I think part of t..."Nope" - fully agree.<br /><br />I think part of the problem that it's hard to mass-produce something that really ought to be tailored for each person. I mean, no two of us are the same size/shape, we're prone to changing shape, and we wear our pants fairly fitted. Men, I think, are more uniformly shaped (not entirely, but more than we are, I think), don't change shape as often, and wear their pants looser so they don't have to fit as well. Plus, they are less angsty about their size, so manufacturers can be straightforward about it.<br /><br />This may be an argument in favor of skirts, or making your own clothes -- in one way, those pioneer women had it easy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09517073049212265685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5513369980286068005.post-1165726757953390442013-11-26T13:01:53.311-08:002013-11-26T13:01:53.311-08:00I love the flow chart.

But you would think manufacturers would be able to fit women's bodies by now. Nope.

I've actually...That flow chart is SO accurate!<br /><br />I've actually had the best luck with jean shopping lately at the thrift store! Maybe it's because I live in an area where rich people donate their unused, with tag, name brand nice jeans, but most of my jeans are from the thrift store. Crazy. And cheap.Lieslhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568652187821916186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5513369980286068005.post-60384811246063147002013-11-23T15:29:52.397-08:002013-11-23T15:29:52.397-08:00Haha, thanks, Laura.
