We all know that American Apparel likes to play fast and loose with its steamy, semi-pornographic ads. Well, rumor has it that advertising isn't the only department where CEO Dov Charney likes to spice things up. According to a wrongful termination lawsuit filed by a former accountant, American Apparel decided to can him because he refused a request by Charney to put the company's sales figures in a sexy tank thong to make them more attractive to investors.

Look out people, it's that time once again. Time for warm weather, skimpy outfits, and horny dudes in cars whistling at women as they pass by on the street. Yup, now it's official. According to a researcher at George Washington University, the number of women getting harassed/flattered by catcalling goes through the roof in the spring and early summer. Of course -- if you happen to be a woman -- you probably already knew that.

We're not sure if it actually an ingrained human response to mating season, or just the fact the it's been a few months since most of these guys got to see a woman in a tank top. Whatever the reason, if you happen to like getting yelled at by sweat construction workers- and apparently some women do -- now's the time to prance around in those short shorts.

If you live in NYC, you have a way to get revenge on catcalling meat-heads, it's a website where women snap pictures of the abusers and post them. Hilarious!
