some took offense to the costume...

Well then, don't buy it. See, that was easy.

Oops, sorry. I forgot that we live in a fascist, PC world. Because some took offense to the costume, NO ONE must be able to buy it, look at it, or even think about it.

It's a free country, yes indeed.

Just ten years ago, they would have been pissin’ and moanin’ that Disney wasn’t recognizing their culture. People are idiots. There is no intelligent life on this planet.

Wearing shirts for women is Western.

I insist Polynesian girls walk around topless.

I am crying in a puddle of Tears because these Hawaiian girls wear shirts and brassieres.

I insist they take them off.

Different culture similar problem. My FIL was a Theravada Buddhist learning Pali as its main liturgical language, and studied p its scriptures in the original Pali. Along with that came complex religious tattooing. In the last quarter of his life, he became a devout Christian. With that came a concern with his tattoos — both their religious connotation and the more general Christian prohibition on body marking.

“Cultural Appropriation” is another one of those pathetic and squishy academic concepts that begin and end in the “institutions of Higher(sic) Learning”, and gain traction there and there alone. Like Micro-aggressions of which it is a part, and “safe spaces”. Eventually all this crap will die on the academic vine, but not soon enough for me.
