    See, I was going to say something about preferring loose, male-sized t-shirts most of the time, but having read the article I think it’s an admirable suggestion. Next time I see a cool shirt only available in the men’s section, I will definitely write them an email.

    Not that I have money to spend at ThinkGeek right now. >_>

    I suppose you can send them an email AND buy the men’s size shirt. It’s not entirely in keeping with the suggested resolution, but you raise awareness and get the shirt you like, both…
