I think the art could be better, but I actually like this idea.

At the risk of being a gigantic prude, I do not wish for that to be happening on my shirt.



I think the art is fine (the shading is just right) and the concept communicates really well even without knowing the title, though. Nice work, just not for me :)

it would be "paw" not hand. Very funny. Need to work on the execution tho.

Bisexual Nova, I'm sure canadianbeaver didn't mean any harm with the Bi-polar part. Or did she?



The bear on the right makes this T-shirt for me! But that being sa

This has absolutely NOTHING to do with mental illness. Can we not use words anymore???



And thank you, Frick.

At first I didn't know whether to be offended or to laugh, and then I cracked me up. Love the rightmost bear's eyes. I wouldn't wear it, though.

it's really funny but the art needs some work... why polar bears?

serious about the art..... not about the polar joke...

"This has absolutely NOTHING to do with mental illness. Can we not use words anymore???"



only if they don't mean anything. How can you use a word and say it has nothing to do with what it means? that makes no sense.

But without the words being on the shirt, I don't know if people will get it.



"it's really funny but the art needs some work... why polar bears?"



See? how could it NOT be polar bears!



anyway- if you've read many of my comments you know how I feel about puns. :-P

your art work looks like someone ate a rainbow an shit on a shirt.

polar bears or canines?
widsithgrey
widsithgrey on Jun 18 '07
"This has absolutely NOTHING to do with mental illness" - Except that you NAMED the shirt after a disorder in the DSM-IV. I find it offensive to BOTH my field of psychology AND to bisexuality! Christ, why don't you come up with a better idea, please? Line-stepping is one thing, out right inappropriate molestation that manages to convey the wrong idea about two horribly misunderstood things is really not the way to go.



I hope this does not get printed. I would want to punch anybody wearing it.

squamousguy on Jun 19 '07
funny, but on a shirt? nay
13strong
13strong on Jun 19 '07
widsithgrey - I think you need to take this a little less seriously. It's a stupid joke that has nothing to do with manic depression. It's just using the term "bi-polar" as a stupid pun, not making a joke about a horrible mental illness.



And why is this offensive to bisexuality?
IHUGROBOTS
IHUGROBOTS on Jun 19 '07
why must people take it so seriously

its a tshirt design.

yes without the title i didnt really get it

maybe work on the illustration too?

tranquilsquall on Jun 19 '07
I don't feel as if the artist did anything offensive. The shirt doesn't imply anything offensive about bi-sexuals, and this particular bi-sexual is a polar bear; thus he's a bi polar. If you're taking it negatively, you're adding your own preconeived negative connotations to either of the words, which is unfortunate.
loloseamstress
loloseamstress on Jun 19 '07
unless you are an actual manic depressive bisexual polar bear co-habitating with humans who would actually wear this shirt you are taking things a little to much to heart. It is a pun. jeesh.

loloseamstress on Jun 19 '07
too* much to heart

haha, thats hilarious!! just the play on words is funny (dont say i'm making fun of bi-polar ppl please, one of my very best friends is bipolar, and i think she would love this shirt, haha) I just would never be aloud to were it :P

I love the concept, not wild about the execution. What the bear is doing to the other guy bear is a little much for me.
Randy Jackson
Randy Jackson on Jun 22 '07
Yo dawg, I couldnt help but laugh at the nonchalantness of the middle bear. With that aside, I don't know if I could see it working on a shirt man. The execution is decent, but doesn't really stand out for me. Just keep doin your thing dude, you'll get there.

widsithgrey
widsithgrey on Jun 25 '07
It's offensive because it's implying that bisexuality is related or associated with molestation or that bisexuals need to have a person (or polar bear?) of each sex.



I also really, really hate puns.
