Would Dress Your Baby in Fifty Shades-Inspired Style?

I can only hope that all the Fifty Shades of Grey parodies are done. I mean there is a Fifty Shades of Chicken cookbook out there on bookshelves. So I'm going to call it: Fifty Shades of anything has "jumped the shark".

And now could someone please go and tell that to the makers and buyers of these Fifty Shades-inspired onesies and Ts for babies?

I like an ironic shirt as much as the next person on a little innocent baby. What could be funnier than I-Po'od? But "I pretend Christian Grey is my Daddy" complete with handcuffs? Well, this is just too far. And it's not because it is a smutty book.

*Warning, rant ahead* It's because it is a badly-written, vaguely sexist book about a lead character that has nothing redeeming about him other than loads of cash and some curls. I hated the book because Christian Grey was not a hero that I would be willing to give my freedom up for, let alone my car, but I digress. 

I wouldn't proclaim my admiration for the book, or the fact that I needed a little mental push from Christian Grey to get me pregnant. 

But, these would make a funny shower gift. And then maybe a good window cleaner.

What do you think? Would you buy a Fifty Shades onesie for your baby? How about for a frenemy whose shower you were invited to?

Want more chaos? I loved this: the Onion satrized parenting studies and people thought they were being serious, but were they?
