named Mr. Merkin.
Id love to see a parody ad for these using that infamous scene from Silence of the Lambs with Buffalo Bill dancing in front of the mirror. Just deep fake Kim’s head onto Ted Levine’s body.
So she reinvented the Merkin?
Stephen Miller’s wife uses the spray on version.
“Yo Dawg we heard ya like pubes, so we put pubes on top of your pubes.”
Why? …reads article… oh, the pubes are on the outside 💡
I wonder if that’s legal to wear publicly; esp. in Japan.
They’ll sell a pixelated version there.
Is there a matching skin-tone top with printed nipples?
Sounds like it actually:
Kardashian’s shapewear brand is known for grabbing headlines with its quirky range, including underwear encrusted with Swarovski crystals, a molded nipple bra, a pierced nipple bra and facial shapewear.
