I hope that helps to explain what I meant by that comment.


Thanks for the clarification. I guess I was having flashbacks of folks in high school saying I wore "white girl sneakers" (Tretorns) and played a "white instrument" (violin) and wanting to slap the stupid out of their mouths. I've also witnessed people saying stuff like "so and so dresses like a white girl...", so I thought you were speaking from that vein. Never mind my previous post.
