Wow. A & F is into a lot of offensive stuff these days. Just a week ago, there was a huge outcry in a lot of colleges about these T-shirts the company had produced. They had these stereotypical Asian pictures (you know, people with slits for eyes, short and stubby, wearing cone-shaped straw hats) and some captions like "Wok on!" or something like that.
Personally, I didn't find it offensive (and I'm Asian), but some people who actually came from Asia were miffed. I did agree that the shirts were kind of tasteless. I don't know anybody who would want to buy an overpriced T-shirt just because it's brown with a picture of a stereotypical Asian on it and a lame pun for a caption.
We ought to get some newspaper to do an exposé.
I'm sure A & F employs people in sweatshops, too.
