I'd recommend washing them inside-out. The shirts seem to be pretty good quality. I’d recommend washing them inside-out.

Man, they're expensive. It better not suck or rats will eat your colon. I can see the benefit in the situation you describe, but it still doesn't come close to being worth the potential eroding away of rights. The situation is still boiled down to "reproductive rights is being taken away from [person] for [reason]" and the great concern I have is how easy it would be later on down the line to slightly modify [person] and/or [reason] until it gets morphed into something heinous.

With regards to the show, the topic we focused on was in the situation of someone who was severely disabled, would be unable to care for a child, and didn't even comprehend the concept of sex or conception. Many disabled women who can't care for themselves are the victims of sexual abuse, so sterilizing them can be in their best interest. Actually, you can choose any color you want for the shirt!

Today's reason of mental retardation could turn into tomorrow's reason of poor eyesight. More simply put, there is no benefit gained from restricting procreation for any subset that outweights the risk to personal liberty. I'm probably ordering the shirt. I just wish it was in a color other than white. I'm prejudiced that way.

Sarah, that’s why you should wear this shirt.

Hilly, why yes. :D

Lynda, I guess that makes sense.

Right now I can't see paying $20+ for a shirt. Heck, the last shirt I bought was $4, and even then I debated. :lmao: I probably will when I’m steadily employed again.
