ive always called "wife beaters" guinea t's (maybe it's being 1/2 guinea, or i never heard em called anything else when i was younger) anyway...i was in this store and heard this guy ask where the guinea t's were and the man helping him got ALL upset. but the man buyin them was like "buddy dont worry im italian!" it was funny but i never really realized someone would get upset over that.

i think that "wife beater" is more offensive anyway. what's the politically correct word for it then?

i call it a wife beater and wear them with pride! I beat up that imaginary wife of mine eveyr chance i get! But the real name for them is a "A-Shirt" sorta like a "T-Shirt". I am so smart :)

you have to pretend you have a wife because you cant get one...

u know, all my life i've thought of them as 'ginny tees'. i never realized that it was 'guinea'. *jaw aghast* so if i'm looking for those kinda shirts, what do i call them? (i'm feeling real stoopid now)

raerae raeraeFounder

that would be all i ever dreamed of....and more

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

no, tank tops are different and sleevless shirts are merely shirts sans the sleeves

Yeah, it's weird, my dad told me that Italians don't mind if other Italians use the term Guinea, kind of like how black use the "n" word with each other, but get insulted when others use it. My dad told me a funny story in relation to my mother's side of the family... my Nana (my mother's mother)seemed to deny she was Italian, but rather American Indian. So my dad went to visit my great grandparents (Nana's parents) in NY (back around '63 I guess). So he meets them and of course they wre this old Italian couple from Italy and my dad starts speaking Italian to them (he was in the Air Force in the '50's and was stationed in Italy so he knows Italian). So my grat grandmother says to Nana "Eh... sucha nice-a boy" which got Nana going. So dad says to my mother, in front of Nana, "Joy, I don't know how you're motehr is American Indian when her parents are a couple of Guineas" That REALLY put my dad in good with Nana...
