sorry to be the black sheep, but i think it is cute.
i would definately buy a "crazy for you " bear for a boyfriend for valentine's day.(if i had a boyfriend)
i also think it would be a very cute gift for a psychologist or psych tech if you had a coworker and you worked in the hospital, etc...
it's just my opinion that the "politically corect" rule has gone too far in this country, to the point of infringing on basic constitutional rights.
while i understand the defensiveness people may feel about the bear, or that it compounds stigma.... i just know a lot of things can be viewed that way.
example: i have seen many stuffed animals dressed up in a jail outfit with a ball and chain that ex-cons may find offensive, i have seen a lot of angel bears that athiests might take offense to, and devil stuffed animals that religious people may take offense to....
but that is the beauty of freedom of speech...
i speculate that they only pulled the bear, not because they think it is wrong, but because bad press will kill their profits.
