Shirts off season is on hold for warmer weather.... Well... At least for some us non-Aussie folks and those not brave enough (or maybe just more sane) to be shirtless in the snow.
Post your favorite or current Eskimo suit look. Or whatever Eskimo related option you prefer.

But I like to say Eskimo... Plus I have a love for carnivores.3

People in many parts of the Arctic consider Eskimo a derogatory term because it was widely used by racist, non-native colonizers. Many people also thought it meant eater of raw meat, which connoted barbarism and violence. Although the word's exact etymology is unclear... But unless you're native to the circumpolar region, the short answer is: You probably shouldn't use the word Eskimo.
