Can nail polish remover bleach your clothes?

i tried to put black permanent marker on my boyfriends black hoodie and now i want to take it off. i heard nail polish remover would get rid of it, but could that risk bleaching his hoodie?Can nail polish remover bleach your clothes?
Most nail polish remover is made with acetone (which is not an acid, but is a very good solvent for markers). Acetone will bleach the fabric, but additionally if the hoodie is made with any man-made fibres it may also eat through the fabric!

uh yes, it's a strong acid which i'm sure will mess up the black color, and if the marker's black, why does it matter?
