Today, I went to the store to buy groceries. I didn't care how I looked, so I wore an old shirt that said, "Thousands of my potential children died on your daughter's face last night." I ran into my girlfriend's parents at the store. FML

Today, I went shopping with this girl I like while my girlfriend was busy. We ended up going grocery shopping to make dinner together, and I ran into my girlfriend's parents. FML

Today, I, a forty year-old man, went to the store with my teenage daughter and infant son. I got some very dirty looks. FML

All my fault

Today, I went clothes shopping. I took my little daughter into the dressing room while I tried some clothes on. She somehow managed to open the door while I was changing. A lady outside then bitched me out for "exposing" myself to her kids. FML

Today, my girlfriend went shopping at Victoria's Secret with me. While she was in the fitting room, her parents walked by and saw me. They don't approve of the store, so I panicked and told them I was considering becoming a woman. FML

Today, I was shopping at Costco for a romantic evening with my girlfriend, I bought some flowers, dinner, and a super pack of condoms, At the register behind me, I heard somebody say, "Good thing my daughter has a responsible boyfriend." It was my girlfriend's father. FML

Today, I was in a clothing store with my girlfriend. I saw the ugliest hat ever on a hat shelf, tried it on and said to my girlfriend, "Look at this ugly hat, it's absolutely horrible. It's even dirty." An old woman stood next to me said, "Well no wonder it's ugly, it's mine." FML

Today, I went to the store with my 4-year-old daughter. While I was trying to change into tight jeans, which weren't completely on, my daughter opened the curtain and yelled, "It's the Mommy Show!" Everyone there heard her and saw me. FML

Fashionista

By Cousin_Greg - 14/08/2024 06:00 - Canada

Today, I got dressed in a hurry and grabbed what I though was a basic white shirt from the clean laundry pile. It wasn’t until I stepped into the elevator at work and saw myself in the mirror that I realized I was wearing one of my girlfriend’s shirt. It was snug, had a floral pattern, and made me look like I was trying too hard to be trendy. It was a long day. FML

Judgmental much?

Today, at a supermarket, I ran into a girl I knew in high school. She had two kids with her and they were buying school supplies. My cart was full of beer and snacks. After a chat, she left, not before saying, "I hope things get better for you." I have a job and a girlfriend. FML

Today, I went to the store to buy some new shirts. I tried them on and none of them fit. When I walked out to return the shirts, everybody was staring at me. I looked down to see why. I'd forgotten to put my original shirt back on. FML

...Why do you even own a shirt that says that, much less wear it in public? XD. This made me laugh, but you definitely deserve it. Wear vulgar clothes, get in trouble.

Briana, although you didn't directly acknowledge it as one, I'll take your comment as a reply to mine (probably wrongfully so, but whatever). First, read post numbers 109 and 157 for my opinion on the shirt. Anyways, regardless of how funny the shirt is, just because something is made fun of doesn't mean it can't be enforced. Do you honestly believe that someone finding a misogynistic shirt funny correlates with their thoughts on rape? I'd hope not. You have to be able to take a joke, even if it is in bad taste. When the guy who made that shirt made that shirt, he wasn't thinking "Hmmm...how can I express my hatred for women in a way that everyone will be able to see?", but more along the lines of "Hey, my teenage son had a funny Facebook status today, I should so totally make that into a shirt. It would be hella cool."

Briana, "rough or immoderate vehemence, as of feeling or language" You're right, no physical brutality is needed. But, as I said: "Well, I suppose if his girlfriend hates him finishing on her face, and he forced her to endure it, then sure. But I doubt it." So it's not a case of that. I'm sorry, but being a victim of related incident doesn't quite allow you to override the dictionary. Neither do sarcastic comments that imply a lack of understanding of condescension.

Forgive me for not finding humor in jokes that exploit women in an effort to entertain people. As long as people allow such "jokes" to be printed and verbalized then women will continue to be victimized. Such jokes desensitize people to such VIOLENCE. And please do not show me any dictionary definitions. I will have a Master's degree in about 6 months. I am capable of reading. And in case you're wondering: my masters will be in psychology and womens studies. My entire career as a graduate student has been saturated with analyzing the patriarchal values of Western societies and how humor and entertainment at the expense of women is deemed acceptable. The only way to ameliorate it is to speak up, even if it is against a "stupid" statement printed on a shirt.

Ok, Briana, as a female myself I sympathize with your anger. HOWEVER, it is not an act of violence towards women unless she is FORCED to do it. Having a guy wank out a load on your face in rather disgusting, yes, but if you're down there by your own choice, then your fault. It isn't sexual violence and some women get off on it--why, I don't know. If it is forced, then yes, it is sexual violence, But thessad is right: Just because someone out there finds a shirt funny doesn't mean that all do. And it isn't going to stop women from receiving protection, corrupt systems are. Blaming the company for sexual violence is like blaming Smith and Wesson for gun deaths. That isn't how it works--it is people, not companies. However, I agree that the shirt is tasteless and that any guy who wears it is a complete ass. He did say it was an "old shirt," maybe he grew up after buying it...
