"Little Doozee," douche nozzle that fits a bottle of carbonated drink - a spermicide for birth control? U.S.A., [date?] Women have squirted many kinds of fluids up their vaginas for usually two reasons: "cleaning" and to kill sperm. Well, maybe also for masturbation or other sex play. It's amazing to me that someone actually manufactured a nozzle to attach to the open end of a carbonated drink bottle so that the fluid could be used to kill and flush out sperm. "That's a doozee [or doozy]!" used to mean "That's a lie!" and some other things. It implied "big," which might be why this is a "Little Doozee." Maybe too Doozee plays on the word douche. The festive cover prepares you for the text inside, meaning Have fun! See old contraceptive sponges and douches designed ostensibly for cleaning the vagina but also used for contraception. I thank the prolific contributor of items and information to this museum! Below, the top of the box holding the nozzle: With the lid on, the cardboard box measures 4 x 8 1/4 x 1 5/8" (10.6 x 20.9 x 4 cm).
