Comments on: Kmart says pants ‘not associated’ with abstinence, even though description cites ‘bold abstinence print.’

What? Why not Chastity Belts? Then Daddy can lock the goods up.

How about a pair for Junior? Don’t tell me the boys don’t have a comparable product available?

If you’re shopping at Kmart, chances are you didn’t wait for true love or abstinence.

Kind of like “Warning Explicit Content” T-shirts. It will probably come to symbolize, if not the opposite of its literal message, then at least the silliness of the sanctimony behind the message.

And if young girls want to proclaim their chastity, more power to ‘em.

Teen girls definitely need to be told they are sanctimonious if they aren’t sexually active. Lots of lovely lib comments directed at little girls. Even coming up with this little gem:

Those are nice “warmups” for cozying up on Daddy’s lap at the “purity ball”. Daddy’s little girl!

And calling someone else sick? The ever rising level of discourse. ;)

I can see it now! All across America, Daddy’s little girl trying to explain the crusty stain on her abstinence pants.

Daddy’s little girl dressed in abstinence pants kneeling before the porcelain god, puking her guts out with morning sickness.

Abstinence my arse!

IF a chick is doing all the other stuff, like whale tales, tramp stamps, etc. The womb broom is shaved by that time. At least in my region.

We’re in total agreement, nanlichi. I wish there a couple more TPers like Keltoi. It would make the conversations a little more lively. Trolls get so boring after a while. How many black eyes can you give them?

ralph,

I don’t know that I want a progressive Keltoi, I like to hear the arguments from the other side. We definitely don’t have a nut hold on the truth and he exposes the cracks in our thinking sometimes.

(The nut and the cracks references are to keep this post on topic, not just gratuitously trashy references.)

I’m thinking about sending some of those abstinence pants to a couple of my ex-wives as gifts :)~

It isn’t the asscrack, it’s the “muffin top” lapping over the rolled down waistband that’s the really makes the look.

Or a whale tail. That’s very attractive.

The whale tail, muffin top, tramp stamp trifecta. It makes a dad proud. Add the exposed bra straps and she’s da bomb

Eh. There’s nothing wrong with abstinence. I don’t see what the big deal is with the pants. If people want to abstain, so long as I get to have sex, whatever.

I’m inclined to agree with you, nanlichi, that it’s not really a conversion. I still expect Keltoi to put up some good arguments.

My observation was that he’s gotten off a few cracking jokes the last few days, and that the threads he has chosen to add his voice have been about issues where he’s aligned with progressives.

Maybe he’s right. Maybe it is the result of him embracing his inner troll.

I am calling bullshit on Keltoi’s conversion. Maybe a slight migration leftward, and a welcome one. Keltoi has always been a notch above, and has never exhibited sycophant qualities. You sir, are no Arianna Huffington.

Keltoi brings a position that is somewhat right of most, but does it in a persuasive and not polarizing way. There’s a lot more room in the middle than KKKarl would have you believe.

Womb broom! That is a good one.

Gee thanks, now I have to go claw out my eyes — AGAIN!

I refuse to suffer alone.
