GentleMen – [Let’s] Be Both Hooded Sweatshirt with Men’s & Women’s Versions

Violence against women is not a “women’s issue,” it is a men’s issue. But how do you encourage positive behavior rather than simply raging against the horrific actions of some men?

This hoodie, inspired by our popular “ManKind – Let’s be both” T-shirt, invites men to be true gentlemen, with an accent on the gentle. (If you can’t tell on your screen, the words “Gentle” and “Men” are slightly different shades, to help reinforce the message.)

A Gentleman is:

1) A man of gentle or noble birth or superior social position.

2) A well-mannered and considerate man with high standards of proper behavior.

Since we are all created noble, this shirt is really a call to each man’s higher inner nature.

I’ve created two versions of the design.

For men, the phrase “Let’s be both,” invites other men to rise to their better nature.

For women, the shorter “are both.” reminds the men they meet that women prefer men who have “high standards of proper behavior.”

The women’s version comes in Antique Cherry Red, Antique Sapphire, Heliconia and Purple.

NOTE: The women’s version is the same unisex shirt as the men’s. Only the colors and phrase are different.

The men’s version comes in all of the other colors, though, of course men can wear either version.

Please make your color choice accordingly.
