Man Servants, Laughed the Whole Time I Watched This, but So Serious About All of It.

7/30/2014

 


​A friend tonight forwarded me a link to a the video for a new start up, ManServants.  Aside from being a hilarious campaign, with queen Beyonce's beat in the background music, I am upset that I wasn't the one who came up with the idea!  

ManServants boasts that they offer what the ladies are really seeking, a handsome, well groomed, polite man to do your bidding.  
 
In the beginning there were strippers. Man's idea of a pleasurable pastime.  Then came the women's rights movement.  Equality allowed women to have her stripper and her penis cake.
But ladies, whose idea of sexy is this?  Is this how you invasion your throne? Or are strippers nothing but a hand me down fantasy?

So what do women really want? 


Dalal Khajah and Josephine Wai Lin (who are not only my new dream girls) are cofounders of ManServants.  

The idea stemmed from a friend who wanted a stripper free bachelorette party, which got the two questioning the tradition of a male stripper.

Mashable's TL Stanley writes, "the service isn’t intended to compete with existing Rent-a-Hubby and other handyman-for-hire companies, she said, but rather fill a void where no entrepreneurs have yet gone. ManServants is open to men, as well, but the founders think they’ll draw mostly women as clients who want to treat themselves or their friends to some testosterone-fueled pampering."
​

When interviewed by Mashable's TL Stanely, cofounder Khajah stated, “it’s kind of our dream to annihilate the male stripper industry, but really we just want to flip the script and provide another option.”

ManServant's menu boasts to suit your taste:

The San Francisco based startup is set to launch this fall, but will only be servicing the San Francisco area!
