This page displays t-shirts with messages embracing a positive view of sexuality, meaning a pro-choice sensibility, gay pride, honoring all loving compacts, and opposing the prudish, preening, pushy efforts at control by a conservative fundamentalist Christian minority. Why organic shirts? Although we at Irregular Times love wearing punchy progressive t-shirts out in public to annoy the regressive elements of our society into submission, we've always felt a twinge as we did so. The problem has been twofold. First, most t-shirts are made in sweatshops where workers aren't paid enough to live on. Second, t-shirts tend to use cotton farmed using environmentally insensitive techniques. Sad, but true. And how odd, we thought, that one might wear a progressive garment that was not produced progressively. Cognitive dissonance is not fun. So we are incredibly happy to report that we've found a way to offer progressive t-shirts from a no-sweatshop operation (American Apparel) that are made of organic cotton. You can wear these shirts knowing that you are a progressive in deed as well as word, helping socially-responsible garment outfits to thrive. Keep in mind that these are designed as "stylish" organic shirts, which in non-coded language means they tend toward the small. If you're worried about that sort of thing, we recommend you order a size up. |
