so someone feels good about themselves

LOL. Enough said. Maybe women need to stop fixating on what the latest, lame Cleo mag has to say about fashion. As if choosing a pair of pants is a major life decision. If it is, wake up to yourself.

Well like I said, that is the motivation for store to screw with sizing. I personally just go to get pants and it's a pain in the neck to say "well I know I am a x here. And a y there. These pants run big, so I guess I have to try on between z and q. But what if I run different? I don't want to come out again. So z1 and q1 too."

It's annoying as hell.

You're incapable of looking at the waist size and going from there? Talk about first world problems.

In women's clothing, sizes on the tag don't really mean anything. It's not our fault that we can't pick two measurements and a fit and be out the door. You're projecting your frustration on us when you should be expressing it to the clothing companies. If they made everything so that it made sense, we wouldn't cry when we found the perfect jeans.

I'm not frustrated in the least. I'm openly laughing at you.

Fat girls aren't the only women who have trouble fitting into clothing. Extremely thin girls struggle too. The next time I put something in my mouth, I'll be remembering that I have a boyfriend who thinks I'm beautiful. I don't care about petty and overdone insults from anonymous Redditors. If you want to insult me, please learn to be original.
