Is Gay Pride missing at Abercrombie and Fitch?
The US garment maker Abercrombie and Fitch has stirred up an internet firestorm after it sent a message out on Twitter which seemed to say Gay Pride is not just for gay people.
The tweet, which has since been deleted, read: "The Pride community is everybody, not just LGBTQ people. - Kayla, merchandiser."
June is being celebrated as Pride Month around the world and Abercrombie was trying to promote its latest limited edition brand in a tie-up with The Trevor Project, a suicide prevention hotline for young lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.
Matt Cain, the Editor in Chief of Attitude magazine, has been telling the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ why Abercrombie and Fitch should have been more sensitive.
