This one’s been getting the social media special today, but is always worthy of a re-mentioning.
The latest in sartorial controversy is one very offensive JCPenney shirt that actually delivered this message to the 7-16 year old girls for whom it was intended: “I’m too pretty to do my homework, so my brother has to do it for me.” The shirt has fortunately been discontinued, but it’s pretty shocking that the shirt was at some point an idea that was conceived. The design includes unfinished math problems hovering around the words and hearts and flowers, just to drive the horribly flawed gender message on home. You can see a pic of the shirt here.
