I can't wear this? I don't want to anyways

Abercombie and Fitch is one of the most known brands throughout the world, thanks to it's fashion sense, but mostly since everyone seems to be wearing it. The first time I heard about the issue of CEO Michael Jeffries comment about having the company not making plus sizes available, I laughed and thought it was just a joke someone made since it is something no one should ever say. But then, it is apparently true and when I found out that it was, I was furious, I still am actually. The fact that Jeffries' is only targeting the "cool kids" is honestly disrespectful. It's not like our generation is full of bullies and stereotypes
that causes self esteem problems, he has to add into it which doesn't give him the right to. He is honestly just a big bully in our society.

It isn't fair first of all that he is limiting his clothes to the "thin" people, or the "cool" ones. Who is he to state whether or not you are beautiful or you are a cool person? And when in the world has a size 10 became a plus size? It is very disappointing knowing how in this generation a normal size has become too big.

What type of body you have or the type of clothes you wear shouldn't really immediately categorize you as a "cool kid". Our generations views of beauty have downgraded and it is very upsetting since it causes a lot of us to achieve this level of perfection that isn't really necessary. We are all beautiful human beings and there shouldn't be categories that limit us to feel beautiful. This whole statement is just wrong since it probably caused some people's self esteem to lower down.

Our world is full of different shapes, sizes, colours, races etc. With these differences, it makes us an amazingly diverse world to live in and it sucks knowing that people decide to pick one out of so many to categorize as beautiful. Everyone is beautiful in their own way and no one should ever have the right for them not to feel this way.
