[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Correct me if I'm wrong, but that isn't any specifically valued or sacred or special image for Brazilians, is it? It's just the word "Brazil" and some pop culture-ish black and white images. It's not traditional dress or anything. I think it's just fast fashion using the word "Brazil."[/quote] OP here. Yeah, there's certainly nothing sacred about it -- it's not like, I don't know, wearing a yinyang without knowing what it is or something. But saris and dashiki aren't sacred either, and it could be considered culturally insensitive to just wear one because you like the way it looks. I guess this is more like how in another post people were attacking people's kids for wearing college sweatshirts that are for colleges that they most certainly won't get into. [/quote]
