racism is everywhere more often than ever....sexism too...in song lyrics...commercials...tv shows...etc.
funny how people only noticed it on t-shirts. but i suppose all you complainers knew this...right?

Racism is everywhere. Who hasn't heard of racism in the clothing industry? Don't get me wrong but I remember Tommy Hilfiger .Everyone avoided buying the clothing .I think a lot Asians rather care less .
 We are group of minority that is silent bout major offenses towards us. If there was a problem, we keep it to ourselves. But if you were white , you would get ur complaint heard , and be on tv in 2 days. Asians, we have our ways. If you tell ur parents , they will say uh huh .. just dont buy the clothing , but you would never see the a group of asians on Good Morning ,America . It just doesn't work that way .Asians have too much conflicts within our "group" we can't easily join in and say we are united ..hear us COMPLAIN. Yes , i know it's patheic they would make a "hilarious" screen tee at our expense. Don't you think it's ironic that asians are usually making that shirt in the first place.. SIGH.. it's going to be that way until we finish inbreeding . There won't be no such thing as white ppl . it's going to be irish-mexican-korean-chinese-jamacian-AMERICAN. |

I would think that those who've been to A&F or heard of it should know that there aren't really any more of these shirts. And if there are, there are very few because I went in there a few days ago and I haven't seen a single shirt. Come on, this is like.. 4 years ago

Yeah, I heard about this and I even heard it from some of my friends. That store is really racist though, I am Asian too but I don't shop there and I will never plan to. I only been in there once and the employees that work there are a bit racist and look at you differently than a white person next to me. Who wants to shop there anyways? Their clothes are really expensive. Gees, are we made of money here? Don't think so!

QUOTE(Just_Dream @ Jan 2 2006, 3:11 AM) I never knew Aero and Forever 21 did that? Yeppp they do, but it was a while ago, like say 3-4ish years when the oriental tees were "in" I distinctly remember Aero having a red teeshirt with like bamboo on it, saying somthing about general chow's resturant or somthing of the sort. I wouldn't call it racism, just bad marketing. Oh yea and btw jason, be racist against white people. I mean, seeing what this board is about and all. :P [/sarcasm] |

I myself am Asian... but I don't really care about that. Well... it does kind of bother me it's a shirt and everything...
I own some shorts from A&F... Burn them?  Nah, that'd be a waste of my $50. When you've heard all the racist stuff against Asians [not saying I have...] then this is pretty much a small thing. Still, that shirt's pretty retarded.

QUOTE(yo pusha @ Jan 8 2006, 8:51 PM) she looks mixed Definitelly.. her face shape makes her look mixed. ... Jason... I'd have to say that there aren;t any non-asians (not that I've ever seen, either in real life or pictures) that have eyes like those.  I mean look at them.. THEY SLANT and the eyelids are thin.. like.. a certain kind of thin.. a very ASIAN kind of thin. And she has a button nose... a small nose... An asian-ish small nose. END OF STORY.Hahah yea it is funny how you boxed the picture. :P It's still funny how some people still think this issue is still going on.. I mean come on people.. READ THE ARTICLE! Look at the date!
