Poll question: Where do DUers sit on shorts with wording printed across the ass?
I often wonder what, if anything, it says about people who wear jogging shorts or sweats with the name of some institution, usually a university, printed across the ass. Are they suggesting that products of the institution are comparable to products of their ass? Are they saying that the institution deserves sitting on? Do they believe that their ass is the only thing people will notice about them, so, if they're going to broadcast an endorsement, that's the best place to do it? I'm not sure I get it. Who wears such shorts and why, and who manufactures such shorts and why? Any thoughts?

1. Other. Hey, if a girl/woman has words on her ass in public, that automatically gives me the
right to read it (stare)... ;-)

5. In theory, I like all types. Skinny, average, fat. Old, average,
young (legal age or above!). Any skin color/nationality/ethnic group.

However...

I have sworn off relationships in the last three years, so the point is moot...

4. I read an article awhile back about this topic
I think it was in the LA times. Said that a survey was conducted and that generally speaking, the larger the logo, words or amount of words on your clothes was inversely proportional to your income or social status. I was amazed as I really started to pay attention to it, that is was, for the most part, fairly accurate. Go figure.

6. I can see that
I must say, it makes me chuckle to imagine some corporate executrite showing up for a board meeting with the words "Harvard MBA" printed across the backside of his/her grey pinstripe suit. :-)

7. Other: Varied responses.
1.Depending on the ass in question, I'd watch it all day long - hard to beat the advertizing value.

2.What institution of higher leagning? Bob Jones University? Maybe not so good. Notre dame? Also not. Texas A&M? Penn State? Sell a million of em! Mayo Clinic? Maybe not them, either...

3. At least it is a SCHOOL or some organization. i saw one at a local mall that read "PORN STAR!" Looked like the girl was about 14. Maybe it was her moms?

It's all relative, IMO.

And certainly not on MY old ass!!!

9. I used to work in a mall
there was a girl no older than 5 in the hallway wearing a pair of pants with the word "sexy" on the ass.

I'm sorry but sexy should not describe a 5 yo

14. You have to assume they have parents, then you have to wonder
what the fuck they are thinking!

18. parents or not, what I want to know
is who in their right mind makes a pair of pants with sexy written on the ass sized for a 5 year old (not a big child for her age either).

10. The problem is they're never clever.
Take the common 'juicy'. Juicy? Do you have anal leakage problems? Is that a subliminal signal to attract the rare and elusive Adult Diaper Pev?

Often you may see 'Sexy', 'Hot', 'Spankable' or what have you on the pants. Thats absurd. Imagine I tattoo 'Smart' on your forehead. Does that make you so? I think not. In fact, it accomplishes the opposite, instantly banishing the desired written effect from the set of your traits. It's like a weird form of self abuse through ying yang magic. Or something.

About the only valid use would be if your ass sported the phrase 'I'm a lumberjack and that's ok...'

13. I would say that it matters more who is wearing the ass prints. haha
If the ass is nice, I say its not that bad a tad on the trashy side but thats ok sometimes.

24. I have Cape Cod butt shorts, but I only wear them to sleep
Every time I go to the Cape I have to get some article of clothing from Cuffy's, the souvenir chain, and one year that was what I got. :D
