Hello! Do you remember the last time we sold t-shirts? Probably not because they sold out within a few days.ย Do you remember the time before that?ย Probably not, it was over pretty quickly because they all sold out within the first day.ย Remember when we hand-printed t-shirts for Dinah? Probably not because those sold out within an hour.
WELL REMEMBER THIS, PEOPLE:
AUTOSTRADDLE T-SHIRTS ARE BACK/HERE AGAIN!
In CHARCOAL!
The shirts are available for the low-low price of $25, and all proceeds go to benefit this website and the people who operate it.

Important Things You Should Know:
1.ย Please allow 2-3 weeks for shipping. It might not take that long but we just don’t want you to get mad at us.
2.ย Every time we tell you that the shirts run big and every time you don’t believe us and every time you need to exchange them. So, just so you know, the shirts are dude sizes and run big!
3.ย Also, Laneia and company wrote a greatย post about how to cut-up your t-shirtย to make it different and cool, if youโre into that.

Oh and yes, our YOU DO YOU fundraising stickers are back in stock! Theseย outrageously popular YOU DO YOU stickers have been spotted all over the universe sported by very stylish lesbians:

THAT IS MY BELT BUCKLE. AND MY SHIRT. AND MY LUCKY DOG LEATHER. AHHHHH!!

Oh yeah I already put it in ASSchat.
I have one but yep.
yay I got one this time
!
aw man…either you guys don’t have the xxs or they already sold out. and i still had the body I had when I was eleven. XP
we don’t have xxs
My pride pic is on here!!!! AHHHHH BEST DAY EVER!!!!!
Yay!
YESSSS! My addiction to the internet has paid off! I FINALLY got a shirt!!! Thank you, you guys rock!
EEK! I remember both times…and I’m yet to lucky enough to find them in stock! Third time’s a charm ;)
This is going to be a very long 2-3 weeks.
I know, last time I ordered I was laughing at myself because I couldn’t remember when I last thought about checking my mailbox on my way home from work.
This makes me feel validated for some reason.
!!! You had to tell me this right after telling me that the box set of Daria was on Amazon for 26 dollars? Graaahhhhhhhh
^The Graces approve.
As do I
Wait, you were already talking about me. NVM
I am jealous of everyone with more than $0.37 cents in their bank accounts. So jealous. :(
You just made me feel so much better about my $18.76 balance.
Seriously, though, that sucks, and I hope your money decides to procreate in there.
Unemployed and living at home. Booyah!
(I will find work eventually)
Gah this post reminds me!Ages ago when you guys were fundraising, I bought a calendar and some stickers..which never arrived :( I think my subsequent emails got lost in the ether. Who do I contact about mayb’s fixin’ something else up? #feelsrudepostingaboutthisbutIwouldquitelikeASmerch
I’m so sorry about that! Contact alex[at]autostraddle[dot]com!
Hey no worries! Just one of those things, I do understand how busy you all are :) Thanks for the tip, I shall do just that :)
/this is me who briefly wondered what a smerch was
/this is me who did NOT get enough sleep last night
this. i remember paying, but i’m not such a stickler on policing AS for sending me stuff *i bought stickers bc you didn’t stock my size shirt*
I’m very grateful to know that the stickers are approximately the same size as a boob.
It’s time we switched over to this system.
Whose boob, though? I mean, they vary so much…
Approximately one half of a D cup, if mine are anything to go by.
Last time, I waited too long to order because I couldn’t decide what size would actually fit well. This is why buying clothes on the internet tends to fill me with anxiety. What if I order the wrong size? I’m pretty sure I’ll die alone.
no no no! *hugs kakapo*
Holy shit, that totally worked this time. Boss.
Yay! I got a shirt and 3 stickers! I’m very happy.
BUT!!!! I realized that I’m an idiot and didn’t remember that my paypal address is for home (my parent’s house) and I am at school right now. Is there anyway I could change that? It’s not a huge deal if it goes there but it saves me from having to have my parents mail it to me.
yes just email riese [at] autostraddle dot com and tell me your new address
Thank you for asking this question; I just did the same thing.
saame. facepalm.
Oh my goodness, I did this, too. And I’m not out to my parents. I emailed Alex. Should I have emailed Riese?
can we get fun colors too?
nothing against charcoal i just think rainbow (solid or tie-dye) would be awesome!! =)
Congrats. Hope they sell out again! :)
I hope my new shirt gets to Australia pretty damn fast because I can’t wait to wear it!
Are you including postcards/pics with a t-shirt order, like with the stickers? Gotta collect them all! jk
I don’t know what size would fit me. I can’t measure right. It’s an American Apparel t-shirt? I’d have to go to a store to try on the sizes before buying online…
wait a minute. postcards, pics? I didn’t get any with my last order of stickers and a t-shirt and there’s C. above me bragging about her collection. Slip me some in this order please and thank you.
Oops. I just looked at what I received to see if I remembered correctly. I got one card that’s half the size of a postcard. It’s got 3 pics of 3 different women, each holding a sign that says Autostraddle.com.
I exaggerated wrongly in my post above! Sorry for the confusion.
My favourite shirt ever; I’m wearing it first day of school :D I also look super awesome in it. The v-neck is just so flattering (my mom always told me that…do you think she’s onto me? lol)
I was so pissed when I missed out on these last time, I’m doing it now even though I don’t really have the money. Yeah Autostraddle!
Yes… ordered a tshirt. Actually, I ordered two.
I feel like I have to wear it to the international AS meet-up!
Sweet! I just bought a sticker to go on my new (naked!) water bottle. PERFECT TIMING, AUTOSTRADDLE.
I… am tempted by the shirts but I’m not sure I want to deal with any misconceptions that being seen from the back might produce. /is a prude
I really like the stickers though? Bought three. In the future, is there any chance of diversifying the T-shirt designs? Maybe making a You Do You t-shirt? Just an idle thought.
I would totally buy a You Do You t-shirt. Just sayin’.
yes that would not seem sexual at all
Wellll true. But at least it’s not saying “You Do *Me*”, which is the impression I, at least, get from “(Auto)Straddle Me.” :P Maybe I’m alone there.
Anyway. Just a though.
JUST TODAY I WAS THINKING (trust me, that needs excitement, I don’t think often enough) and i was thinking, You do You teeshirts they would be the awesome. And then I realised they’d sound dirty. so I was thinking of other things it could say to make it less so.
I’m not nearly witty enough, but maybe something you do you (it’s only as dirty as you want it to be) or (hey! i didn’t mean it that way) or maybe (but having an activity partner is good too)
idk. or something.
or nothing. either way.
My kid TOTALLY wants these to be a thing.
Clearly this is the most responsible way to celebrate my financial aid coming in
It is. Financial aid coming in is like your very own

I am so excited to scandalize bougie older folk with my back that reads “STRADDLE THIS”. Perfect.
FYI we are now down to:
XS – 14
S – 10
M – 8
L – 5
XL – 1
XXL – 5
I would so totally get one, but I ordered one last go around and it never arrived ;A;. Got a super quick refund, so yay AS for being cool about it, but I don’t know if I can stand waiting around for another month (i’m in the UK) to see if it comes, trying not to get excited but failing miserably :(
When reading this post title from afar on my tiny phone screen, I initially thought it said: ‘Autostraddle t-shirts and knickers are back! Get some!’
I mean, I realised my mistake quite quickly, and the t-shirts are awesome, but I still reckon that y-fronts that say ‘straddle this’ on the ass (ASS!) could be a good thing.
Oh hell yes! I would be all over Autostraddle knickers! (Or you know, over someone else’s. Wink wink.)
Me too! But not Y-fronts in my case…
what are Y-fronts?
if we did boyshorts i think they would be this kind. Even though they’re technically for boys they actually fit girls perfectly, I have lots of them.
Ooh nice choice! The Asphalt ones are sexy (as is the female model wearing them, tbh.)
Y-fronts: http://www.yfronts.org.uk/ Just about everyone’s grandad wears them in the UK. :P
But also: I don’t have the sort of shape that can wear boy-shorts of any kind. I like them, and I’ve tried, but they’re just the wrong shape for me. Plain bikini briefs or tangas are better.
YEAH I GOT ONE THIS IS THE BEST. I’m going to wear it with my leather jacket and hipster boots :D
Fuck yes! I bought one! Gonna look kick-ass with my new boots, jeans and suit jacket. :D
Can’t wait to get this baby in the mail; threw some stickers in the cart for good measure as well. Good thing Dallas Pride is in September due to the heat. Hah. (Although I think it coincides with Austin City Limits this year – bah!)
new update:
XS โ 9
S โ 8

OH NO. Awkward timing when you don’t know if you’ll be at home or back to your college town when the t-shirt is delivered.
Bitches.Love.Gray.
want.
My bed is featured in this post.
Life feels pretty complete.
So tempted to buy another shirt, but I have the light grey one from a while back… buy a textbook or buy another shirt?
another shirt
hi! after pre-packing all the orders so far we have a few left over that we’ve added to the store for you
If my shirt somehow gets here before Friday when I go to a superhero party I’m going to wear it as my costume with a rainbow flag cape (and I’ll most definitely upload a picture) SO EVERYONE CROSS YOUR FINGERS!!!
I got my shirt just in time for Dallas Pride last weekend – woohoo! picture-or-it-didn’t-happen: http://sleepypasture.tumblr.com/post/10620925835/hey-oh-its-me-on-the-right-with
