Why I hate A&F

1. This article talks about the history of A & F.

2. This article starts off talking about how A&F was made to gear their clothes towards Gay, white men. Then later on in the article it talks about how the store come to be. The man name Abercrombie had a store of his own. But one day he decide to expand that store, so it became A&F. After his friend Fitch decided to go into business with him.

3.Why does he not like A&F? He said in there that he did not like A&F because the only people who could afford it was rich people and he also did not like it because he says that "a version of it is what is at work in the politics of race in the us. So he does not like it because he feels that it is keeping the stereotypes and race discrimination alive.

4. This was a very long article and i was hoping that it would say I hate A&F for the following reasons. However I found it interesting that he does not like it because it deals a lot with stereotypes, and only certain people can buy their stuff. I would think in order to be in a good business you would want to sell more stuff at a lower price than very few at a high price.
