Slutbucks

Just watched this bit on CNN,  it seems a group in San Diego isn’t too happy  with the retro Starbucks logo.

The Resistance says the new image "has a naked woman on it with her legs spread like a prostitute," Mark Dice, founder of the group, said in a news release. "Need I say more? It’s extremely poor taste, and the company might as well call themselves Slutbucks."

The logo to the right is actually a more revealing logo from 1971, the one referenced above was slightly altered to make it less revealing.  I wonder if anyone complained back in the 70′s?  Given what I have heard from that decade my guess is that few, if any, noticed. 

Group finds Starbucks logo too hot to handle
