Advice My mother keeps insisting I wear this hoodie, cause she bought it

Post image

I can't stand it, partially because it had something to do with a baby shower which was before I was born anyway

But mostly because it's AI slop, probably made in a sweatshop, and it's not even that warm or comfortable

Any reason I give is instantly shut down, per usual

Bully bait is basically something that will make you more likely to be bullied, whether it be an item, clothes, or a part of your body, as for how it's a trap, it's a trap sent by your mom bc it's bully bait (I was joking about the trap part originally tho figured I would just clarify what I ment)

could you have one of your friends "steal" it? Borrow it and never return it.

A bully will find any reason to make fun of you. It’s like saying pride pins and flags are “bully bait”

Pride pins and stuff have a purpose behind them. This is just an ugly monkey pic.

Never really understood the pins and flags, personally. If you're gay just be yourself and be gay. No need for the adornments and trinkets but to each their own, i guess.

At least for me, someone who grew up wear it wasn’t super accepted to be queer, it was a way that I could say “hey, you aren’t alone” to the closeted queer people

Is it something American? I genuinely don't get what's wrong with the hoodie

He’s 17, bullies shouldn’t be an issue at that age. People at my school wear pokemon backpacks and no one cares because it’s ironic. Just own it.
