A&F do this every year. it's a part of their marketing strategy: put out racist, sexist (or both) line of t-shirts. organizers protest & get them more press, they pull the t-shirts as an "apology". (bad promotion = promotion)
* this would make a great case study for final project (hint*hint)

Excuse me... there's a bucket outside I have to be sick in to
What really pisses me off is that people expect women to fall for this crap and buy into tralala, I don't need a mind because look at my suggestive little pink t-shirt.
No offense meant to those who like suggestive little pink t-shirts; offense meant to those who believe they abdicate you from yourself your brain.
