Well, you have to admit that guys get more leway on what they can and cannot be. I mean, if you go to buy pants for a guy, all the pant sizes are going to be there in the mens. But if you are a woman, if you are so small, then you're pettite, then some are in the normal section. But if you are a 12 or over, you are "plus" size. So there's more motivation for both guys and girls to know girls pant sizes. I only said 30 because I swear my Dad's a 33 and he's older with a little gut so I figured 30 would be normal....but appearantly not, lol.

On girls a 30 is a size 10, etc. Plus you have to remember that our pants sit on our hips, not our waste.

I don't get it... hips? pics perhaps would clear this up.

It seems to have something to do with height as well, sometimes. I mean, my friend and I have the same pair of pants from AE. Mine are a size two and hers are a ten. She's not fat at all, she's just 5'9, while I'm only 5'3. And, they make different lengths so ... I don't know?

I'm not to sure about pant sizes, myself. All I know is I hate buying pants because I never like how they look. :freak:

Hey that's for sure. But there's a four inch difference in me and my cousin and she's the same size as I am.

Let's just protest pants and go naked, eh?

I generally have to get a larger size in pants that fit well because my legs are so long that occasionally it looks like I'm preparing for a flood.

But I don't think its so much what guys think that annoys me, its the friggin stores. I hate the fact that 9/10 clothing stores in the mall are for skinny boobless girls. I'm tall, and that means most pants and such don't fit. I have a chest, that means most shirts don't fit. It's really frustrating. And what Cass said too, the way that sizes are in different sections is also pointless labeling.

I think the whole waist size vs. length depends on the store and the make and such.

I do NOT get sizes. I seemed to wear a 14 when I was like 11, and now I just have no idea. The sizing system is different in every store, I swear. They need to come up with one universal system, like shoes, ya know?

In shoes I go from an 11-8. They are definately not universal! :lol:

Smartest thing I've heard all day. Clothes are annoying.

[23:17] <xjsb125> nekkid!
[23:17] <George> Nekid? *takes clothes off* I'm nekid now!
[23:17] <Trig> I've been nekkid. What are you waiting on?

A million dollar body is worthless with a ten cent mind. Looks are a big part of initial attraction I guess, but the person's personality is (and should be) what hooks you.

I just like the guts and the poop with milk and cookies on the side

I dont get sizes either! I go into one store and i'm a 6, and then into another store and im a 12! I wish it was universal, i can never have trouses bought for me because each store has its own weirdo way.

Another thing i hate is what Sarah said. I'm tall, and all the trousers are too short. I dont have the same issue with tops though :lol:

...no .. i deal with pants sizes everyday fool! and i think a 32 for a guy is normal. that seems to be an avg size. i know the smallest guys size we carry is a 30.

ALSO: I'd like to say that I've never ever been in a serious relationship with someone because i thought they were "cute". I did the shallow thing, and beliiiieve me, what goes on in the mind, is 40000000 times better.

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 11/11/2004, 11:30 pm

Girls, you always just tell your friends your pant size is your smallest size. I know my friends snoop in my closet though. And our other friends, it bugs the hell out of me!

I think I should just make my own, that way I'd never know what size it is!

xoNoDoubt69 · Post by **xoNoDoubt69** » 11/11/2004, 11:32 pm

my friend got me these pants one year for my birthday from abercrombie and they were a whole two sizes less than i usually take and they fit just like the rest. i wish i had money to buy pants there just so i could say i take that size haha
