Card retailer pulls novelty condom after Twitter users accuse them of body-shaming
Cards Galore have promised not to restock the 'offensive' product

A greetings card retailer has pulled a novelty condom after being criticised for sexism and body-shaming.
The condom, on sale in high street card shop Cards Galore, featured an image resembling a toilet door sign on its packaging. The sign showed one female figure with the word ‘enter’ underneath it, and another fuller figure with the caption ‘do not enter’.
Charlotte Marshall tweeted a photo of the condom to Cards Galore on Friday, who replied last night promising not to restock the product, and apologising for any offence caused.
Hundreds of Twitter users re-tweeted the picture and demanded that the card company stop selling the product.
One Twitter user also tweeted a picture of a card from the same shop which read ‘Even sluts deserve a nice birthday’ but Cards Galore said that this card had already been dropped from stores.
