Typically when the words, GHETTO FAB are heard, the associated group is typically BLACK PEOPLE. So that being said, if an NPC Sorority decides to throw a GHETTO FAB party, who will they be emulating? When I see my students, Black and white, acting GHETTO FAB, they sure are not imitating Garth Brooks or Brittney Spears. They are emulating and often times OVER EXAGGERATING Black people.
Do I have a problem with it? NOt really. What irks me is when those who normally would not act or dress in a "ghetto fab" way decide to do so. As we have seen in the past couple of years, folks do not know how to imitate something without going overboard in an offensive matter.
