"And, let’s imply that all service members are male and all they want from women is sex. Let’s insult women by inferring they only wear things because it would make a man happy.”
Works for me. ;-}

Capt Seid Waddell - you never know. Some women are not built like linebackers and can do well in martial arts. I have met so many people(females) in the miltary that don't fit the stereotype. I say it is possible and probable.

I guess Army Wives will like it if it's behind closed doors with their husband. I'm sure some strippers will probably come up and use it as a routine. It actually is patriotic and as far as I know the middle uniform goes Obsolete in less than two months so WTF? Who cares if anyone is offended. Maybe church lady with a body mass index of 50+ cares because she can't wear it. I know its humor but some may be offended that it is skimpy.

Yes but there are army wives will be offended to it but they would look like Jabba the Hutt if they did wear it while some army wives who don't have problems with their thyroid or other medical problems that probably be able to wear it. Some Women are inherently jealous as you can see in all these stupid shows like the Kardashians and the botox wives of unhappy allergen County and some have the vanity to show off so I know not too many women look like the anorexic models of Victoria's Secret but I still think it will be a success if marketed to the right people but then again only 1% serve in the military so hipsters may not like it did rather have a picture of Charles Manson on it instead lol

SSG Edward Tilton - I guess if you wear the American flag as boxer shorts is one thing unpatriotic. You go to clothing sales now you will see different kinds of military themes American flag shirts that may have the army unit or show Army Pride or patriotism in a positive way that everyone can approve of.

I chuckled at the commenter on the linked article who said that it was disgraceful because soldiers have put their lives on the line to earn the right to wear that shirt. That would mean that my generation of soldiers put our lives on the line for the right to wear the Banana suit. Ugh! It reminds me of the NFLs commercials were a players tells of all the games he played in and injuries suffered in order to wear the NFL jersey, and then they show a kid next to him saying "I just got mine on NFL.com!"
Sometimes it seems that some vets are coming across as a whiny, entitled group. Like in FL some wanted to make it so only people who served could buy the Army, Navy, etc license plate design. Fortunately people pointed out that you would eliminate al the people that want to show support for the services, and cost vet organizations hundreds of thousands of dollars from sales.
Our military is the peoples military, bought and paid for by the American taxpayers. If they want to wear a T shirt that says Army, go for it.

You are so right Colonel! I thought the whole thing funny! I can't believe people get mad over it, and I can't believe people would pay good money for a torn shirt!
