Is getting other people to send marines sex care packages a good idea?

Contributor: Dizzykakes Dizzykakes
I've been sending my marine husband a lot of toys and porn lately. For about a year he is going to be overseas trying to help with the Libya situation. He has been giving a lot of them away, but he still keeps some. Apparently the guys on the boat are really jealous of him. It seems like the only things marines really want is to get laid. Is it a good idea to get others to help me?

I feel like giving them ways to release their sexual tension can only help

That's a very cute idea. it seems like a porn/toy gift bag now and then would help all around. I think it would help them just feel better in general.

Good idea.. but I doubt that the gov would let that happen. They had issues with them getting cigs!

I don't know. I would certainly check with the men before randomly sending them. Some of them may have SO'S, girlfriends and wives that may feel offended or a little uneasy about the idea. I would not be happy if some random woman sent my partner sexual items. I think for some couples it's personal. I would check with them before doing so.

Well here is the thing.. I've been sending my husband all these sex toys.. and he feels like he has to give them away because they are practically begging him for them. It not really me giving it to them, it my husband. I think that if a woman wanted to give my husband a sex toy.. i would say hell yea! because at least he isn't having sex with a woman on the boat.

I've sent my husband multiply packages already and everyone is very cool with it. They just wish I sent more so everyone could have one.

I think its a good idea, and ty for everyone that has loved ones in the military. I
have a son in deployment so I wont be sending them to him but maybe his wife would I don't know.

I think it's definitely a neat idea, and I love that your husband feels comfortable giving them away. I'm not sure I would feel comfortable sending them myself (especially to strangers), but I don't think it's a bad idea overall.

If they want them, then I see no problem with it.

Good GF's hubby is helicopter pilot overseas. They were warned to "NEVER" send anything remotely sexy or romantic. The middle east countries where they serve would have whig outs if they found such things in their mail. If your husband is on a ship..that is different, I guess. US Mail and Military mail handles all those letters and boxes.

I voted No, but not because it seems wierd. I voted No because you need to be careful of the ports that they may be in, especially in the Middle East. Some of the countries that they may arrive in take very dim views of such items, and this could get your husband and others in trouble if it get out. Just as alcohol can be a no-no is most of the Muslim countries, so to are the "sex toys" seen as no-nos in many of these countries.
Check with your husband about what he has been told about what he can or should receive in these countries.
You should know that in soume cases, the military members may be discharged and released to the local authorities for trial in certain countries.

well, if it's your spouse or partner, I don't really see how it's weird. But sending porn, sex toys, etc to unknown individuals isn't really appropriate because everyone has their own special tastes and what may work for some may not work for others.

also, oldhippy is right. you have to be sensitive to local laws and nuances because there are many places in the world that aren't as accepting towards sex aids. be sure your actions don't cause trouble for our troops, please.

Awesome idea. My s/o is a Marine and the only thing he cares about is getting laid. He brought a few items with him the times he went. I agree about following local customs and laws too.

I do understand to a point. But, our men are there defending their people. Why do they get a say in what OUR men get off on?

During WWII the MOST requested items (as every man had cigarettes included in his C Rations) were explicit letters from women (they had services where women would write them to lonely soldiers, not using their real names of course) and Pin Ups of girls scantily clad. In Korea and Viet Nam, the number one requested item were Playboy and Penthouse and other nude magazines. Here's a really cool video with the many many nude and semi nude Pin Up Girls our Men in Uniform enjoyed in the Service during WWII. link

Soldiers serving during WWII so loved their Pin Up Girls they would put them on their airplanes. NOBODY thought it was "inappropriate." These are men, men who are serving our country. They should be allowed some comforts of home and be allowed to enjoy the things healthy, red blooded American Men love.

Men get very lonely when they are serving our country. I'd rather have My Man jerking off to a Pin Up of Miss June than banging one of the nurses in the M.A.S.H unit, if he were deployed.

I don't get why these countries get to DEMAND what OUR fighting men can and can't receive from other Americans it makes me angry. The people from those countries are free to continue their cultural lawful activities HERE, so why can't our men get the things that make them happy?

As for sending things to men one doesn't know, I wouldn't be personally comfortable with that. Perhaps your husband can take requests and you can fulfill the orders, if you can afford it.

A Classic WWII Plane with Nose Art of a Pin Up Girl. The swastikas on this plane were the number of Nazi planes the pilot had shot down and the "bombs" were the number of bomb soirees he ran.

Classic WWII Airplane Nose Art

These images boosted our fighting Mens' morale and helped them through a war MUCH shorter than many men have been in Iraq or Afghanistan.

The much more "conservative" people in the 1940s didn't find this "offensive." Why do some of us?

I think it is a good idea. But maybe they could start a wish list for the guys that want them but with like a price limit. (for those of us on a budget.)
