obviously I shouldnt even be wasting my time with you because it is clear that you are too stupid to even realise what you said was offensive:cutie:
I'm black and I have never brought anything from applebottom or rockawear
I guess in your mind because I'm black I'm suppose to be dressed ghetto and trashy
while the prefect little white girls shop at hollister and a&f
right?lol(and no I am not implying that I shop at hollister and a&f id rather eat my own hands off)
Thank everyone! Any others?

Also, I am not a white girl. I don't really know what led you to come up with my race out of nowhere and from nothing. I am indeed BLACK.
And there's a better way to put things ya know. instead of "black chick clothes"... more like store aimed toward urban wear. Which covers all races of people who prefer urban clothing.
But this isn't a race issue soooo any more suggestions on store guys? and thank again everyone.

Well its pretty clear what her opinion of black girls is
she assumed the girl was white before even seeing a picture of her
and on top of that after saying the store has allot of "black chick clothes"
shes finishes off her sentence by saying something like "O but you might be able to find some nice stuff"what does that imply?????
and I really do hate when people try to claim urban culture is black culture it is really sad
also I really don't want to get into why I think that way
it is not targeted towards black culture it is targeted towards URBAN CULTURE
but she could have easily said "this store sells more urban clothes"
I'm guessing she might not even know what urban means anyway

why do you keep trying to turn this into something else?
1.I never said she was racist
2.The fact that she made an ignorant comment doesnt necessarily mean shes stupid or racist
that also doesnt make it right
3.What she said was offensive no matter how you veiw it

right because i TOTALLY said that all black people wear that, it was my secret plan.
the truth is, those companies are geared towards black people, and no it's not offensive to say that because it's the truth. and yeah, hollister and a&f ARE geared towards skinny white girls. it's life, get over it.
then again, i mean im too stupid to realize that all clothing companies try to reach the same exact demographic. maybe tomorrow i should go shopping at big & tall!!

Not to butt in here...
While Hollister is geared at a specific demographic, it is not necessarily a racial one. It's targeted towards California bred, laid back, cool, popular, good looking teenagers. That's the truth. If you walk into their stores, you will see workers from every background - but most of them are vivacious, friendly, good looking, and fit. Those type of kids can come in any color as long as they are physically attractive.
Trust me, I've worked there, I've read through their mission statements, goals, rules, target audience, etc.
The only reason they have been labeled as an exclusively white company is because back when the Abercrombie company first started, they had a track record of hiring an increasingly disproportionate amount of white employees in their stores. Now you'll find that it is the exact opposite. My store was filled with Filipinos and African Americans.
Even the models on the wall are diversified now.

I don't think what she said was ignorant either sorry.
If someone said to me "those clothes are more for white chicks" I wouldn't be offended. It's true, different races tend to have different body shapes and therefore different clothes are made for them. It's a fact of life, jeez if you go around getting offended by little comments like that I worry for what you're like in real life.

THANK YOU. i never meant it as a racist comment (which i said in the very begining) and different companies always have different demographics. you call it urban wear? well what about urban outfitters? the only people i ever see in there or in the pictures are white.

04-21-2009, 01:59 PM
Yeah that's a good point as well actually.
And when people say "urban" a LOT of the time they mean black anyway to be honest, it's the politically correct term for it these days.

Ok then, but from my experience black people tend to normally have big boobs and large bums but quite flat stomachs, whereas *most* white people have big boobs if they are fat. Obvs there are exceptions but I remember when I told a black girl at school that her bum wasn't big [I thought I was being nice, it sounded like she was complaining] she sucked her teeth at me and was like "black girls are meant to have big bums" and didn't talk to me for a few days.

Shut the fuck up and get a life, you sound like one of those typically PC people who just want everything to be all racially aware, nobody gives a shit deal with it some shops are clearly for black people just like some shops that stock saris and stuff are obviously for asian people. It's a fact of life, you won't change it by moaning on people on the internet.
