[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The original poster goes into a clothing store with her son, where everyone is black, and she observes it is mostly or solely black kids wearing these clothes. She wants to make sure that he doesn't offend when wearing said clothes. Asks for advice.

Then she's attacked. OMG what are black clothes? As if there aren't brands that certain races favor. GTFO.

We're doomed as a society.[/quote]

No - we aren't doomed. OP assumes we all live in areas where the black kids are wearing "black teen fashion".  We don't.  If you are in DC or certain parts of MoCo or in PG, you might see it.  But I'm Black and the Black kids at my kid's school (Robert Frost Middle School in Rockville) are all wearing the same stuff that the white and Asian kids are wearing. When someone mentioned DTLR, I remembered seeing this store in Wheaton Mall and recalled some of the styles in the store. However, noone is wearing that where I live and I honestly have no idea what Black kids are wearing at other schools.  So, yes, it sounds odd. Don't get defensive.[/quote]

So it would be double strange is a white kid showed up in school wearing black fashion, correct?[/quote]
