Heres a question for you:
Why does it matter if they're selling an image?
The whole point of clothing, at least in the summer time, IS image. Otherwise, we would all be walking around naked.
People like to look good, this is a fact of life. Why arn't we all up in arms about Fitness centers advertising pictures of beautiful women? Shouldn't the point of a fitness center be getting healthy?
For many people, it's not. I go to a gym 5 times a week because I want to look good. I buy Abercrombie because I want to look good. I eat a can of tuna for lunch instead of a bigmac because I want to look good.
Image is a MAJOR part of many people's lives, and belitteling(sp again) other people because they want to fit into a certain image is, in my opinion, a terrible thing to do.
Now as far as the article goes..well..as I said earlier, you decided why an entire school population was buying X clothing and then critisized them for it. Sure, many of the people are buying it for the sex image(what's wrong with that, again?), but im sure there are those who buy it because they like the clothing, or they have a relative who works there so they can get it cheap, or the other endless possibilitys that there are.
