I think the author of this article needs to sit back, relax.. maybe go for a ride. It's a TV show... things on TV shows are not real. SOA is just an example of real life jobs (or in this case, club) being portrayed inaccurately on drama shows.

People who work for CSI units in real life know that the CSI show is a hot steaming load of fiction. Same with Law and Order, NYPD Blue, Reno 911... etc, etc, etc... None of it is accurate and it's all written for ENTERTAINMENT value.

My job is often portrayed in movies and tv and it's never true to life... and it's so obvious to me that the writers arent after accuracy, they're after ratings! But even though they get things wrong, I still enjoy their stories without being offended by it. Maybe the author of this article should just relax and take it for what it really is... a fictional drama designed to entertain.. not educate.

Cool

People always forget that its fiction... figment of someones imagination. Yes it does give mcs a bad rap, but it should be watched as entertainment. Why do people read fiction novels?
Its to get your mind off the realms of reality. Give you an hour break a week from life.
If someone can't tell the difference btw real life and a fiction tv show.. they got issues. As for merchandise. Yes I own a shirt. Got it as a christmas gift from family. Do I wear it often? Nope. Hangs in my closet and will become part of a quilt in 10 years when its droopy from hanging in there so damn long with all my other harley shirts. Thats the plan at least.

Like stated above--it is fiction meant to entertain. Just barely enough truth to keep from being ridiculous.

You really think you can say that and just leave it there?? Prove it

And what's up with SOA not being real ? I thought everything on T.V. was real

So that means Pamela Anderson's eye catcher's aren't real either ????

Don't believe it for a second !!

I always thought SOA stood for...Seamstresses of America. It's not a union?
