Gap 2

I have always appreciated everything San Francisco based GAP (Gay And Proud) has done for the gay community, but they need to get it together with their clothing. In the past, I have worn GAP clothing to flamboyantly display pride in my lifestyle, but the quality in the clothing has taken a nosedive in recent years. Quite simply, the quality is extremely low compared to what it was in GAP's heyday, the 90's. It's hard to wear the Gay And Proud acronym with pride when the fabric is cheap, especially compared to what it once was. Come on GAP, show a little pride yourselves and give us something we can all be proud of. The gay community takes a lot of pride in your brand of clothing. Make us proud once again.

It's an urban legend that GAP is an acronym for Gay And Proud. As a GAP employee who happens to be in a relationship with a member of the same sex, I would love to be able to tell you that it really does mean that but it's just not true. The name is derived from the goal the Fisher's (The Gap founders) had of filling a gap in the market when they opened the first store. That being said, although I do correct the odd customer who passes comment on the acronym (a negative comment more often than not), I am quick to inform people that we are happy to be seen as such an open minded company.
