HATER: Kurtis Sounds like a Cry Baby!

Here is a letter He recently received from a new fan, note this is not an accepted member of the ArmHe. You can find King He's comments back to Kurtis in Red.

Dear "He", He, King, Sir, Boss, Master, etc. all are acceptable.

My name is Kurtis, student and admirer of fashion. aka you know nothing. I found your website when you advertised yourself in The Talk interview on Scott Schuman. advertised? its called brillant commenting Browsing your site for up to three pages, I see image after image of you critiquing womenswear. An ambitious theme to take on, and perhaps I am speaking from a slanted lens, most definitely but I must advocate that your blog is perpetuating the wrong culture. Blah blah blah get to the point kurtis

You, yourself, admitted in your title that "[you] [come] here with no formal training in the matter" and that somehow qualifies you still. But this isn't what concerns me Then why are you retelling He what He already knows?. What concerns me is you propagating the male gaze (something of which I hope you will research).  Kings don't research Women do not dress for you. bulsh*t Women, as it stands, are the authors of their own image. says who? By that statement I mean that we, as men, do not have the proper insight maybe you don't, or authority, to preside over them and dictate what they should and should not be wearing. Wanna Bet? The streets are not Cosmo magazine (what are you 16 yrs old reading cosmo?), they are not written by men to mold women in their ideals have you read a cosmo? its all about ways to "please your man" Fashion is about taste, yes, but it is a taste that is informed by years of experience and experimentation (of which, again, you have admitted to none). So a chick can't be fashionable without years of experience, He knows otherwise.

I challenge you to be courageous enough to understand the greater implications of your blog you gonna cry dude? and at the very least attempt to educate yourself in some history of fashion. I do not expect a reply see red text, nor will I revisit your website yes you will and hope that you've made a change for the better no changes necessary. I do hope, however, that you will take what I say into consideration. nope

Sincerely,
Kurtis Chow

Boy Kurtis do you have too much time on your hands. Cannot even remember the last time He wrote anything of that length. You have completely wasted He's time and that of the ArmHe with your babble. You are a student of fashion, kurtis, so get a notepad because schools in session. The pages of Fashion by He are your new teacher, take notes, comment, and read up son, because you got a lot to learn. He is the King of Fashion, so anything you think you are gonna or need to learn, will be taught right here.
