Behind the Behind

I'm just going to say this and you can agree or disagree with me at will, if you're a woman over 30 years old, you have no business wearing any sort of sweatpants, shorts, boxers, etc. with the words "HOTTIE, CUTIE, WOW" whatever on them.

I was walking down an aisle in Walmart today (another blog topic as well), and I saw a woman who was about 10 years too old and 30 pounds too heavy, wearing a pair of bright red jogging shorts with the words "HOTTIE" spread out over her backside. Now, if I was going to wear apparel making such a statement, I would make sure I looked like a Victoria Secret model before heading out the door, but that's just me. I just can't understand why women tell themselves "I look good" when donning something so silly. What goes through their minds.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all about personal expression. Tattoos all over your body wouldn't cause me to bat an eye, O.K. maybe it would a little. Personalized license plates are an effective way of telling the world a little something about yourself as well. Mine says "6 PAK".

I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you're 6 or 21 years old, by all means, have words sprayed across your derriere, it's appropriate. Maybe I'm just jealous. Maybe I should try it myself before I make the statement that we women over 30 should know better. Maybe if they made a pair of shorts with "MOM, MOM, MOM" over them, I'd wear them. And yes, my behind can accomodate that many words. Tell me what you think about this, I'd be interested in hearing.
