    to shop at places like weathervane, hot topic, forever21, Aero, etc ? Clothing places where their teens / young adult kids would normally buy from.

    If you saw the same cami in Macy's for $20 and the other in Forever 21 for $12 which would you buy?

    i think it's way more acceptable than buying clothes at baby gap like I've seen a few dudes wear. Seriously, they need to stop that as much as the nipple flaunting tank tops at the gym

    If it fits you I see no problem with shopping there. I dont like it because the quality is cheap and wears out too fast.

    I'd be more worried about whether it's acceptable to judge where another adult chooses to or to not shop.

    Your profile says you're only a year older than me, and I think half my wardrobe is from those stores.
    And Bootlegger; it sucks up all my disposable money, but I love the clothes at that store.

    If I like it, it's going home. I don't give a rats fart what the younger set think.

    I'm 28 and I still dress exactly the same as I did when I was 16, I still shop at hot topic and my body is the same as when I was 16 so it looks no different really. However it probably helps that I look young and get mistaken for a 19 year old on a daily basis.

    And how is it your business? I'm almost 42 and I still wear the hell out of cargo shorts and flip flops. If someone doesn't like it then they can avert their eyes

    If I'm spending money, then why would management care?

    Why would anyone else other than management care if I shop there?

    How acceptable is it for a grown adult to let other people control the person they are to the point that they'd cut things they enjoy from their lives just to please others that have no bearing on their quality of life?

    Answer: It's ****in not.

    I took a quiz on Facebook that said I'm actually a 19-year-old boy, so I'm good, right?

    What do you consider a "Grown Adult"?

    I mean, I thought I was, but I buy dinosaur and Disney princess shirts from there on the regular. Do you have a problem with Blackheart? That's their sister store. They sell adult items, so I'm guessing it's okay for grown adults to shop there even if they have some of the same stuff as Hot Topic?

    I'm 37 and I do. You can find age-appropriate, cute things in those stores.

    I buy clothes if I think they look nice on me or I look nice in them, regardless of who they are marketed to.

    I may wear them differently, though. For example a miniskirt-length dress might look great as a dress on a 17 year old, but on me I wear it as a tunic over leggings. (I'm 50).

    Totally. I love my American Horror Story and Patrick (from Spongebob) t-shirts I got from Hot Topic.
