Is it bad that I agree with this?

Getting back to the original topic, or somewhere near it anyway....

It's obvious we all have different attitudes about what influences us and to what extent, and there are some who are fortunate enough to have grown up with a healthy attitude. Skinny models don't bother me one way or the other, but if the government of Spain wants to put the kabosh to the silly extremes this whole waif thing has gotten to then that's their business. I don't know enough about Spain's system of government to know if this is legit to do or not, but considering our government's ongoing obsession with applying their idea of what's right and wrong in nearly aspect of our lives, who are we to bitch?

I do try to moderate what my kid is exposed to, but I don't want to be as censor. She has to live in the real world and she has to learn what it's about. All I want is some goddamned pants that fit her right at this point.

Huzzah! This is all anyone wants! Pants That Fit!

I can't wait until I'm a gazillionaire and have my own tailor. That'll kick ass.

Here's my secret to being able to buy pants that fit:

I'm a man.

Now you know the secret. Please use it only for the forces of good.

Oh pshah, I can never find pants that fit. Man's got nothing to do with it.






(doubt that the man requirement is present, and you obviously haven't ever even glanced at my pants.)

Oh, I'm sure there are men who find getting clothes to fit difficult, but it seems to pretty much be a universal among women that stores don't sell any pants that fit them well.

This is regardless of body type. Apparently the pants in the stores aren't designed for any woman found on earth.

And odds are that if men had the same standards of fit that most women seem to have then we'd probably find it pretty darn difficult as well. My anecdotal experience is that most men simply don't care much. If it covers the things that need covering, reaches most of the way to the floor, and can be snapped/zipped/buttoned without much in the way of effort then it is an adequate fit.

There have been many, many times that I was shopping that I wished I was a man. I used to buy guy's jeans. Whenever I buy clothes for my younger brother, I realize I'm buying things that I would wear if I were a guy.

If I got a sex change, would that be for the forces of good?

I highly doubt that GD would think so.
