I saw a young boy in a polo shirt with the collar turned up. On the collar it said "WEENIE" which made me giggle for awhile.

more gender confusion in China.  bibibibibi

On the other hand, the monogramme is for a Rugby League club ... so maybe they got it right!

PS That is an in joke for us rugby players.  uuuuuuuuuu

I can't find the pic, but once in Beijing, I saw a kid with the shirt that read:

Shittles: Taste the A$$hole
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
1976

I'm not sure what it was all about, but it made me laugh. My biggest question was who printed this t-shirt in kid's sizes? I've got the picture somewhere, if I find it, I'll be sure to post it.

Wish you good luck in the search Tai_Li  bfbfbfbfbf

I would not like to guess as to who printed the original of that one for kids:
-  if it was someone back home the PC forces would have them hounded out of the country
-  if someone in China did a machine translation of an innocuous statement then the programme is going to come up with some pretty amazing stuff ... a la Spike Milligan
- if it is a China original then there is a Foreign teacher out there, with a wicked sense of humour, teaching a very special English programme

Yes!! haha   I going to tell on you.  agagagagag

PS One of our Interns - a university graduate with a major in English - arrived at work in this Tshirt.

I could give her your suggestions ... but it would be like walking through a minefield to the Black Hole at the end of a very long tunnel.

I am sticking to my 'Nice Tshirt' comment.

Somehow, the image of a traditional English village pub with a big wooden sign showing two Dr. Suess-esque roosters wearing socks wasn't the first thing that crossed my mind.

It is about time that "fetishism" made a comeback so it is good to see that someone is out there actively promoting the concept.

I think fetishism started to become 'normalised' at the beginning of the 21st Century when Eton opened it's gates to the general public. Soon after that policemen began wearing nylon stockings on night duty to keep out the cold, Labour politicians were photographed in frilly nickers and hospitals reported a dramatic increase in the number of foreign objects they had to remove from various orifices.

It is one "ism" worthy of study.   

Quote
    * In the 19th century Karl Marx appropriated the term to describe commodity fetishism as an important component of capitalism. Nowadays, (commodity and capital) fetishism is a central concept of Marxism.
    * Later Sigmund Freud appropriated the concept to describe a form of paraphilia where the object of affection is an inanimate object or a specific part of a person; see sexual fetish.

As I cannot find the SURVEY button on the site (where is it?) we will just have to use the old fashioned method:

SURVEY: Which of these objects turns you on the most?:

A.   $

B.  :lickass:

C.  :alcoholic:

D.  vvvvvvvvvv

E. OO or oo

F.  £

G.  bdbdbdbdbd

H.  ayayayayay

I.  cbcbcbcbcb

J.  blblblblbl

K.  all of them
