A Very Woody Hug And Kiss for Tree Lovers

Posted In: environment, not really bumpers, slogans

There’s something kind of sexy about a tree hugger. It’s not for nothing that people talk about getting a “woody”, or that the ancient Greeks imagined that sexually attractive spirits lived within trees. Trees are phallic, penetrating the sky and earth alike.

Right wingers are out of touch with this natural symbolism of sexuality. They’re so much into dirty, stinking oil wells that I don’t think that they really have much fun in the bedroom. They mock environmentalists as “tree huggers”, and don’t realize that this very phrase reveals how much they’re missing the boat.

This t-shirt (made here in the USA, free of sweatshop child labor) takes the right wing insult and embraces it, much as environmentalists embrace trees: I don’t just hug trees - I kiss them too.
