It may be a difference in opinion on the matter, but should is not unrealistic and dishonest. At one point slaves "should" have been free. At one point black people "should" have been given equal rights. The things that should be typically arent unrealistic and dishonest. They are difficult to get people to go along with because they require a change of the status quo. Its much easier to think of all boys in baggy pants as thugs regardless of their character because you've been doing it for years (and you're conditioned to do so). Its much more difficult to not be judgmental and lump people into groups. Imagine if you had to suddenly assess each person on their character and merit regardless of what they're wearing. God forbid! The horror!
Not true. My parents did not have an issue with the way my siblings and I dressed. We wore the popular 80s and 90s hip hop trends. However, the hookers and thugs themes never resonated with us so we didn't partake in them. <---- Did the thug style resonate with a lot of others? Was it very common? Did a lot of others wear it and buy into it? If they did then you and your siblings were not the norm/average. Thus you arent the you I am refering to. I probably should have been specific to say that when I said you I meant the people who followed the popular trends during their youth that were unpopular to their parents/adults.

We aren't simply typing about styles of dress and whether people find them pleasing to the eye. It has already been established that we aren't just typing about that. We're typing about the meaning behind looking like a hoodlum and those who confuse that look with being "hip hop." Or whatever excuse otherwise good kids are using these days.

I am well aware that style of dress particularly the "thug/hip-hop" style leads some people to believe that the person wearing it fits a certian stereotype. The issue is that some people (typically young people) believe that this should not be the case. What I wear does not define who I am. I make the clothes, the clothes do not make me. As such, people should be able to assess me for who I am and not for what I wear.
Will they? Probably not. Should they? Yes.
