My wife and I were in the local Penny's a few months ago. After looking around for a while, I finally asked her "Who is buying this stuff?" Their clothes just looked weird to me or at least not geared to the older generation. So, I started looking at the younger people walking in the mall and it sure didn't look like they were wearing the Penny's junk either. It seemed like Penny's was more out of touch than just the gay thing.
They used to have a good selection of sensible outfits for middle-aged women, at a great price if you waited for the sales, but recently, I haven’t been able to find anything.
That is what happens when gays design clothing. All you have to do is look at the whorewear geared towards LITTLE GIRLS and young women- shorty shorts, mini skirts that barely cover underwear, midrift tops, halter tops- and it just seems to me that gay men want women to fail. Wasn’t there a situation recently where some store selling children’s clothing offered padding for young girl’s bathing suit tops to give the appearance of budding breasts in a suit designed for a 4-8 year old?
The whole company is responsible for their downward slide. There was not one voice of reason when some idiot said, ‘Let’s gear EVERYTHING toward gays- a gay spokesperson, gay women in the Mother’s Day catalogue, gay men in the Father’s Day catalogue, yea!!! Let’s do it!!’
And then when people protested, people who had spent a lifetime of earnings at the store, the company’s response was to tell the managers to walk away from the customer in mid sentence, leaving them standing alone without even listening to their complaint.
I feel sorry for the workers, but what worth do they really have in a company who has announced that the company is going to replace them with scanners?
