I tell everyone with hair color that's purple pink blue etc that it's awesome and then I ask for a high five...
I was going to make some sort of joke about how you'd have a calloused hand if you worked at a junior high, but it just sounds like I'm calling you a ephebophile.I tell everyone with hair color that's purple pink blue etc that it's awesome and then I ask for a high five...
Eh?...

Really? I sorta skipped to the last few pages because I figured the direction of conversation would have changed since the beginning!uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that's literally what I posted in the OP
I thought it might have been but, at the same time, I did not want to accuse you of being dirty minded."That's what she said."
I thought it was obvious.

Worry not. I feel confident in saying I'm one of the dirtiest-minded people on this board. I try to allow my mind the freedom to roam wherever it might want to go. The benefits are amazing.I did not want to accuse you of being dirty minded.
If it weren't for the visible thong, I would have thought that was a theft prevention poster.* Keeping your iPod and wallet poking out of your purse like that is a pretty foolish thing to do if you're walking through a crowd.Manchester police set up this:
Good going, UK. You're ahead of us on gay marriage, but on this stuff, you're right down in the pits with us.
It's a poster from seven years ago.Greater Manchester Police responded to this controversy with a statement to The Mancunion. “This poster was produced in 2007 by GMP as part of a campaign to tackle robberies being committed against students.
“It has nothing to do with a publicity campaign on rape. The strapline ‘Keep your assets out of sight’ was simply a reminder to students not to flaunt valuables such as mobile phones, iPods and cameras.
“The poster is no longer printed or distributed, and it is seven years since they were last sent out. The artwork was approved by the head of PR at the time, and this particular style was chosen as it was thought it would appeal to students and get their attention. It is worth noting that we received no negative feedback at the time these were produced.”
The thong is what made me jump. Thanks for fact checking.If it weren't for the visible thong, I would have thought that was a theft prevention poster.* Keeping your iPod and wallet poking out of your purse like that is a pretty foolish thing to do if you're walking through a crowd.
*According to Greater Manchester Police, it is a theft prevention poster:

That's funny, because I would give those away since they came free with so many things (including real headphones). My little cousins used to attach them to $25 iPod Shuffles.With all that equipment visible, I thought it was a theft prevention poster, too.
People always talk about how having those distinctive white earbuds advertises to the world I HAVE AN EXPENSIVE DEVICE PLEASE ROB ME.

That's funny. I think every one of my wives has told me that taking out the trash is a "man's job"
How did that Cyanide and Happiness comic go?That's funny. I think everyone one of my wives has told me that taking out the trash is a "man's job"
In the mind of the people having the uproar over the shirt, you are part of the problem.I didn't notice the shirt until it was pointed out and I watched the interview.
OMG Check your privilege, shitlord!I don't see that... The problem would be to not see the sexism in an image, not not noticing the image itself
This is the falsest of false equivalencies.A man wears a shirt someone close to him made as a gift to a PR thing, and the shirt depicts scantily clad women (with guns). <-- SEXISM
Celebrities are wearing less and less in front cover non-adult magazines to "throw off the shackles society places on our bodies". <-- ANTI-SEXISM
So, as we can see, this is a case where a marginalized group can engage in something that empowers them, but if that is engaged by those outside the group it demeans them.

You may have said that in jest, but gaze upon this and try to remember that this is not a porn magazine.Celebrities are wearing less and less in front cover non-adult magazines to "throw off the shackles society places on our bodies". <-- ANTI-SEXISM
