Forever 21 In Trouble For Men’s Shirt Making Light Of Rape

Forever 21 has removed the product from its website, and offered the following statement:

“Forever 21 strives to exemplify the highest ethical standards and takes feedback and product concerns very seriously. With regards to the t-shirt in question, upon receiving feedback from our customers, we took immediate action to have it removed from our website. We sincerely apologise to anyone who was offended by the product.”
