Yeah, no worries. Everyone has different tastes, and that's cool. I tend to not like girly styles (pink and cutesy) but like girl cuts. I remember how excited I was when I saw a girls' cut Avengers shirt that was a strip from the comics -- at Penneys, no less! No pastels. No cutesy art style. Just straight out of the pages of the comic. It was like, okay, someone gets it, that girls can be feminine and still like superheroes without making them cutesy. That's what pisses me off about only offering men's cut shirts, because it's like the default assumption is geek stuff is only for guys or for girls who want to dress like guys, that femininity and superheroes or sci fi are mutually exclusive. If that look isn't your thing, more power to you.
