You may not think so but we do? That's basically what your reply is, so I responded the same. See how that works.

I see exactly how it works. The only difference
is you have to insult ppl when you disagree with
them like an untrained 4 yr old.


>Or I could've done what this whole post was about and shown u
>some respect.


That would have required you being a respectful
person to begin with.

comfortable? People very often tour the
white house in tees and shorts, and it's
never viewed as disrespectful to be in
there like that.

Not wearing a suit to go to the White House when former drug dealers like Pusha T has enough smarts and respect to wear one is fucking hilarious lol

Even racist republicans know to wear a suit when you get invited to his house lol

Pretty sure *you* just tell 'em they're only
mad because he's black or whatever your usual
schtick is. You ain't foolin' nobody.

>Not wearing a suit to go to the White House when former drug
>dealers like Pusha T has enough smarts and respect to wear one
>is fucking hilarious lol


There we go again. Anyone who disagrees with you
is lacking smarts in your small brain.



>Even racist republicans know to wear a suit when you get
>invited to his house lol



Yet they still disrespect him, because
that "disrespect" argument is usually
about the way he's treated and addressed,
not what the person has on.

You're insulting anyone who disagrees with you,

1. Sartorialist David Tang suggests calling the WH social secretary for advice:

"If, however, you are going to a small gathering or a fairly intimate repast (of no more than a dozen, say), then it would be perfectly in order to telephone the presidential social secretary at the White House for the exact dress code: not to ascertain what you are not required to wear, but what you are asked to wear."

2. from the pix i've seen all the other folks who attended the meeting wore suits. J. Cole stuck out. i suspect that happened b/c those other ppl were (properly) advised to wear suits. maybe b/c they or their ppl called the WH social secretary. or b/c they just have common sense.

fuck you.

is this devil's advocacy or do you actually believe it's acceptable for a person to show up for a business meeting w/the POTUS at the WH dressed in sweatpants?

like, if your son had a meeting w/the POTUS at the WH would you be okay w/him showing up for that in the same clothes he'd wear to go play basketball w/his friends?

what's going on here?

fuck you.

you're one of those.

right on.

most ppl and most parents understand that there are situations where ppl need to dress up to show respect for an occasion or person. like when a person is going to court where they are a party to civil or criminal or family case - generally they're advised to at least wear business casual clothing. the point is to show the judge that they respect her/his authority by wearing clothing other than casual or relatively informal stuff. similarly many houses of worship ask congregants/parishioners/visitors/et al to dress up to show honor to a deity and to the congregation itself. the same is true when meeting heads of state or royalty when one has been formally invited to meet w/the head of state to discuss business.

i'm sure this isn't new to you.

anyway, that's why some of us are bristling at J. Cole's attire - it seems disrespectful. or like he didn't take the meeting seriously. like he wasn't honored to be invited to have an audience w/the POTUS. especially considering we're talking about the first black prez and J. Cole is a young black man invited to speak w/the president about Cole's work on mentoring programs targeting young black men. his appearance kinda sent the wrong message to the young black men he mentors - considering he'd be wise to advise them that when they're invited to a meeting like that they should dress in a manner that presents them in their best light and communicates respect for the person/org w/whom they're meeting. showing up in sweatpants for that meeting doesn't accomplish that.

fuck you.

In response to Reply # 67


  

          

i have no idea what you're going on about.

i'd advise a student not to wear Daisy Dukes and high heels to school b/c that outfit likely violates the school's dress code as it's likely to disrupt the learning environment. but even if it doesn't i'd advise the kid to consider wearing something else that shows s/he is taking school seriously.

fuck you.

The idea that we have to be wearing suits
to be respected as human beings, etc.
That was probably one of the main issues
discussed, and of the people present, it's
very possible that he had the most insightful
things to say.
I'd love to see an interview where
someone asks him about why he chose to
dress the way he did for the occasion.

no.

i have a problem w/what J. Cole wore to the WH for a business meeting w/the POTUS b/c that attire showed disrespect to the POTUS. i disagree that J. Cole needed to dress up in order be shown respect BY the POTUS. the POTUS should show that respect w/o regard for what J. Cole wears. but J. Cole displayed bad form by not dressing up for that occasion.

fuck you.

i meant that we here in this post are not engaged in respectability politics as i understand that phrase.

i'm not saying J. Cole didn't deserve to be respected b/c of his attire. i'm saying that he showed disrespect by dressing as he did. so 'this' ain't that. meaning - the criticism of J. Cole ain't respectability politics. i wasn't speaking on J. Cole's motives for wearing that outfit - i dunno why he wore it.

fuck you.

they asked for HIS help. He respected them enough to show up. They should respect the HIM that shows up. Otherwise ask someone else if its a dealbreaker.

I'm all for respecting the process, but if this isn't some formality then yeah let's talk business, not attire.

His message and his appearance. We can easily talk about both independently.

The message in his music might be positive relative to the other visitors. That doesn't change the fact that he is dressed like a bum to meet the President.

A hairstyle change isn't a reasonable expectation under the circumstances. In addition to that, a hairstyle may have some cultural, or personal significance.

93. "i'm reminded of that Cosby Show episode where Vanessa brought home"
In response to Reply # 73


  

          

her fiance, Dabnis Brickey. in the end the Huxtables came to like him but at first they were turned off. it was b/c of the way Vanessa presented him. Dr. Huxtable likened the presentation to having one's favorite meal served up on a dirty trash can lid.

that stuck w/me b/c it went along w/lessons i'd learned from my parents that'd been reinforced at school and in church - the importance of appropriate presentation when one is trying to effectively communicate. and as a lawyer i apply that lesson considering i'm in the business of persuasion. i understand that the ppl w/whom i'm communicating are more likely to receive my message if i present myself appropriately given the context in which i'm presenting. so i'll wear a suit to court when i'm trying to persuade other lawyers and judges and juries. i'll dress up when i'm meeting w/clients. i might not dress up in a suit when i'm out on an investigation. i might not dress up when i'm meeting another lawyer outside court - depending. but anyway, point is - presentation matters.

i'd definitely dress up if i were invited to the WH to meet w/the POTUS about a program or an issue that's crucial to me. b/c i'd want my message to be received and i wouldn't want the POTUS to spend too much time thinking about what i'm wearing such that he might not hear what i'm saying.

fuck you.

but real talk, why does okp get so upset when discussing female attire when it comes to short dresses and plunging neck lines?

or sagging pants???

seems like as soon as we have that discussion everyone runs back to the other side and claims a pers9n can wear what they want.

120. "I had a doctor treat me once wearing a club shirt"
In response to Reply # 93

like the shit had a glittery sheen. And he didn't wear a white jacket.

It's already a trip when doctors are around your age or even younger but that threw me off.


Turn out to be a good doctor though.

When I was fresh out of college I was on some appearance didn't matter it's all about the brains. Took me awhile to get the importance of the whole appearance thing. Like I just started buying ish that fit me in the last five years.

110. "How do you fail to separate his message from being dressed appropriately..."
In response to Reply # 107


          

Nobody is questioning his message or even his qualifications. That is a completely separate issue from the way that he is dressed to meet the president.

What if he showed up in his drawers? Would that be okay? I mean he still has a good message and he graduated from college, so what does that matter.

and (generally) folks thought it was dope that he was even there. him and his boys went "jail pose" and i didnt see a negative peep

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CSbF9ipUcAAh15j.jpg

this whole convo is odd on multiple levels....slow Monday I guess

not picking a side, just noting this is an odd thing to wrangle about AFTER THE FACT (note to self: know your audience)

Would you show up to a $1,000,000 mortgage interview wearing that attire?

Would you allow a man to show up to YOUR wedding wearing that?

A funeral?

no one is calling for Cole to have been arrested by police due to his attire and indeed he wasn't arrested. his right to dress as he pleased is not questioned.

the question is whether his attire was rude. bad decorum. disrespectful. distasteful. ill-mannered.

but we agree that he was well w/in his rights as an American citizen to wear what he wore.

fuck you.

There's a time and a place for everything and in this case, looking like a bum for that situation wasn't the time or place. Especially for a dude in his 30s.

Wearing a suit or at least dressing in a business casual outfit for this one occasion would not have killed him. I swear, some of you cats on this site will defend some of the dumbest things in the name of non conformity.

Who went to college.

Pusha T's probably the only true 'Illustrious School of The Corner Boy' graduate and even his ass showed up looking like a Reverend.

While I do love what J Cole does as far as causes are concerned, something about him irks me...as if he's putting up a well calculated front.

Similar to how he was a bit irked when people found out he was married...there's this image he's trying to cultivate that seems fake.

and anyway the point here is that it was rude for homie to dress that way for a biz meeting w/the prez - the first black prez. especially since homie is a black man who works w/black men and is a leader/mentor. w/all of that i'd expect him to WANT to show respect by dressing up. you know, as all of the other attendees seemed to dress up.

fuck you.

All Biracials especially those that have a white mom are the worst they go extra with any black cause to prove they are down ie Alicia Keys but you should find all their black love shit funny since their cousins who they are down with are white as some white on white uptowns.


It is comical
