TOKYO - Hello Kitty is no sexist.

The cute cuddly white cat from Japan's Sanrio Co., usually seen on toys and jewelry for girls and young women, will soon don T-shirts, bags, watches and other products targeting young men, company spokesman Kazuo Tohmatsu said Friday.

"We think Hello Kitty is accepted by young men as a design statement in fashion," he said.

The feline for-men products will go on sale in Japan next month, and will be sold soon in the U.S. and other Asian nations, according to Sanrio.

The usual bubble-headed shape of Hello Kitty was slightly changed for a more rugged, cool look to appeal to men in their teens and early 20s.

For example, a picture of the cat on a $36 black T-shirt has the words, "hello kitty," instead of the usual dots for the eyes and nose.

Hello Kitty is one of mascot-obsessed Japan's biggest "character" hits, decorating everything from a humble eraser to a $48,000 diamond necklace.

The planned products mark the first time Sanrio is developing Hello Kitty items especially for males, Tohmatsu said.

But Sanrio had tried a "limited edition" collaboration in men's clothing with designers in Tokyo's chic Harajuku section earlier this year, and they proved popular, he said.

"Young men these days grew up with character goods," said Tohmatsu. "That generation feels no embarrassment about wearing Hello Kitty."

Bag, maybe. T-shirt, no.

It's not the face that's the problem, it's that damn bow. Admittedly, without it, it would probably be unrecognizable.

This looks like the kind of thing you can only wear when you are with chicks/your g.f.

Cats are cool though.

But then it just seemed too creepy.

Problem: how do you get in the mood in the first place?
Personally, I find it creepy. All those oversized eyes staring blankly back at you. Even if you're in the mood it'll give us guys performance anxiety.

It' like trying to get in the mood at Disneyland.

I'm positively outraged by this dreaded example of evil imagery. You call this art? How could they do this sort of profanity to something so cute and innocent like Hello Kitty? :gasp: HOW COULD THEY DARE? Bastards! :hyperventilates, passes out:

What about Daisy duck? She wears heels, but don't wear any panties or a skirt, Hoe. freak. I thought Paris Hilton was bad with the pics of her in that car with that nicely trimmed. . . . . . well you get the point.

WTF are we talking about this s--t?

Now I'm thinking about Care bear. Gives a whole new meaning to the care bear hug.

Ha ha. The disease spreads...

The thing is, and if I remember right, Disney forced Howard the Duck character into wearing pants. Would've made more sense the other way.
