Girlcott This Blog
That is correct. Please GirlCott this blog so I can get lots of free publicity. It seems to be the marketing strategy for Abercrombie & Fitch.
The once-proud retailer of clothing to uppercrust men decided to make a quick buck and hit the mallrat crowd in the '80s. Now that is so, like, 1980s. To goose quarterly sales, it knocks off a dumb T-shirt now and then just to piss people off. Bob Wise fell for this when he was governor of West Virginia and A+F got some cheap publicity.
Now A+F marketeers have come up with a new word -- girlcott -- and some T-shirts aimed at pissing off feminists.
Oh yea, I can see Bella Abzug coming down to the A+F store to decry exploitation. What? She is dead? So is this dumb idea.
So do not girlcott this blog!
