A shaving brush, bars of soap, bandages, cotton wads, a butt plug, and unlabeled jars of liquids are collected on the shelves of a medicine cabinet. A hinge-mounted mirror divides the cabinet in two equal halves. When flipped to the right, the word “PAIN” is illuminated by electroluminescent material embedded in the mirror. Tweezers, a straight razor, and a sponge hang from the bottom shelf. When flipped to the left, the word “PLEASURE” becomes visible. It is accompanied by dangling latex gloves, a speculum, and fluid-filled condoms.
