A pair of chinos has sparked a Twitter debate over what's funny and what's downright sexist. Emma Barnett, the digital media editor for the U.K.'s Daily Telegraph tweeted a pic of the washing label on a new pair of pants her boyfriend purchased. The label gives wearers basic cotton instructions, as well as the tip, "or give it to your woman, it's her job." The company that sold the pants, Madhouse Fashion, responded by tweeting that it had failed to proof the care instructions, which it says were "clearly meant to be a joke," and "will be more careful in the future."

Solid! Hopefully the woman doesn't Clorox them...

I saw this on MSN, I got a little chuckle out of it

I fail to see the problem.

They will backpedal and remove the labels going forward. It's a shame you can't make a joke about anything anymore. It's not even because it's actually offending someone, it's because the PC police think it MIGHT offend someone...

You're with the rest of us then.

Every man needs a wife, you can't blame the govt for everything.

Not much to debate - It's funny because it's sexist.

People need to stop being so fucking over sensitive and realize that occasionally in this life they are going to get their feelings hurt. When they figure out how to deal with it they will grow as person. Nobody needs to be sued or counseled or reprimanded.

Unfortunately I think this planet is past the point of no return and not even Bridget Fonda can save us.

I need to buy some of those pants.
