...When asked to explain himself a few days later, Allen said, “I would never want to demean him as an individual. I do apologize if he’s offended by that.” Since Sidarth made clear in interviews that he was offended by the senator’s statements, Allen’s conditional apology (“if he’s offended by that”) sounds insincere and patronizing...

A t-shirt is just a t-shirt, after all, and the proposition that girls need to be paternalistically protected from garments that might demean them is another tired instance of sensational political correctness. Abercrombie made a product, and its intended market enjoyed it enough to purchase it. That is as far as the story ever should have gone, but the campaign of 23 teenage “girl-cotters” shows that some...
