This is the main reason for my general annoyance with lack of size regulation in the fashion industry…

men’s pants are labeled by waist and inseam measurement. women’s pants are labeled by voodoo. even though i do not buy women’s pants, i can recognize this as objectively dumb.

THE NOTES ON THIS

because i can’t stress this enough. this is why i don’t let the numbers get to me. as jumpingjacktrash so eloquently said “women’s pants are labeled by voodoo.” 

BUT THISTHISTHISTHISTHIS

so when boys make fun of girls taking forever to shop and trying everything on

WE FUCKING HAVE TO OR NOTHING WILL FIT

HOW THE FUCK COULD WE POSSIBLY SHOP WITHOUT TRYING EVERYTHING ON, NUMBERS DO NOT OPERATE NORMALLY IN THE WOMENS SECTION OF THE STORE

This is blows my mind and is so strange to me.

Like, men’s pants are sized by inches. Inches do not change at each store. An inch is an inch no matter where you go. However, women’s pants aren’t sized that way so they’re NEVER the same. I *usually* wear a size 20. However, I have some size 20 jeans I can barley pull up over my knees and some that are ‘the same size’ that fall to my ankles if I don’t hold them up all day! AND THEY’RE FROM THE SAME FREAKING STORE.
