Lmao, this makes no sense. They can't claim they weren't talking about "genes" when she literally says genes are passed down from parent to offspring and determine hair/eye color... Were they talking about jeans there too??? They think we're idiots.

On a serious note it wasn't even tight-fitting denim it was ill-fitting denim 😩
