When did the rosary become a fashion statement for young black males? Well shoot just for anyone. So I was looking at my older brother Tennie's facebook status and it made me want to write this blog.  Currently he has seen dudes walking about campus at N.C. A&T with the rosary around their necks. So what people deciding to be Catholic all of a sudden. No I don't think so. They are just wearing them as an accessory to their already "fashionable" outfits. The dudes who walk around with with skinny jeans, little plaid shirts, hats, and non prescription bifocals. WTH... I just dont get it. They talk about how they be having sex with them on and smoking weed with them on. Like it's a good thing to do. I feel this is SO disrespectful to Catholics, especially with me being one. I was raised knowing what each bead meant and to cherish the rosary, to use it when praying and nothing else.  It has been brought back into the fashion world, which is not of my likings. It was brought into fashion by Madonna in the early 1980s and people today are starting to wear and sell them again in todays era for a fashion statement. UHHH NOOO STOP DOING THIS!. When I was searching for pictures to show you guys I found pictures of D&G's rosary necklace. OMG... and it was probably selling for around $500 dollars.  I wanna know how all you guys feel about this because as you can see I am a little upset about the things young black males are doing when they don't know what the beads even mean. SMH.
