    Umm...I was told yesterday that a nurse and a midwife were starting a Facebook group for pregnancy and women's health issues. They've named it Vag-Probe, which, unfortunately sounds like a porn site for robots. Good intention...but what they heck were they thinking??

    Sounds to me like they used the name to draw attention. A marketing strategy for sure....or maybe a suggestive link to what the group really is?

    hi recovertoday, i checked it out, and it's a garden setting, not edgy, not comical...I think they just worked too long of a shift one day, and named it after work supplies.

    *Ouch* That really is an awful name/title! Did you write the group and ask "what were you thinking?" ahostagesituation?

    Welcome to HP, btw - been over at your hubs and do enjoy your writing style. Will get back to your pages later today to bookmark, etc.
