No, it's not a 'hoodie', it's a sweatshirt, amirite?

I always thought they were two different things. I thought it was only called a regular sweatshirt when it didn't have a hood, and vice versa.

I think that they're supposed to be the same thing. I never hear anyone say it in real life, but I read it in a post and it irked me.

Hoodys or hoodies are sweatshirts with hoods. It's not bloody rocket science. They're even labeled that way in stores- so you can protest all you want, but I don't think it's going to change.

I have never seen a "hoodie" section in a store. Nor have I seen a sweatshirt without a hood. Saying a "hooded sweatshirt" would be redundant.

I've seen plenty of sweatshirts without hoods. And saying "hooded sweatshirt" ISN'T redundant, because not all sweatshirts have hoods. There's this new invention called "google." Use it.

ok to be fair: 'round here "hoodie" has a feminine ring to it so i call mine sweatshirts [hooded sweatshirts if i feel like being specific] and leave hoodies to the girls. however, i own non-hooded sweatshirts, so they definitel exist too.

This is how I label them; a hoodie has a zipper, hooded sweater shirt just has a hood, sweatshirts have neither.

That's exactly how I label them.

Hood = Hoodie; Zipper = Jacket; No Hood = Sweater. That's just what I think though :)
