You're just some random person off a Forum, as you said earlier.
Comfortable, yes, that's what I said. He's comfortable with what he is wearing, he's comfortable with himself. It may not be your idea of comfortable but to others it may well be comfortable so it's totally wrong of you to say "oh but it's hardly comfortable blah blah". Just because it's not what you'd wear it doesn't mean you should pass nasty comments about other people who do choose to wear it.
About the stereotyping thing - yes, the main attribute of the stereotype of a chav is that they all have ASBOs etc. However, they don't. It's a stereotype and therefore is a very generalised comment which on the whole, is not true; so there is no way you can make that assumption in the same way I am sure he wouldn't make the assumption chavs all have ASBOs even though he probably doesn't like them.

But the thing is, it's not just me. It's a majority of people who don't really like emos or that piece of clothing. With it being comfortable, you're getting the wrong idea. I've stated how it's been about summer and the temperature and how hot it will be, and how much hotter it'll be with wearing a jacket like that. So therefore, it's not wrong of me to say "oh but it's hardly comfortable blah blah" because again, no matter what he says, with the heat and that type of jacket it is bound to cause him a huge amount of discomfort. Therefore not being comfortable. I don't quite think it's right for you to assume what he thinks, because he may now say that to make me look wrong or put him in a bad position. If he thinks all chavs have ASBOs then fair enough, but if you're going to assume that he doesn't then that's putting him in a position he may not want to be, because you are sticking up for him & you may be wrong on that part.

In my opinion I dislike the jacket, but if you like it, that's the most important thing at the end of the day.

so, whatever floats ya boat.
and also, I hate stereotyping honestly.

I'm not a fan of it. But if you like it alot then thats cool! Try get the one, which the actual main guy wears! D:

my mate has one of them that he wears with black skinnies.

he looks like a ****.

i'm sorry but I agree ;)

Wear what you want, if you like it buy it. I don't think it's "emo" though, according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emo_%28slang%29 just looks camp to me.

Oh and so the majority of people in the UK are white it means you make snide comments about those who are black or asian? It doesn't matter that the majority of people don't like what he likes, what matters is that it's what he wants and comments like "wear your skanky jacket with cut wrists" aren't going to change that.
About the comfortable thing, different people find different things comfortable. Just because you might be hot in the jacket it doesn't mean he will be - some people walk around in t-shirts in the winter when I am in a thick jumper and I wonder why they aren't cold; but they're not, because the cold doesn't affect them as much as it does me. In the same way, he might not feel the heat as others do. Even if he is hot, if he wants to wear the jacket who are you to say it's "skanky", it's what he likes and that's all that matters imo.
As for the stereotyping thing: Okay, maybe it was wrong for her to assume that he didn't think that but it still comes down to the fact that it's still a stereotype and is therefore probably untrue and unfair.

personally, i woulldnt wear it. :rolleyes:
But if you like it, then go ahead :)

Oh god, look what i'v started! Anyway about the 'its summer would you wear black'thing, i go to alot of late night concerts and stuff so i wear it then. Trust me i'v seen alot worse.
