Have I become a miserable old git or is this just sick?

I find it hard to believe that many true feminists would advocate such wear.

Shock at the battered women one.

It's a horrible sexist t-shirt.

I'm disappointed in zazzle who I quite like.

There should be just 1 universal slab t-shirt printed and that should read

"I am a twat steer clear".

TheBigJessie · 12/03/2013 21:16

I'm a feminist. I think it's revolting.

Softlysoftly · 12/03/2013 21:17

*slogan not slab

"Wear it to work or play, or dress it up with a blazer or sweater and wear it out to dinner. Super soft, lightweight, and perfect for screen printing.

snurk!!!! yes this would go down well at work

Who said it's ok?

The 'you're so hot you're making me sexist' is a Flight of the Conchords. In context it's actually taking the piss out of singers like Shaggy. Not sure that can be classed as mysogonistic as it's not gender specific.

The grammar (or lack thereof) is the most offensive thing about that t-shirt.

NewAtThisMalarky · 13/03/2013 08:14

It's a crap slogan, not funny - but I like crap slogan t-shirts on people. They are a really great way to spot people that I don't want to waste my time talking to.

Btw op, the model is not a child. I'm not sure why you think she is.

Toby That's what jumped out at me first Grin

But yes, it's crap. Sick of all these "funny" t-shirts advocating violence

Mugofteaforme · 13/03/2013 11:48

Honestly MrsDevere, It's offensive on so many levels..

Offensive to Feminists. I doubt one true feminist would find it humourous or fun'
Offensive to Men. No one likes to be debased as a human being do they?

....and yes the other t-shirts were just as vile imho.

Oh dear. I think the problems in your perception, not mine.

"Why the insistence that somehow we all love the tee shirt and that proves something about feminists?"

I never said anything about anybody loving the tee shirt. I also never said, or even inferred, anything derogatory about Feminists. Read my last post again. It clearly (at least to me) says that i'd find it had to believe that a true feminist would in any way stoop to such low depths to get a joke at a mans expense. the majority of feminists that I've spoken to just want an equal
p laying field thus they would find that advert in bad taste.I'm glad to say that the feminists that have posted have been of a similar opinion.

So why are men not campaigning to get it removed?

How would you know that they're not? Very presumptious.

Perhaps the dramas only of your own creation.

My apologies i didn't realise that the child and adult pictures had the same UR L. (link) When you post a link you expect it not to default back to the mother page (if that makes any sense).

HairyHandedTrucker · 13/03/2013 17:34

it's not clever or funny. but you really can't compare it to a rape T-shirt as 1/4 men aren't expecting to be used for scientific experamentation in their life times are they? think this a bull shit goady thread though

AllYoursBabooshka · 13/03/2013 18:35

Well said Hairy.
