Sex shops on every corner

Oisterwijk - A Dutch entrepreneur has developed a sex-shop vending machine.
It sells sex toys, erotic lingerie, massage oil and condoms, reports Het Laatste Nieuws.
Frans Berkers of Oisterwijk thinks he's on to a winner and wants to see one on every corner.
"My invention is a customer-friendly alternative to a sex shop and it's open 24/7," he said.
Berkers says people would find using his vending machine less embarrassing than a sex shop.
But children would not be able to use it because it accepts only credit cards and not money.
"And I'm working on a concept which makes it impossible for a wife to see where her husband has spent his money. The account will only show a neutral address," he said.
However, he still hasn't persuaded local council officials to give him permission to put the first machine into operation.
The city administration of nearby Tilburg have agreed to his proposal in principle, but have been unable to agree on a location. - Ananova.com
