I'm so glad I went to a nerdy school where brains were valued over having the nice car or expensive clothes.

Apparently.

Promoting a culture where girls' best subjects are shopping, music, and dance and not math? WTF?

Why anyone would want to promote commercialism while simultaneously deriding their child's aptitude for math seems a little baffling. 

There are literally hundreds of organizations dedicated to encouraging girls in math and science, and then we have shirts like this.  Ugh.

Headdesk, indeed.

I think I would rather go back to the days when they were promoting girls be rail thin and smart instead of obese vs fat and stupid.

But when little Susie grows up, she just has to make a pizza tape like a Kardashian. You are all just jealous.

First of all, that's awesome LB.

Second, it boggles my mind when I see people wearing shirts that basically say `I'm stupid.' There's nothing wrong with being stupid, but you don't have to let the entire world know! I still see guys my age (late-30s, for now) wearing shirts that stupid or sexist or degrading, and they just are proving to the world that they're not smart. Personally, I wear a lot of Ed Hardy gear and Affliction Ts because those are awesome.

Just just stick with Hulk Hogan tank tops that I can rip off randomly. They are harder to find now so I resort to making my own. Let me know if you want a few.

<---Notice my Duck Dynasty t-shirt.

I was at the mall for the first time in probably two years and I couldn't believe how many people were wearing shirts with profanity on them. I'm definitely no prude, but I found that enormously offensive.

Regarding the people wearing the "Stupid" shirts, maybe it's just the truth in advertising laws?

I had to Google them. It made me feel stupid because I always thought those shirts were called, "Jon Gosselins."

Magic, I usually feel pretty aligned with you, but I'm literally cringing reading this.

Maybe it's different as a joke, and as an adult, and if you never wear it? Maybe?

Still kinda cringing.

Yeah, I'm still lost. "Jon Gosselin"?

lol, my brain isn't quite working today.  When I saw your first post I thought you actually "liked" the shirt.  I thought that was a little odd, but now it all makes sense.  lol

I'm not sure what I'd call it, but there does seem to be a lot of popularity with "I'm dumb" type of attire these days.  Perhaps it's just a counter culture thing trying to embrace stereotypes, but who knows.
I used to have a T-shirt that just said "Nerd" on it.  I wore it proudly.

But she looks nothing like you!

<--------------------

 

Heh.

From what I've seen sprinkled around the forums, I was raised somewhat like LB's kids. I played competitive sports: softball, soccer, gymnastics until I grew out of it. (not all at one time, I was not an over-extended kid)

My brother just had a kid and she is wearing very 'frou-frou' clothes and has things like those shirts, Switch. And she's not even a year old yet. I had a big talk with my brother that he better make sure she's in 'real sports' (don't shoot me, COJ) and not just dance and cheerleading like her mom is going to push. She needs to learn to be tough, take care of herself, be healthy, and  independent. My SIL does NOTHING active. She shops and gets her nails done. Not that there is anything wrong with that for some people, but that's ALL she does. She doesn't even take walks. The kid needs to grow up like LB's kids, or how my brother and I were raised. Not wear clothes like that.

That (expletive) makes me so mad! (many more cuss words had to be edited out of this post)

Nah I'm good -- already have a couple for when Hulkamania runs wild. I also have a nice collection of tearaway 80s mesh shirts. I love mesh.

I wanted to grow up like LB's kid, but alas.. I really sucked at sports, but not for lack of trying. I went out for track and trained harder than anyone.. but was pretty slow. I continued on my own though, running for fun and fitness. 

I spent my teen years playing music, taking dance lessons, and really excelled at those activities.

Kids have to find their own passion.

My son has no interest in "real sports". But he likes karate and science stuff. 

The one thing I am dedicated to that he NOT excel at, is video games. 

Edit: These type of t-shirts on boys really tick me off.

Nothing wrong with that. You tried. And you exposed your kid to various activities, and he's not inactive and interested in education. Karate is great! He's not sitting at home or going shopping and wearing shirts like that.
