  1. This is really strange indeed. The first one especially.
    Nice combination of two photos. As so often :-)

    1. Both these t-shirts struck me as odd, and they were selling the latest fashions to teenagers. How twisted does a teen have to be to want to be punished? Seeking attention? Masochist? Low self-esteem? Whatever it is, it is not good, but is it good business?

  2. There's no accounting for the tastes of teenagers or the slimy adults who cater to them and actually create desire and tastes.

    1. Might be an interesting conversation with him to see what he thinks about these.

  5. I thought it was primarily our girls who were given such bad role models and awful fashions but clearly our boys are victims, too. I agree with Lowell. As a society, we could do better for our children.

    1. American society, and perhaps others, does not like children very well. Individually perhaps they are fine, but institutionally and structurally children live a hard and demanding life. This is bound to come out in strange behavior and attitudes.

  6. Some how I don't think teenage girls are wearing those shorts for us. They might be thinking of cute teenage boys, but I'm just guessing. I never know what girls or women are thinking.
