Not only does Cindy Barshop (that fired NYC Housewife) promote women spending thousands of dollars to look like hairless cats, she is now producing fox fur merkins. Clearly only to be bought as a gag gift (who would actually wear these “luxury vagina coverings”?) – awful is the only description we find apt for how the fox that was vaginally electrocuted for this hideous and cruel item.
Ready to gag?
“The Foxy Bikini, in which the bikini line is waxed bare and replaced with a pubic wig made from real fox fur” costs $225.
Classicist, overpriced, and ugly – this merkin is something nobody could possibly find sexy. When you read this NY Magazine article about why she chose to do this, you’ll like her even less. Especially when she jokes; “it’s like I cured cancer” and in response to the backlash she knew she’d receive “”I am not an extremist. I don’t believe in cruelty to animals and I don’t eat red meat, but that doesn’t mean I hate those that do.” If Barshop doesn’t believe in cruelty towards animals, she has a funny way of showing it. She clearly needs to review these facts.
Let us not forget the being that went through unspeakable pain to bring you this absurd product.
Take action, Glamazons.

Note this note from Cindy;
“Greetings, I respect and value your opinion and was moved by your determination in what you believe in. I have every intention to fix this by re-introducing the Foxy Bikini with Faux Fur. Lots of love and positive energy to you and your cause. peace.love. completely bare. completely bare spas Cindy Barshop”
Though it’s hardly an admission of the cruelty of fur, and is a very you vs us (“what you believe in,” i.e what I don’t believe in) – it’s certainly a start. Bravo to Cindy for leaning towards compassion.
