Love it. To me it seems to run small as medium in these types of shirts is usually big on me. With this one I felt like could have even gone up another size, which I may order a second one anyway. It's cute. I am a baker and wore it at a vendor event.

I wear it all the time! It looks good and has such a good fit on me, not so big or tight. Just right and I’m thankful! Good for the fall and winter days ahead.

'A Metaphor For AIds' is based on 'AIDS and Its Metaphors' a 1989 work of critical theory by Susan Sontag. In this companion book to her Illness as Metaphor (1978), Sontag extends her arguments about the metaphors attributed to cancer to the AIDS crisis. Sontag explores how attitudes to disease are formed in society, and attempts to deconstruct them.
'Illness as Metaphor' was a response to Sontag’s experiences as a cancer patient, as she noticed that the cultural myths surrounding cancer negatively impacted her as a patient. She finds that, a decade later, cancer is no longer swathed in secrecy and shame, but has been replaced by AIDS as the disease most demonized by society. She finds that the metaphors that we associate with disease contribute not only to stigmatizing the disease, but also stigmatizing those who are ill. She believes that the distractions of metaphors and myths ultimately cause more fatalities from this disease.
