This seems to be blown out of all proportion and I feel sorry for H&M, quite common for children to be called cheeky monkey etc in Europe.. no offence intended

I've called my children "little monkeys" from the time they were infants. When I see this shirt, that's what I think of. Nothing more, nothing less. Just a cute phrase that lots of parents use. Insecurity, low self-esteem, or playing the race card would be reason for boycott. SMH
-
You think that the phrase is just a cute term to call your children but you ignore that others may view it as a historically vile term used to suggest that people were less than human.

In India, calling a kid a monkey (bandar/ korangu/ banore) is an endearing term referring to his mischievousness. Hope this penchant for politically correct speech stops somewhere
-
The problem is in North America, this is a horrific racial slur. Imagine clothing being sold in H&M stores in North America with a slogan degrading Indian people?
-
It is also a very well known slur and the creative decision makers who sit in a board room approving these designs are perpetrating and promoting racial injustice which is why we need groups like black lives matter
-
These type of degrading injustices normalize bigotry, racism and hatred and moving forward we don’t need H&M or Pepsi or any other companies apologies we need their employees to act with humanity and integrity first and until then we need to act with our wallets.
-
Do you know what’s more common calling your child a monkey, obviously no racism was intended so there is nothing to be concerned about. Why are you trying to make things racist
-
These people have NO LIFE. And frankly, I feel as if they have this paranoia that everyone and everything is racist because they themselves are... racist. They’re perpetual victims

Agreed
