This morning I stumbled across this story. How draconian! Speaking as someone who fell away from the Catholic church less than 30 seconds after high school graduation, even I am stunned at this story. It was a white suit for crying out loud. I don’t remember what it was, but I had to wear some kind of white outfit for my first communion. It sucked having to wear a tie.
You can run all of the Catholics Come Home commercials you want, but when you pull shit like this don’t be surprised when the first false advertising lawsuit lands on your doorstep.
I guess my real issue here is a guy could have worn that suit to first communion. There would not have been hubbub over an all white suit vs. white-shirt-dark-pants.
Much later in life, if she decides she wants a guy, she’ll figure out she needs to wear skirts and heels because pant suits don’t cause traffic accidents or get anyone to hold a door for them. Even Ellen puts on a dress once in a while.
