Agreed Sul-won,

Oakley is beginning to realize that the Asian market is a very large market. They would be silly not to keep up with the recent trend of releasing AF models. The sun in Japan is pretty bright, I don't know how people don't wear sunglasses, let alone quality ones such as Oaks. My titanium irdium lenses were no match for today's shining Asian sun.

I'm not going to lighten up when biggotry is involved. To me, there's no difference between a sexist and racist. It's all the same kind of prejudicial thinking. He owes all women here a very public apology.

But if I'm retarded and stupid for daring to debate an opposing viewpoint, perhaps it's just me that doesn't fit in here. I didn't realize how maniacal some could get for daring to critcize Oakley. That's what it comes down to I think. I said something, nothing any different than what many have said in the past, but I'm retarded, it must be my time of the month...

Seriously, on how many forums is this kind of behavior ok? Not many that I know of.

Sorry for daring to criticize the almighty O. I'll take the hint and be sure to make myself more scarce in the future. I apologize for invading the boy's club.

In no way is this place a boy's club. I think many members have taken exception to your comments because you persist on speaking very generally and on behalf of all women. Your comments are also pretty confrontational. We're all peace loving people here, we just love Oakley and like discussing it. In fact, this is definately the most open and friendly web forum I've ever read, let alone taken part in.

In my opinion,lose the attitude or just go away and never come back.
There are better ways of expressing yourself than to keep on raving about girls who buy fashionable Oakleys are "idiots" and Oakley exclusives are "rip-offs"
Everyone knows I'm not really into the fashion side of Oakley,but I still respect it,and everyone who likes it,and they do look awesome on a huge ammount of people.

Nascar is supposed to be about bringing it to the fans, but I think they only mean those fans in the red states. Rednecks like these aren't usually aware there are any other countries in the world. (Yeah, I can say that, I'm from the south)
Racist (a wink smile doesn't change that fact)

Guys can argue until they're blue in the face that they think they understand this, but it seems they don't. ;)
Sexist

Get off your high horse. Where do you get off pulling out the racism/sexism card?

I believe sexism and rascism to be pretty different things. Rascism is a lot more harsh. Sexism is something that can be disregarded pretty easily. A sexist comment isn't underscored by hate. A guy may make a sexist comment about a woman (or vice versa) but obviously the guy doesn't HATE women. Someone makes a rascist comment about a black/asain/jew etc, it's fueled by hate. Two different things. Either way...

...My best friend got back to me after I sent her a link to those new Grapevine and Script pics. She said:

"I must admit Fo they are quite good sunnies. Oakley are out doing themselves really. I really like your new sunnies by the way [*my Spikes]. You will think this is really terrible but i had to buy sunnies at the dollar store the other day. they were the only ones i could find in little old canmore. they cost me $1.50. cool hey"

NO KRIS, NOT COOL. I will get her some cool Oakleys when I see her again.

Good points. We gotta save that friend of yours. What she did was just not right. Is she in Canmore Alberta?

99% of the time, this forum goes peacefully. I've seen far worse on many other forums, and by reading your blog (glad to see we finally got a cameo) you know that as well. But your stance far exceeds a typical opinion, which once stated, is over and done with. Arguing on several different threads, whether it be Mac, Christmas, Women, or Exclusivity over and over just gets people tired. Sul-won above stated her opinion above, which I believe was similar to yours, but did it in an appropriate manner. Lo and behold, people agreed and we can all exist happily this way. But being confrontational in any manner isn't going to win you a popularity contest.

If you don't like the O, then why are you here.

Ok, that's enough nonsense.

Thread locked, back to peaceful banter about Oakley.
