Several conservative Christian mothers in the Dallas area have joined forces and set their sights on banning electric toothbrushes, claiming they can be used for sexual purposes as well as for cleaning teeth.

The leader of the group of boycotters says that she was embarrassed and shocked after entering her daughter's bedroom last month, and said she intends to nip the problem in the bud before things get any worse.

"I caught her using the new toothbrush to pleasure herself down below in her private parts," said 45-year-old Wanda Riftright, a Christian woman who bought her 15-year-old daughter Tiffany a new Crest SpinBrush (pictured at left) for her birthday.

"When she kept needing new batteries every two or three days, I got suspicious and decided to investigate. I thought the product might be defective and was eating up batteries faster than normal," she said.

"Her teeth look nice and white, but she's smiling just as wide as the woman on the Crest website and TV commercials and I now know why!"

The Crest SpinBrush is constructed in the general shape of a rigid male penis, Riftright says, and when she entered her daughter's bedroom one night, she caught her rubbing the SpinBrush against her private parts and smiling really wide and seemed to be in a state of ecstasy.

Several other Dallas Christian women have also caught their daughters using the new toothbrush in the same manner, and decided to take action by boycotting and calling the spinning toothbrush a "Tool of Satan."
