Alternatively, you can do this as well

struct TShirt

public:

    enum Gender

       TSHIRT_GENDER_MALE,
       TSHIRT_GENDER_FEMALE,
       TSHIRT_GENDER_NUETRAL
    };

    TShirt();
    TShirt(const TShirtGender gender = TSHIRT_GENDER_UNKNOWN);
    TShirt(const TShirt & rhs);
    ~TShirt();

    TShirt & operator = (const TShirt & rhs);

    unsigned long m_id; // Unique ID
    TShirtGender m_gender;
};

Since get and set aren't really going to do anything special and the
enum is only going to be used with the class.

// Key - TShirt ID
// Value - Count in stock
std::map<unsigned long, unsigned long> inventory;

I don't think count was really past of a TShirt...it can be represented
in an inventory outside of the class, but one cannot tell what the
original struct was being used for with only "info" to go on.
