Forever 21

When I go to a store, I shop around and find what is appealing to me.  I pick it up and think, "Is that something I would wear?"  If not, I put it down and keep on going with my shopping adventure.  Some t-shirts I come across I laugh at, while others I just don't care for.  However, I never found sayings as simple as what has been brought up at Forever 21 offensive. 

Forever 21 has designed a shirt (among many) making playing jokes about school and math class.  Typical teenagers tend to not like school work and mostly, algebra.  Who likes math anyway?  Sure there is a handful who have that talent for numbers but most just find it time consuming.  Anyway, the shirt was intended to be playing and funny; along with most of the shirts in the store.  Forever 21 has a unique style that appeals to all different style tastes. 

The greatest problem I have with this controversy is the fact that people are saying the shirt is sexest.  Umm hello, Forever 21 is an all women's store.  So no, you won't find a shirt for men's with text that opposes against school or math class.  Go down to a department store however, and you can most likely take your pick of men's graphic tee's with witty sayings.

If you don't like a shirt, put it down and keep searching.  Not everything was made to fit one style perferance.
