Paul Zayer asked:


People always fascinated me. Most of my time in my life I have spend it dealing with people in different competences of social work. I really like seeing people develop and grow. I like watching people achieve objectives that they thought were impossible to reach. In many ways watching my customers grow and develop is the same as watching my children mature. Each of them is so different from the other, yet they share the same belief systems and values.

Through her teenage years, my daughter and I have had a love **** relationship. I think it was just like most mother and daughter relationships, and like my relationship with my own mother, we have become very close now that my daughter is an adult. She has always been fascinated with weddings. She likes very much to go to weddings at our church, even if she does not know the people, she plead to be able to sit in the back of the church and look at the bride walk down the aisle. She would buy bridal magazines to look at the designer wedding dresses. One year, for her birthday, she wanted to attend to the bridal show so she could watch the models in the various designer wedding dresses.

She was not thinking about or visualizing her own wedding, she just liked to see all of the ornaments and gowns and the cakes that people chose. After a few years I realized that she had quite an eye for details and that her ideas about wedding plans and designer wedding dresses were excellent. I did not know if this talent would lead to anything, but I did like her sense of style. She signed up for general education courses at the local university when she graduated from high school. She stayed at home because the commute was less than thirty minutes from our house to the campus.

One day she came home from the University very excited. She saw a help wanted sign when she looked in the windows at designer wedding dresses. She went in to make an application for the job and was employed. Her job is to help clients try on wedding dresses and bridesmaid’s dresses. She will help with measuring and taking orders. She is so excited about this new job. She went to the fast food establishment where she has been working since she was seventeen and gave her two week notice. Because she will be surrounded by bridal wear every day, she thinks she got a job from heaven. I do not know if it will lead to a full time career, but right now she is extremely happy. That what is important to me.

Catherine Harvey asked:


In this day and age of broken homes, single parents and latch key kids there has been a turn around in the attitude that family is not really needed. Here in the UK, we took this hideous 21st Century me, me, me attitude and embraced it to the point of damaging all our relationships.

What summed it up for me was the day my five year old son came home wanting to know why he didn’t have a step dad and all the other kids did. He thought he was being outdone even though I was happily married to his natural father!

So, in our bid to repair the damage done, UK citizens have embraced marriage counselling. But surely there are other things that can be done before we get to this stage? Well, this is where inventive product design comes in. Let’s analyse the helpful possibilities.

The ‘Twodaloo’ product design, for starters. Two toilets that are joined together ‘love seat’ styley. I believe this is the true definition of over-familiarity. When my marriage was breaking down, being anywhere near my husband whilst he was carrying out natures necessities would have brought on a divorce so much quicker. Do these people not understand that some things have to be done in private?

The fact that the Twodaloo has an inbuilt iPod docking station really doesn’t help! If I wanted to listen to music with my husband to aid marital harmony, I would do it in the comfort of the living room where I wouldn’t have to look at his crimson face while he disposes of last night’s dinner.

Of course, looking at the results of some product design you can see why relations have gone down hill fast in the last hundred years or so. For the man that wanted to show true love and consideration to the woman who nurtured his offspring in 1903, there was the chest bandage. Not the most glamorous present but practical nonetheless.

This boned corset strapped the lactating wife in so tightly it effectively milked her into a pair of dangling rubber bags. And you thought a blender was a crap present!!

The ‘Love Mattress’ is the result of product design that could possibly have good effects, bringing couples closer together in that they can cuddle for longer without getting a dead arm. The head and foot ends of the mattress are constructed of strips of foam so that your arm slots between them whilst cuddling your partner instead of getting crushed.

All well and good for the newly loved up couples but I ask you, when you’ve been married for ten years and your partners personal hygiene is slacking how long do you want to spend cosied up to his armpit?

Talking of newly loved up, do you remember the days when sensual massage was a Saturday night past time? Well, from the realms of product design comes the ‘magic massager’. This is designed to provide an effective Swedish massage, even through clothing, without the use of messy oils. Guys, a tip, ditch the ‘magic massager’, employ a male Swedish masseur and let him get on with it.

Of course, product design is often geared up for men and without disappointment comes the latest offering from Japan. A remote control that is activated by winking. Laziness in the extreme but if it keeps him quiet what the hell!

For the couples who really want to save their marriage, there are two product designs that I recommend. One is the ‘Comfort Sphere’. This consists of a spherical seat that cocoons you from your partner, with personal entertainment that swings round in front of you. He can watch the football and you can watch the soaps - everybody’s happy.

If you want to please your woman even more and score some excellent brownie points, feed into this sphere the latest chocolate products on the market. Raw chocolate products are the new thing in food product design, they require less energy to produce, minimum packaging with recycled paper and are full of goodness including antioxidants, proteins, calcium and vitamins.

So, good for her, good for the environment and conducive to marital harmony.
