Parents: Teach your kids to be sluts BEFORE puberty Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

In yet another mind-boggling move, Abercrombie & Fitch brought out a line of thongs. Not any ordinary thongs, no no. THONGS FOR KIDS! That's right! Now your 10-year-old daughter can delight her friends at recess by showing off her new A&F brand thong!

Will these people ever stop?

There's no such thing as bad publicity...

This just makes teenagers who hate their parents/society/whatever want to shop there more. This isn't a ploy to sell thongs to 10-year-olds. They want to sell more of them to 16-year-olds, and may whatever deities exist strike me down if it doesn't work.

It still strikes me as a very low move...stomach turning in fact. After the racist T-shirts they produced, it is surprising they haven't fallen flat on their faces. But unfortunately, these things seem to work

I have never seen the company over here, but I would probably avoid them judging by the kinds of antics they pull...

Their target demo is disaffected affluent white suburban adolescents. This kind of b.s. plays great with those worthless turds. "Stomach-turning" is what turns these jackoffs on.

Don't you think that maybe thongs might start to lose their sex appeal in the future if people have been wearing them for as long as they can remember?

They're known as "thong sandals" here, too. Notice how there's a thin strap of material that is wedged between the big toe and 2nd toe? I think analogy did the rest...

yes that is how thong came about. It didn't take too long for me to connect the dots. just a couple of minutes . material between big toe and second toe. and material between butt cheeks.

somehoe I can't see how having a permanent wedgie is comfortable. I never really found thongs all that sexy. I'm not really an ass man though. I'm a breast man.

Take a look at an A&T catalogue--any one will do--I'll tell you want you see:

1 African-American model
0 Hispanic models
0 Asian models
Maybe 1 white model with brown or black hair.
And a whole bunch of blond, white models.

After I saw that, I swore I'd never shop there.

Und now this??
