Next have recalled a number of babygros because they have what looks like tiny penises all over them.

I must have seen some weird penises (penii?!) in my time, because I've never seen one that looked like the drawing on the baby gros!

Azquilith · 14/07/2014 18:48

Oh for gods sake. You'd have thought given they've twins that they'd have seen a penis before.

SoonToBeSix · 14/07/2014 18:50

I don't think they look look like penis's

bellarations · 14/07/2014 18:55

I cannot make a penis out of that!
How silly.

ballsballsballs · 14/07/2014 18:57

No worries Mary Grin

'I think what makes it all worse is that I have dressed two girls in it, not just that I put it on a baby.'

The Daily Fail really is the gift that keeps on giving isn't it.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 14/07/2014 19:02

I want one. I don't have any babies but I want one.

Betcha they start going for £££ on eBay Grin

My DD had this babygro about six months ago. Shall I dig it out of the loft, squeeze her back into it, and pose with her while doing a sadface?

Definitely Grin
Glad to see I am not alone. I cannot see anything wrong with the design.

Littledidsheknow · 14/07/2014 19:17

YABU - for reading the Daily Fail!
Actually, its pretty hilarious... not so much the penis thing - not really noticeable - but the parents and their complaint. Pretty sad how Next bend over backwards for these idiots.

Didactylos · 14/07/2014 21:16

Hmm you really have to want to see a CDC on that babygrow

This however is brilliant

juniper44 · 14/07/2014 21:17

What I thought was weird was that the mum said the father was feeding 'my baby' when it states they are his kids too... weird turn of phrase!

I think I'd just laugh if I discovered little wee-wees on DD's Babygros. To be fair, I'd have to search under all of the chewed up food to see the patterns anyway.

tobysmum77 · 14/07/2014 21:58

yanbu I thought it was funny also Grin

Ilovemydogandmydoglovesme · 14/07/2014 22:05

Ahahaha.

Laugh? I nearly started.

Mrsgrumble · 14/07/2014 22:09

It doesn't look like a thing to me...

Mrsgrumble · 14/07/2014 22:09

Anything

Bogeyface · 14/07/2014 22:19

Proof, if it were ever needed, of what sleep deprivation can do to a persons brain!

Bogeyface · 14/07/2014 22:20

And I love the penis window! I would buy that house just on that basis that it would annoy the fuck out of my mother every time she walked into the lounge :o

riskit4abiskit · 14/07/2014 22:27

I actually want a hidden penis outfit for my ds. It could be like one of those magic eye pictures

curiousgeorgie · 14/07/2014 22:29

Okay... I don't care, and my DD had this babygrow, but I can definitely see a penis! Are you all blind? Wink

iklboo · 15/07/2014 22:13

You can see a penis now you've been TOLD it might sorta kinda resemble one if you squint a bit, fold the fabric & stand in a dark room with the light behind you.

If you hadn't had been told by some weirdo that it resembles a penis drawn by an artistically challenged teen maybe not Grin.

Still not seeing it, how dark does the room need to be? Grin

flyingtrue · 16/07/2014 11:13

Oh come on, that's a collar! I can see why he'd think penis if he had a penis fixation and stared for a while, but seriously who would notice that without it being pointed to them. I wonder if whoever saw it first has penis envy issues.

believeintheshield · 16/07/2014 13:36

I saw this on fb yesterday. I spent an awful long time squinting at the sleeves thinking, "But they look nothing like penises." It was only later that I caught site of the page again and noticed the neck!

Think the link say it all.

I think these men need to get a life.

KEGirlOnFire · 16/07/2014 13:50

You've got to wonder how it got so high up the complaints chain for someone to make the decision to remove them from the shelves.

If it's that serious, why didn't the QC team pick the design up before they made them - hopefully they're laughing their heads off about this and are NOT on their way to the Job centre!!
