By the way, what happened to the "men's" and "women's" community b-boards here???

[hooligan]

where's the love for all the asian boys?

[rice cracker]

Couldn't Urban bring themselves to use an Asian model? You know, for added effect.

[John0101]

where's the love for all the asian boys?

hey thats a good idea.

[haku]

It's wierd. Why would a white woman wear this shirt???

[Tao]

these ppl just want the activist groups to make a scene about this, a la A&F, so they can boost sales. All the while claiming that the statement isn't racist....which is a very debatable topic, especially when you're talking about trying to convince the majority that "everyone loves asian girls" is a racist statement, if ppl already have problems saying that the A&F shirts were racist.

Urban's attempt to spark contraversy is so blatant that it's just plain pathetic.

[hooligan]

It's wierd. Why would a white woman wear this shirt???she's a hapa that looks REALLY white.

better yet, she's a J.A.P.

JEWISH AMERICAN PRINCESS. :biggrin:

(it's a play on words and a bad joke, please kick my ass)

[Faithless]

Silly rabbit, haven't you figured out by now that whites represent everyone? :biggrin:

What a sort of queer campaign.

It could be worse, the designs could feature Asian chicks in kimonos or hair done up.

[rice cracker]

I think haku means why would a white woman buy this shirt?

I could see a super twinkie wearing a shirt like this. The kind of girl that would say, "I LIKE being exotic!"

with chopsticks in her hair, all the while feeding sushi to a white business man.....wow, i sound bitter :tongue:

Exactly, I could see a banana reeally loving this shirt, but why would anyone else wear it? Unless they are trying to be more Asian/Exotic, like those white women who dye their hair black and wear cheong sams...

WTF, mate?

Alright. I understand that there are people out there that hate Asians and personally want to see them either dead or shipped back to mainland China (don't worry, I do too)--still, a line must be drawn somewhere. And the line ends here:

(Insert UO pic here.)

Now, the t-shirt reads: "Everybody loves an Asian girl."

And what ethnicity is the girl?

Answer: Not Asian, that's what.

What the hell? The Latin t-shirt gets a Latin model, the German shirt has an Aryan girl but, no models for the Asian shirt? Why is that?

Answer: Communist propaganda, that's what.

Come on, how hard is it to find an Asian person to wear the shirt? Honestly.

talking girl burnt her homework at 8:22 PM oh yeah, that's right.

[hooligan]

I think haku means why would a white woman buy this shirt?

I could see a super twinkie wearing a shirt like this. The kind of girl that would say, "I LIKE being exotic!"haha, yeah. i guess they couldn't find any asian models who were willing to be called "sellout" or the like. so they picked up a white girl and was like, put this on. i don't think they even needed to show her face. just the close up of the bosom thank you very much.

i was just trying to make a bad joke. it was bad, and it wasn't a joke.

[kasia]

i have the pics saved on my hard drive in the event that we decide to start anything against this.

[hooligan]

^i don't get her whole "they should be shipped back to mainland china" thing....wtf?that's racist!

i have the pics saved on my hard drive in the event that we decide to start anything against this.

Oh, goody, kasia is always thinking ahead :smile:

UO is probably just working this "Everybody loves a ... Girl" theme.

You might as well wear a shirt that says: "Please come rape me White Man, I'll love it!"

[kitty]

that's so weird. they couldn't at least get an asian girl to model that t-shirt?

the white girl has a strange expression on her face like... "everyone loves (to chop up with a hatchet) an asian girl"

[kasia]

i guess they could argue that they are celebrating diversity. but why do the shirts say "girl" rather than "women"? are they into pedophilia? also, why aren't there shirts for men?

I always wonder ... what's the line here? It often appears as if companies are looking for this kind of publicity. How do we hurt them?

There are a couple of shirts for "boys" on the site--"Everybody loves a Jewish boy" and "Everybody loves an Italian boy." Plus I guess you could argue that most of this humor is pretty adolescent--thus, for girls and boys and not men and women.

[Faithless]

If we were to complain about the "Everybody Loves ... Girl" line, we'd be too late:

Tee shirt messages (http://www.canada.com/montreal/montrealgazette/story.asp?id=CCA2DA8E-2137-46CB-91CE-27C5DC43B106)
An Urban Outfitters T-shirt with the slogan "Everyone loves a Jewish girl," surrounded by tiny hearts, shopping bags and dollar signs, angered B'nai Brith Canada. In January, the organization said the T-shirt perpetuated the myth that Jews are greedy. Urban Outfitters agreed to modify the shirt, removing the dollar signs from the design.

DON'T GET ME STARTED!!

[Faithless]

Actually, UO has been on a roll at pissing everyone off. Witness this:

Magnetic Jesus attracts complaints (http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_895001.html)
A Pennsylvania clothes shop has caused outrage in the US by selling Magnetic Jesus Dress Up! novelty toys.

Buyers can dress up an image of Jesus on the cross in different outfits including a tutu, flippers and a devil's suit.

The Magnetic Jesus Dress Up! kits are being sold at Urban Outfitters in Pennsylvania which has received complaints from shoppers.

Urban Outfitters says it's not seeking to "provoke or offend" but to reflect the diversity of opinion among its customers.

The creater of the toys, who goes by the name 'Normal' Bob Smith, insists he's doing nothing wrong.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with religious satire," he told NBC10. "People have got to learn to laugh at themselves, it's part of human nature."

[Chester]

i guess they could argue that they are celebrating diversity. but why do the shirts say "girl" rather than "women"? are they into pedophilia? also, why aren't there shirts for men?
Am I the only one that sees this as sarcastic sort of commentary?

"Everyone loves an asian girl" as in, "mainstream society is totally willing to embrace asian females, in contrast to how it treats asian males and males or females of any other race." The fact that it's being sold at Urban Outfitters makes me think that it's aimed to appeal to white female bitterness at asian women "stealing" white men, thrown in.

And while that's rather catty, I don't see it as "racist" so much as I see it as jaded/snarky...

[nifer]

actually, the reasoning for using the word "girl" is because their target consumer is mid -teen to early 20's. though i admit, that those in their 20s would rather be referred to as "women"

*shrug*

[Chester]

*shrug*
I see that...plus, "girl" just sounds more colloquial than "woman."

[Seamus]

I hate UO anyway because they're trying to be all hip, indy and streetsmart, but they're just another friggin commercial establishment. I'm not categorically opposed to commercialism, but I hate it when firms masquerade as something other than what they really are.

I saw a couple of "Everybody Loves an Irish Girl" shirts yesterday, reflecting how much of how Irish American culture has been reduced to kitsch. Asian American culture hasn't reached that level of kitschiness, so I agree with the assessment that the t-shirt is more targetted toward snarky white girls or Asian girls with a white/black fetish.

But I can't seriously imagine a non-Asian wearing that, either. It would be like me wearing a shirt that said something like "Everyone loves a black dude": I'd either be setting myself up to get mocked or to get the shit beaten out of me.

[moJo]

i've seen a lot of chicks wearing the "....Irish girl" and "...Italian girl" shirts. i guess it was only a matter of time before the "...Asian girl" shirts came out. Also I remember the J.A.P. controversy from a few months ago...

i want a "everyone loves an asian guy" shirt. a nice big eff-you to urban outfitters. :) someone make one!

lastly, i'm guilty of owning two shirts from there. *hangs head* $20 for a pink wifebeater that says "unsweetened". $24 for a tshirt about chocolate. waaaay over-priced, yes. bleh. i agree with Seamus - they masquerade as a trendy-vintagey store.

[kasia]

I see that...plus, "girl" just sounds more colloquial than "woman."


that's what they used to say back in the days of slavery when they referred to black men as "boys".

umm..but they have "everyone loves a jewish boy" too....how is that sexist? you can argue it's degrading to some extent, but it's not just focused on women.

um...i was working on the assumption that they didn't have such a shirt. i stated so in my previous posts.

[Chester]

that's what they used to say back in the days of slavery when they referred to black men as "boys".
Is it?

My point is that I don't see the use of "girls" on the T-shirt as being any different than when I, for example, will refer to females my age as "girls." That is...perhaps it's semantically condescending, but I don't see it as having anything to do with race.
But I can't seriously imagine a non-Asian wearing that, either. It would be like me wearing a shirt that said something like "Everyone loves a black dude"
I don't think so. That UO shirt -- as stupid as it is -- seems, to me, to be playing off of how it now seems obligatory for every single local news channel to employ at least one female Asian reporter/anchor...stuff like that. The whole "Asian females are embraced by the mainstream" thing [1], whereas black males are most definitely not embraced by the mainstream.

[1] And I'm not, of course, implying that the mainstream, in the process of "embracing" Asian females, doesn't objectify/exotify/whatever Asian females.

[krome]

http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/images/us/local/products/productsall/p94997e.jpg
So, there ARE or there aren't the same T-shirts for Blacks, Latinas, Whites, of both genders, etc?

[Seamus]

I apologize for the major tangent, but we have these Chinese family friends with a not overly sharp and mediocre-looking daughter who wants to be a local news station anchor. I make fun of her and say things like "Oh, you want to be the next Connie Chung," or "Oh, I heard you wanted to be an Asian Female Newscaster." I'm an asshole.

It makes no difference if they have one for "boys" too. In fact, I'd probably argue that the company purposely chose to do so to deflect criticism.

Whether or not UO is an equal-opportunity offender isn't the issue. I still think the shirt is offensive. And I think there is a peculiar intersection of race and gender that makes the "Asian girl" shirt particularly problematic.

In any event, using "girl" to refer to a woman is sexist.

[haku]

So maybe they're being highly sensitive and inclusive by including the "Asian Girl"?

Is there a "Black Girl" tee? Or a "Blonde" or "Brunette" or "White" Girl tee?

Back to the America's Top Model quote: "I want April to win because she's Asian, Exotic and Commercial."

So everyone does love an Asian Girl right now?

yeah, there are "blonde" and "brunette" shirts....check out the link i posted up a few posts ago...

no black or white, though...

[Shinran]

It's only a frickin' shirt. We're damn lucky it didn't say, "Everyone loves and Oriental Girl". How about some other highly charged names?

Yeah, it's all in bad taste, but it's not a crime...yet.

[krome]

^^ It's interesting how they won't use any direct reference to being WHITE - but tiptoe around it with ethnicity, hair color or religion. White pride is politically-incorrect - whereas Asian/Latin pride is acceptable - in an assumedly patronizing way.

And I guess black folk don't shop UO so they get left out, lol!

[SunWuKong]

wait... why is this shirt offensive?
maybe i don't know because i'm not an Asian girl...

You know you're doing alright, if you can piss-off the National Review:

Rage Against the Vote Rockers (http://www.nationalreview.com/goldberg/goldberg200403100940.asp)
UUrban Outfitters, a 58-store chain that has made millions from marketing fashion for young people who want to look like they still live in their parents' basement, sold a t-shirt so vile — so Just Plain Wrong! — it's thrown big swaths of the media, the do-gooders at Harvard University, and that wall of sound usually called "youth-outreach groups" into paroxysms of rage.

The shirt wasn't racist, sexist, or any of the other outrages that usually send sensitive America into regular bouts of St. Vitus's Dance. No, this bonfire of outrage has been lit by a most unpredictable torch: a t-shirt that reads, "Voting Is for Old People," which has subsequently been pulled from stores.

Outside of that, UO line mentioned above is really DULL looking.

Maybe the models are gay/lesbian? That's the only reason I can think of.

And when the waiter asks if I need chopsticks I'll just hold one palm up and say "No need," as I pluck them from my hairdo.


my brother has this shirt actually. He apparently gets a lot of compliments for it...and it's not a bad looking shirt on the average-slightly large running asian male frame.

i think the whole thing is to throw more fuel on the fire between azn girls and guys. everyone doesnt love azn girls or u wouldn't have the mail order brides being killed by the husbands or azn illegal immigrant women having to work in massage parlors. or sexist "love u long time" stupidness.
i don't think it's even that... it's just pure unitentional irony."everybody loves a buddhist boy", "everybody loves an irish girl", "everybody loves an italian boy", "everybody loves a latin girl", etc. contemplate all of those for a moment. then you'll see what i mean.

but 1) I'm female 2) I'm barely Asian and look full white 3) My spouse is full Asian. In other words, I'd look ridiculously Asiaphile wearing it.

[bluemonq]

maybe they should make a "everyone loves an asiaphile" shirt? :tongue:

Yeah, Lew's right. If you wear it, you'd be big upping your spouse, which is a plus for Asian guys who wanna increase the social caucasian female affection. Actually, you'd really only look "Asiaphile" if you wear it while NOT being with your spouse.

And that is exactly why you should wear it!.

Hell no. The "Yay WF/AM!" legion will have to recruit elsewhere.

Well, at least hold off on it until I complete the "I'm not pissed off at you, I always look this way" shirt that's currently in the works for you.

Hell no. The "Yay WF/AM!" legion will have to recruit elsewhere.I wasn't thinking about that I was just thinking about the great reactions you would get walking down the street.

I think the only reactions you'd get are head scratches because the only Asian boys people can only conjure up in their heads are William Hung or Jackie Chan. :rolleyes:

I should make a shirt that says, "Only I love Asian girls, no one else. Come to me, my little golden pots of honey." I'll make hundreds.

I am in awe of your capitalistic prowess.

ooh, that could be of good use.

*rubs chin* hmm. that does sound like fun.
