This Dildo Can Be Filled With The Ashes Of Your Loved One

For most of us, it seems that discussing sexuality and death in the same breath is taboo, but this is something that Dutch designer Mark Sturkenboom seems determined to challenge. His controversial 21 Grams project features a glass dildo that can hold exactly 21 grams of a cremated loved one’s ashes. In 1901, an American doctor named Duncan MacDougall determined that the soul weighed 21 grams by weighing elderly people immediately before and after they died from tuberculosis.
The dildo is accompanied by other fixtures designed to help the user “revive an intimate night with her love again,” like a ring holder and a fragrance diffuser. The box that holds it all locks with a key that can be worn as a pendant, and the box can play music from an iPhone to help set the mood.

Ridiculous. It would be better to make a mould of the man's penis while he is alive and make a dildo from that. Porn stars do it all the tim
Hmmm... Does this go under necrophilia? Seems pretty grayzone to me...
I was thinking the same thing and btw, eww.
Necrophilia: sexual intercourse with/attraction toward corpses. Ashes, although from corpses, are not corpses. So no, but it is different
Necrophilia = being sexually turned on by dead bodies. Yes, this indeed is necrophilia. No grey zone.
Have we reached the end of the internet??
