Maybe it’s because I am an Aunt and not a mother. Maybe it’s because I am not pumped full of mommy hormones, but I find the new limited edition Jean Huggies weird and a little disturbing. The website uses the tag line “The coolest you will ever look pooping your pants.” They don’t look cool because a diaper is essentially puffy, unattractive underwear, and it does not matter what design you print on them, they look stupid. The disturbing part is the ad campaign. A baby strutting down the street with a shirt tucked into his diapers while people stare and sexy runway music plays. It borders on kiddie porn. Who is the demographic for this product anyway?
I only caught this commercial once, but once was enough. I vow to never, ever purchase these. How utterly gruesome!!
ReplyDeleteReally? Seriously. I'm sooo liking these. They're just the cheesiest thing ever, hence I must own them and place them on baby's bottom!
ReplyDeleteI am attracted to the kitch, the corniness, the cheese, and everything about these that makes them sooo horribly ridiculous. Love it!
Julie and I figured out the demo for this product. It is the same parents who enter their toddlers in beauty pagents...
ReplyDeleteHey! I almost bought a box for Nik!
