would it be different than seeing the word "juicy" if you did?

DP, but sweats with anything written on the a$$ are trashy. I don't care if it says fckin Harvard. What it REALLY says is, "Look at my a$$, it's my money-maker."

Yup.

I'd think "that person has pants that say harvard". But maybe you're wired different.

*shrug*

if there is some perv creeping on your daughter, the words on her pants aren't causing it. his perversion is.

You are inventing a false dichotomy. This is a discussion about what clothes signal about a person, not whether there is a lecher in the bushes.

is OP's DD the type of person that her husband believes is being signalled? If not, why the concern... maybe his issue is with the girl's behavior, not the word on her pants.

This is willfully obtuse. I think we can charitably assume that OP and her husband do not want their daughter to signal "low-rent" (as PP put it) because their DD is nothing like that at all. Bad signaling invites unwanted and inappropriate attention.

So is the concern low-rent or sexual attention?

I'd argue that the style, cut etc. is more important than any words or logos. But I'd also argue that if you're concerned that someone is inappropriately paying attention to DD's body, it's a problem bigger than a word.

Wow, $98 for a pair of pants now! Did somebody discover their mother's lounge wear? I just got rid of mine in an overdue purge.

Get her one of the styles that doesn’t say Juicy on the butt? I remember being a similar age and being obsessed with Juicy and I cringe about it now…her time will come.

You live in a world of make-believe. We'd all love to live in a world where a girl can have Juicy written on her a$$ and it brings no negative attention. But that is not the real world. It is a world of your own invention.

So, you'd be fine with the same pants, if they had another word or no words?

Living in a world where you think the word "juicy" will cause impure thoughts or whatever is your concern... seems like a world of your own deeply weird invention.

Gee I just don't see how the clothes you choose to wear signals anything at all to anyone else.

When I think about Juicy Couture, I always flash back to Britney Spears' and Kevin Federline's wedding.

"That’s what Juicy did for every celebrity who got married. They’d send them the cute little tracksuits," wedding planner Alyson would later recall.

"I asked Britney and Kevin what they wanted printed on the back, and Britney said, 'Maids! Maids will be cute!' And it was. It was cute!

"And he said 'Pimps' which was adorable… People are closed-minded. It was a joke, it was for fun. It was Juicy tracksuits! Ten years ago people would have given anything for a Juicy tracksuit."

Right. Trashy. But not any more salacious than Alo yoga pants.

Well, yeah. That's the point. To attract attention.

Problem is it will attract attention from the wrong kind of crowds.
Nice boys will look and drool and wish, and bad boys will slap her butt and take it as permission to gets handsy.

That could happen but not because her pants say Juicy on them.

You make no sense.

This is a stupid take.

Yeah, it's trashy. No need for her to be trashy and suggestive, this is where the parenting comes in.

To me, the Juicy Couture brand is low rent, which would bother me if my DD wanted to wear it, but I don't regard it as any more salacious than anything else kids like to wear. In fact, it probably covers more.

If you're concerned someone might read the words on her butt and think gross things:

A) they were thinking gross things before they read the words
B) worry about them, they're predators, not your daughter who is just wearing sweatpants.

Juicy Couture is "low rent" because it is trashy and suggestive. Why else would you think it "low rent"?

As to your points A and B, truly stupid and false.

That take seems, at best, really classist.

And TBH, kinda racist.
