madAsHell said...: Further down on Ms. Robinson's twitter feed....

Hey, how much are the chocolate covered frozen penises?
You mean bananas?

Oh. Never mind.; 8/26/15, 8:51 AM
mc said...: Tres adorbs.

Perhaps a tattoo reading "ATM is my ATM" would complete the flirty look?

I Have Misplaced My Pants said...: Re that second story:

Kids these days.

Sweetie: there are crude people in the world, often encountered when you hang out at the Bud Lite Stage. Sometimes they telegraph their crudeness through their dress and mannerisms because their friends think it's funny. If you find that unpleasant, perhaps avoid such people. But when you get a little older and have a little more life experience, you'll realize that this is a big planet with all kinds of folks, some who think and behave in ways you like, and some who think and behave in ways that you don't like. When you can accept that, you'll know you're a real grownup.

Now run along!; 8/26/15, 9:13 AM
Bob Ellison said...: I'm gonna have to hear a recording or see at least a phone video to believe that "rape your face" story, Jia.; 8/26/15, 9:20 AM
Dr.D said...: What is interesting about this foolishness? Why did you post this, Althouse? Is there nothing more interesting this morning?

Makes me wish I had not bothered to open Althouse this morning.; 8/26/15, 9:22 AM
dbp said...: The "Rape Your Face" T-shirt has a logo that looks like a total rip-off of The North Face.; 8/26/15, 9:23 AM
Bob Ellison said...: I went to a saloon recently where a woman was wearing only a thong. Suddenly a starship came down and ripped off the roof, and it put spotlights on me and that woman in a thong, and it picked up me! Bad choice. It gets kinda loose after that...anyway, I found myself in bed with nothing but an iPad to record my story.; 8/26/15, 9:40 AM
Laslo Spatula said...: That outfit can be worn by a Trashy Girl or a Naughty Girl.

There are differences.

Although both will suck your cock in public, so there are also similarities.

I could make a list.

I am Laslo.; 8/26/15, 9:43 AM
rhhardin said...: The shirt is for wearing to mandatory annual consciousness raising seminars.; 8/26/15, 9:45 AM
rhhardin said...: A shirt with "rape your face" printed on both outside and inside is an even better idea for mandatory annual consciousness raising seminars.; 8/26/15, 9:46 AM
Laslo Spatula said...: No one seems to buy the "I Want to Make Sweet Sweet Love to Your Face" shirt.

Pity.

I am Laslo.; 8/26/15, 9:51 AM
Ann Althouse said...: "The "Rape Your Face" T-shirt has a logo that looks like a total rip-off of The North Face."

That means it's a deliberate parody, which makes it actually better.; 8/26/15, 9:51 AM
Eric the Fruit Bat said...: My guess is that the kinder, gentler rapists do it doggie style because having to look at a whimpering face would mean you'd have to stop being a meanie.

There are evolutionary implications, maybe.; 8/26/15, 10:07 AM
MadisonMan said...: I have the same reaction to the 'Rape Your Face' shirt as I did to the ODU frat with the Drop Off Freshmen Girls here sign (or whatever the sign said): Great advertising as to who (or where) to avoid.; 8/26/15, 10:07 AM
Eric the Fruit Bat said...: IIRC, Japanese soldiers during WWII were given instructions on proper rape technique.

Maybe that's just one of those propaganda things. I really don't know.

"The strange thing is . . . they make such bloody good cameras."; 8/26/15, 10:11 AM
JCC said...: I didn't realize that this style of women's shorts are widely known and advertised at any number of retail outlets as "trashwhore cutoff shorts".

Oh.

Geez, I kinda like them in some circumstances. Trashwhore? I've bought my wife crop tops and oversized tank tops too.

Anyone who would wear that crude T-shirt is a dolt.; 8/26/15, 10:11 AM
YoungHegelian said...: but do u have the 'He was in a bad mood, he didn't mean it' crop top to match?

Isn't the model wearing a "wifebeater"? I'd think that would be close enough.; 8/26/15, 10:27 AM

People who bought these, also looked at the "I deserved it" Sunglasses. Buy all three and get free shipping!; 8/26/15, 10:36 AM
William said...: Perhaps the "Rape Your Face" sentiment was directed at North Face and the whole concept of status branding. It's all just a misunderstanding on the part of both the wearer and the woman. Certain forms of irony are lost on horndogs and feminists. Although to be fair, the Bud Light Stage is generally considered an irony free zone.; 8/26/15, 10:58 AM
Jaq said...: What is interesting about this foolishness? Why did you post this, Althouse?

She explained it in this thread... at 8:36; 8/26/15, 11:25 AM
Etienne said...: In other news, the President of the United States has proclaimed this day "Womens Equality Day".

He says that "...after years of agitating"

I never liked that word "agitate" as it seems so bully. When my wife agitates me on the golf course, I threaten her with my wood.; 8/26/15, 11:29 AM
MayBee said...: I'm seeing a lot of underbutt on girls in shorts these days.; 8/26/15, 12:21 PM
Lewis Wetzel said...: Would a t-shirt that said "Sodomy should be consensual!" be offensive?; 8/26/15, 1:03 PM
Bilwick said...: I'm surprised he isn't wearing a backwards baseball cap.; 8/26/15, 1:07 PM
Kyzer SoSay said...: @MayBee - as a male, this new underbutt phenomenon pleases me greatly. It's almost as nice as the Yoga Pants Revolution. My opinion on the matter will remain this way until the day my wife gives birth to a baby girl. On that day, I become a Baptist preacher and exposed ankles become SINFUL!; 8/26/15, 1:16 PM

Known Unknown said...: I think William is on to something. I think the parody is supposed to be aimed at how stupidly overpriced The North Face gear is. However, the Bud Light Stage guy doesn't seem to understand the sentiment.; 8/26/15, 2:23 PM
Known Unknown said...: Re: Yoga pants

Pulled from a short story I'm working on: He thought Elaine Pomeroy could definitely afford Lululemon yoga pants, but it was doubtful they would ever look as good on Elaine Pomeroy as they did on her — despite yoga pants’ mystical and uncanny ability to mold the shape of the lower female body into an omnisensual presence that rendered genetics, workout routines, and dietary habits moot.; 8/26/15, 2:25 PM
MayBee said...: Kyzernick - I'm glad to hear you will not be putting Underbutt Pampers on your future daughter.

But really? I find most girls wearing underbutt shorts would be better served by a few inches more cloth. My husband pretends to agree.; 8/26/15, 3:05 PM
Beldar said...: "... his sweat stains creeping."

Nailed the ending.; 8/26/15, 3:19 PM
Kyzer SoSay said...: MayBee, I somewhat agree. Some women in revealing clothes would be better served covering up a little bit more. But honestly, all kinds of women are sexy. I've dated big girls, skinny girls, and everything in between. As long as a woman isn't squarely in the "obese" category, a little skin showing (even the jiggly skin) is still a turn-on. My wife has meat on her bones, and she knows that if she dresses a certain way for an evening out, we might not even make it out the door once I lay eyes on her.

I think that's the part of me she loves the most.; 8/26/15, 4:20 PM
