Marion Roach Smith’s alternate sisterly reality, with Margaret Roach.
SOMETIMES I’M SIMPLY TOO PISSED OFF to keep it to myself. What always happens when this happens is I tell my sister first, and since these days I have so very many sisters to tell, I’ll tell you, too. This being-too-pissed-off-to-keep-quiet thing doesn’t happen often. But it happened today, and as of today my habits will change, and never again will I enter an H&M clothing store. Here’s why.

LITTLE SISTER, BIG SISTER: A digital moment, today.
First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.

My local craft store does the same thing to their old crafting supplies. It should be donated to a women’s shelter or inner city school.
Yes, Jim, they should. Maybe this is the beginning of a list of places that need to have a look at the country in which they live and change their ways. Thanks. And come back for more, please.
Thanks for this article. I’ve shared it with my daughter, she needs to know this too!
Huzzahs to Cynthia Magnus, the CUNY graduate student who called The New York Times to report the despicable habit of H&M. Huzzahs to Jim Dwyer for reporting it. Look what has happened as a result.
