I bought this shirt about ten minutes ago. I absolutely adore it, though I have lost 2 friends to suicide. Perhaps I love it for that reason.

Then again, to me, it isn't neccessarily about suicide. It's more about dying, and the beauty that comes after death. Or maybe the metamorphosis into a new person after you die.

My mother doesn't think so.

She hasn't forbidden me from purchasing it, but she has told me she doesn't approve and that I can't wear it around her, or to school.

Should I cancel my order? I mean, the shirt is beautiful. I'm not the type to purchase some hysterically morbid shirt just for shock value. It means something to me, and I like it, but I see her point.

I don't know.

Opinions, please? Or some way to explain to my mom why I like this shirt?

Thanks to anyone who responds. =]

if you are buying it with your own money, and really want it that badly- then do it

you can always wear a jacket over it whenever mom's around

Haha. Yea, I guess I just don't want to disrespect her.

Hmm, yea, I could.

Thanks. =]

Buy a shirt with a big penis on it instead.

i think it's about whatever you want it to be about. just like a song, or any other art. :)

Hahaha, that's just a brilliant idea. That'd make my mom proud, for sure.


Yea, you're right. Thanks! =D

the shirt is very powerful and it will certainly offend people who can't see past its initial violent nature. To me it make light of a very heavy subject. If your going to wear it then you should be prepared to explain whatever you think it intentions are.

If you can't wear it you could alway frame it and hang it in your room.
It's a great piece of art so why not...
