The medical conference, like any other similar initiative, was organized by whoever is in the market: a pharmaceutical company or a company that produces paramedical instruments and "medical" objects.
Palermo, sex toys in esposizione al Palazzo dei Normanni. La furia del presidente Ars: “Denuncio alla magistratura”
L’Huffington Post – Pubblicato: 25/10/2014
Sarà. Ma l’operazione commerciale non è piaciuta affatto al presidente dell’Assemblea siciliana, Giovanni Ardizzone (Udc) che ora minaccia di rivolgersi alla magistratura: “Abbiamo autorizzato – dice – soltanto un convegno medico d’alto profilo scientifico, mentre si è abusato della nostra disponibilità, creando un grave danno all’immagine del Parlamento siciliano. Nessuno ha mai autorizzato l’esposizione di prodotti commerciali”. Intollerabile, per il deputato questore Paolo Ruggirello, il fatto che i sex toys fossero “alla vista di tutti, anche dei turisti che visitano il palazzo”.
An exhibition of a scientific nature in the context of a congress on "therapeutic innovations in endocrine-gynecological and obstetric clinical practice", but which must have made the eyes of visitors and tenants of the Palazzo roll out, certainly not accustomed to dealing with silicone objects and sex toys in the corridors of the austere building. So, to avoid unnecessary embarrassment and a few mischievous laughs, the quaestors have decided to change the location for the unique exhibition. From the corridors of the Palace to the Sala Rossa. Away from prying eyes.
Sex shop in Parliament, the culprit is being sought: well-studied hoax or…
Cutting out a corner of the Norman palace and make it a corner for an impromptu sex shop, of short but intense duration, requires great skill or great stupidity. Either way, it's no small mistake. And the indignation aroused in the representatives of the institution is not enough to close the story and leave the episode at the mercy of hard gossip. Well, it's worth understanding. And to stay inside the news, beyond the inevitable prudence that the "parliamentary" sex shop solicits.
Vibrators, vaginal creams and silicone spheres and much more, useful objects to stimulate the private parts of women on display in the austere rooms of Palazzo dei Normanni are an absolute novelty. The plot that has placed them on a generous shelf refers to a medical conference duly authorized by the president of the Sicilian regional assembly, Giovanni Ardizzone, a very strict and God-fearing man. Had he had the slightest suspicion of the plot, he would have kicked anyone who opened his mouth. When he learned, through a tip to the press, what had happened a few meters from King Roger's room and the Pisan Tower, which houses the President's office, the reaction was as prompt and austere as the Palace: "image damage". And since Ardizzone is a lawyer by profession, announced the possibility of legal action against those who used the Palazzo dei Normanni for the sex shop.
It shouldn't be complicated to trace the perpetrators of the damage, since the medical conference was organized by a company that has its own brand on the market and sells objects that “they take care of the most intimate needs of women”.
So let's rewind the tape. The medical conference, like any other similar initiative, was organized by whoever is in the market: a pharmaceutical company or a company which produces paramedical instruments and “medical” objects.
The extraordinary nature of the event rather concerns the quality of the initiative, described as "a medical-scientific conference on therapeutic innovations in endocrine-gynecological and obstetric clinical practice". Behind this complicated scientific terminology the sex shop would be hidden.
Obviously, that of the president of the regional assembly was not the only reaction. The indignation spread rapidly, arousing smiles and malevolent thoughts, the most frequent (and blasphemous) of which makes the victim of the scam, the regional Parliament, the object of vulgar insinuations. In fact, there are those who argue that the damage to the image could not be invoked for the simple reason that at Palazzo dei Normanni there is never a lack of reasons to be indignant. And therefore crossing the courtroom to punish the ineffable organizers of the sex shop runs the risk of a flop if you run into a magistrate who likes to judge the context rather than the fact.
