If you read some of my other post you would see that i stated, i dont wear baggy jeans, i wear levies, (fitted jeans), i also said that i wear polos, i dont wear white tees unless its a v neck and deff not baggy, and yes a fitted cap. I also said that i do not believe in the "because im black phrase". I think before you comment you should actually read my post before criticizing. I have more of the "prep" look. The only thing that you might have said that evens applies to me would be the music, which btw i dont blast, but i think a lot of YOUNG people do in general.
being that i am a college athlete i not on represent myself but, my family, team and classmates. I dont talk uneducated, i dont pretend to be anything that im not. In a way you kinda of just did what i was saying a lot of people do, u suggested that i did all these things which i stated in a previous post that i didnt do any of those things lol

So what you're saying is you don't walk, talk, or act like a thug, so what reason do people have to think your a thug. Do you want people to feel bad for you because you're stereotyped as such? Don't say 'well I'm black so people think I'm a thug'. If you look like a preppy college student, that's what people will think you are.
I read through your posts after I posted, and what I found is you reiterating yourself. Semantics, my friend, will not get you anywhere.
This is off topic anyway. I answered your original question. If you want to turn this into a battle of words we can do that in PMs.
