abra 40,910 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 tbf catholics aren't crying cultural appropriation, and they shouldn't be. I say let people take inspiration from religion for their clothing, it's a complete non-issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honeystan 10,291 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Ariana's dress is beautiful, but I hate the hairbow. I would be more understanding of people being upset if they were wrapped in pages of the bible or Quran or something, but they're wearing illustrations/paintings/interpretations of stories/allegories. It looks like more a reinterpretation of the art rather than the religion imo. But that's just my O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OUO 3,660 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Catholicism did spread around through imagery and the pope(s) loosened up many rules to make people convert so this is a all a bit ironic but i'm not a catholic so it's not my place to judge the situation or anyone if they're actually offended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tide 14,243 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 saying that it's okay bc the vatican donated pieces is like saying it's okay for non hindus girls to wear bindis if bc mainland hindus dont care and even encourage it. personally, i dont care, i think that art and religion are in a constant symbiotic relationship and one should be allowed to utilize the other. but considering the backlash that others have gotten for wearing or imitating religious garb (instead of a bindi we have priestly garb) or iconography (instead of kali we have dominions and jesus) of other religions, and the whole "you can't dictate offense" argument that often prefaces these situations, i do find this whole situation ironic. people who would typically think cultural appropriation is rubbish are offended and people who typically don't question the metrics of cultural appropriation are calling the offense fake or unwarranted.

Iceprince 2,268 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 You are trying to create an issue out off non issue. And at the same time generalize and mock people. Im sure if we spend 1 extra minute for digging in twitter, we can find people who are offended by other people's breathing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silicon soul 19,457 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I have no idea what you're referring to but like I've been saying the sjw bs of cultural appropriation is getting out of hand. Everyone is offended by everything these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
respectmyauthori-tah 1,450 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Muslims cause a severe ruckus when their things get used by non-Muslims, Jews cause a severe ruckus too when this things get used by non-Jews. There are celebrities who do not dare to do mockery with islam neither with Judaism. There are many celebrities like Madonna who have played and did mockery of every religion out there. Catholicism is practically one of the most accepted religions to make fun of and doing mockery out of it all the time The thing is that disrespecting Catholicism is seen as cool, edgy and liberal while do the same disrespect to Muslims and Jews is not as seen the same ways It's worth to mention that playing around with things from African religions will make anybody be considered a racist Unless Black catholics complain nobody will take this seriously, cultural appropriaton only can be cause of revolt for Black people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

金彩媛 1,795 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 none of the dresses were offensive in any way, they just took catholic/christian imagery and turned it into artsy outfits they didn't in any way disrespect the religion I do agree that this wouldn't have been allowed had the theme been any other religion or belief. christianity is an extremely easy target.
