Perhaps I'm being too harsh. After all, today's fashion does lean towards conformity. Gap does sound strangely fascist in their ads that chant "everyone in cords." But when I brought the topic up with my friends, they not only agreed with me, they added to my list of complaints. "Look at how they depict women!" my roommate intoned.
