Fresh Off Their UVA Triumph, Radical Feminists Find Something New To Obsess Over

"Surf" laundry detergent decided to do a limited edition packaging suggestive of mega-selling mommyporn book Fifty Shades of Gray.

The packaging urges buyers to "Remove your flirty shades of Surf," and then says that Surf has "Scentual Oils."

Yes this is all pretty stupid and makes no sense.

I don't get it, but whatever. They didn't write the book for me, and they're not making the special laundry detergent packaging for me either. If someone out there feels like they might get a little sexy boost doing laundry with "Scentual oils," I won't stand in her way.

Radical feminists, however, are devoted to the proposition that not a leaf may fall from a tree without a hysterical denunciation.

And so they've stepped up, demanding that Surf take this #WarOnWomen laundry detergent from the shelves.

Remove your 'flirty shades' Surf product from sale #boycottsurf

I started this campaign after seeing an advert for Surf's Flirty Shades liquid. It glorifies and normalises abuse of women and is not appropriate to be sold as a laundry product. Laundry products should not be sexualised and children should be protected from seeing this. This product needs to removed from sale by Unilever ASAP and a public apology should be made to all of those women who have suffered abuse. Thank you kindly for you time and support.

Hysterical, dour, grim-faced puritan lunatics.

Some people might say that these are bored, unfulfilled suburban women with diagnosable tendencies towards hysteria, looking to inject some drama into their safe, easy, uneventful lives, creating histrionic narratives of oppression in their dreary day-to-day shopping routines.

Other people say that Pluto is not a planet.
