Sam YG says controversial 'rape' shirt at SM not part of 'Boys' Night Out' line | Showbiz | GMA News Online

(Updated 1:55 p.m.) Boys' Night Out" radio show host Sam Gogna aka Sam YG said that a controversial t-shirt at a department store chain was not part of his show's collection.

The disc jockey posted the clarification on Twitter after the t-shirt that said "It's Not Rape, It's A Snuggle With A Struggle" caused a firestorm online.

SM Group of Companies pulled out the shirt from its stores Tuesday and said in a statement that it found the message "unacceptable."

Writer and poet Karen Kunawicz posted the photo of the shirt, which had been shared more than 2,700 times as of 10:58 a.m. on Tuesday by outraged netizens.

Comments left on the post indicated that the shirt was part of the "Boys' Night Out" collection. Earlier this year, Sam and his co-hosts Slick Rick and Tony Toni started endorsing a t-shirt line from SM.

But on his Twitter account, Sam denied that the shirt was from the "Boys' Night Out" line.

It's not feminism. It's simply common sense. Making "rape" jokes is just as tasteless as laughing at ISIS beheadings. And for the exact same reason.

If you really think of this shirt as harmless, try giving this shirt to a rape victim & see what happens, or have your daughter wear this to Church on Sunday, or have your wife or girlfriend walk around in these in slum areas.
