Have to say I agree with you - I'm not keen on the FCUK 'play on words', and particularly distasteful at a child's party. Mandy (who tries hard not to be an old misery lol) |

Hi Kim, My problem was not with the t-shirt particularly but with the fact that it was worn at a 4 year olds birthday party. There's a time and place for everything and I didn't think that was the time OR the place. Mind you I did see a girl of about 10 the other day wearing one saying 'If you think I'm a Bitch you should meet my Mother' What Mum in her right mind would let her child wear that???? Linda |

My son wears them, but inspect what s on them, also Ted Baker, and such like. He is 12, I let him, so what does that make me look out to be? I think he looks good in them and I remimd everyone it stands for 'French Connection UK' as on any web site .uk! The rest you could have found on any t-shirt going back to the early 60's. Sorry to get on my hight horse, but some of the stuff worn in the 60's, 70's were far worse! Kim |

It stands for, French Connetion UK, but i do agree it is not very tasteful for a designer label that is expensive i might add. Shirley Ann. |

I can't bear those fcuk ones either - they all seem to be bought by people who think they are screamingly funny. |

My grandson had a party for his 4th birthday in a hall and obviously some of the Mums and Dads stayed. One Dad turned up in a t-shirt saying FCUK Like A Bunny. I spent the whole time trying not to get him in the photos. What do you think? Linda |
