“F-Bomb Princess” video isn’t offensive...
Kids can't utter words and ideas like that! |
- F-bomb ad pulled from YouTube (mashable.com) For the latest ad campaign from t-shirt company FCKH8, the brand enlisted five children to spread the word about issues regarding gender, race, and sexuality. These costume-clad princess girls address inequality, gender expectations, and sexual assault with unexpected frankness. The clip features cursing aplenty amidst statistics about the gender pay gap, rape, and violence against women.

The video opens with the girls sweetly cooing, “Pretty!” while posing in their gowns and tiaras. But three seconds later, they switch gears and shout:
“What the f*ck? I’m not some pretty f*ckin’ helpless princess in distress. I’m pretty f*ckin’ powerful and ready for success. So what is more offensive? A little girl saying ‘f*ck,’ or the f*cking unequal and sexist way society treats girls and women?”
