Hoodies



Does wearing a hoodie make you bad?
Of course not, how can a piece of clothing make you bad, I mean does this lttle dog become bad because he is wearing a hoodie?
This link is about a lad who had a ban on him wearing a hoodie lifted for the same argument http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2005/aug/30/ukcrime.prisonsandprobation
We are stereotyping teenagers who wear hoodies and frankly that us not fair. Many teenagers and people of all ages wear hoodies, I wear them and so does my 2 year old son and we are not 'bad'. Well he isn't yet!!
So why the big deal, there has never been any issues like this over caps and they can be manipulated to conceal part of the face. It is not as if they are walking around with balaclavas on!!
This link is also about the misbehaviour of teenagers, again hoodies are mentioned and now it the term hoodie is related to the wearer, so am I a hoodie because I wear one? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1505729/The-Year-of-the-Asbo.html
Okay I agree there are alot of kids out there who need asbos and punishment but leave the clothing out of it. There are plenty of troublemakers who don't wear hoodies, just a thought what are they called?
