The Anti-Shocker

hollistertees

Hollister back to school t-shirts are inappropriate. They have sexualized messages on them.

I can’t even muster up any fake shock today. Sorry. Am I officially desensitized or just having an off week?

Jezebel can at least still muster up a paragraph of “gross and inappropriate.”

If we had half a brain we’d – as parents who buy their kids’ clothes – let Hollister, in this rough economy, go bankrupt. But I know us better than that now.

Share and Enjoy

I know just what you mean about desensitized – it gets totally overwhelming all the junk we need to fight that demeans girls and women. But I suspect your energy for the fight will return…..

Only part of me is shocked. I’m not shocked at all at Holister’s actions. If I’m not mistaken, they are a part of Abercrombie and they’re known for their naked models in inappropriate poses. Part of me is shocked just because it’s wrong.

You are right we as parents could put Holister to bankruptcy but I guess unfortunately there are not enough of us out there. I know some don’t like it but they don’t have the guts to tell their teens No you can’t wear that.

My heart breaks for the girls who have nobody to tell them that these shirts are demeaning.
