Buy the Modern Day Chastity Belt - GPS Lingerie

Feminists around the world have reacted with horror to a new line of lingerie that comes equipped with a GPS tracking system.

The 'find me if you can' range of underwear has been described as a modern-day, high-tech chastity belt.

'It is outrageous to think that men can buy this, programme it and give it to their partners and then monitor them,' said Claudia Burghart, leader of a Berlin feminist group.

'It is nothing more than a chastity belt for insecure men.'

Would U buy something like that??

    Do you have a link? I take it it would be obvious that the tracker was in the underwear, therefore being presented with a pair of these would be a good sign that it's time to dump the bloke.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    It's not the 1st of April is it?

    Please post a link, they sound very funny!

    On a serious note the principle might have been fairly useful for my friends elderly gran who had dementia. She kept wandering away from her residential home and getting lost. The family actually bought her a GPS tracker, but she wouldn't keep it on her. A GPS device hidden in clothing would have been a solution...

    ;)It doesn't guarantee that knickers and owners will end up in the same place though does it?

    Chastity belt? With GPS?

    It only needs to be linked up to a web page and it could be completely the opposite thing IYSWIM
