Is It Really Necessary?

This is going to be a little bit of a rant (yes, again) about a store called Spencers. I took Sean Michael shopping last week at the mall and the last store we went to was Spencers. I haven't been in a Spencers in years I guess, but I remembered they sold a lot of gag stuff and some of it sexy, but it wasn't a bad store to go into.

So imagine my surprise when I went in there saw what some of the shirts and buttons and other stuff in there had to say, in plain view at the front of the store. I'm not going to repeat them here, but wow. I mean, WOW!!

Now I am not a prude by any means, and if this makes me one then I'm okay with it, but seriously, I think that store shouldn't let in kids under 18. I think that those kind of shirts, etc are pretty vulgar and I cannot understand why it is okay to have them out there where kids can clearly read them (much less buy them!) And I understand the back of the store is even worse, but I didn't even try to go that far into it.

Yes, I know kids hear that kind of language and sex is thrown at them on tv and radio and in everyday life, but it doesn't make it okay. Where is common sense? Where are morals? Where is respect for the other people that would be subjected to seeing a person in one of those shirts?

No I just don't get it. I don't think the store is funny or amusing, and I personally don't think it should be in a mall. I also know I won't be going into it again. And neither will Sean Michael.
