what do you think of the parents complaining about the panties with the statement...

I guess I don't see the controversy over underwear with this written on them. What's the big deal? I don't think the saying is at all sexual, or obscene. I could see the same saying on a tshirt. Is it because it's on underwear that it's a problem?
I dunno...I would say someone is making a bigger issue out of this than it deserves. Adults often seem to do that--make something sexual and "bad" about something that was never intended to be. In their attempt to "protect" children from whatever it is, they end up making a bigger deal and the offending item is cast into the spotlight--apparently the national spotlight, as in this case.
I personally wish if the parent was offended that they either get their children out of the underwear department or just leave the store. Let us make our OWN choices. Let other parents have the same right to decide for themselves, and not be over-protected by the removal of a pair of panties....so silly!

Okay, I have 3 girls, and I must admit the only reason I wouldn't buy them is I see little reason to buy a girl $3 underwear when Hanes sells 6 packs for $10 
Literally I saw the article on the coverpages of foxnews and had to ask a coworked why I should be offended by them, and she was also stumped. I read the article to find the following IDIOTIC quote:
"There's nothing quite like telling adolescent girls that they don't need to worry about finances since they have their very own moneypot between their legs," Jessica Valenti, the executive editor of Feministing.com, wrote on the panty blog post.
I just must ask---ARE YOU SERIOUS???? How on earth did she get that out of a stupid pair of underwear...some people amaze me--and not in a good way.
Is that really all you have to complain about?
