Viral Post Perfectly Captures the Frustrating Truth About Women’s Clothing
Guys don’t like buying clothing, but considering how much easier it is for us to buy clothes, you’d think we’d be more enthusiastic about it. Seriously fellas, if you think buying men’s clothing is a chore, buying women’s clothing is a whole different ballgame.
You see, women’s clothing sizes can vary wildly from brand to another. There’s no “large, medium, small,” just a bunch of numbers that mean nothing. Seriously, what might be a 12 in one brand could be a 6 in another brand and a 16 in another. It’s like the wild west out there.
A Twitter user named Chloe recently posted a picture that very neatly expressed her annoyance with this unfortunate phenomenon.
Incase you’ve ever wondered why women get so frustrated with our clothing sizes – every pair of jeans pictured, is a size 12 pic.twitter.com/V88JAPQZTI

As you can see, that’s a whole bunch of jeans that look a lot different from each other but are all size 12.
Chloe continued…
And you know what’s even funnier, the very bottom pair fit me perfectly, the 2nd pair from the top, are too small, how does that even make sense when the top pair is bigger????
— c (@chloemmx) March 8, 2019
In another response, Chloe said, “No wonder women feel so insecure. I’ve had size 10 dresses, fit fine, then I’ll try on size 14 jeans that won’t even go past my hips, it’s not right”
Other Twitter users agreed with Chloe and offered their own thoughts.
I have a similar problem, and it’s to do with the rise – the height from the crotch to the waistband.
Higher waisted jeans fit me fine, lower rise jeans often cut across my stomach. Hence why an apparently smaller waisted pair fits you (and why I want to sew my own jeans!)

Anyway, back to the original tweet – I know exactly what you mean, I have clothes in my wardrobe ranging from a size 8 to a 16 – all of which fit me. Cannot figure out what size I am. I daren’t buy any clothes without trying it on – so no internet shopping for me

This is so me! Sizes 8-14 and all of them fit me

the other day I wore a pair of size 4 jeans with a size L jacket and a size XS top and it all fit

This is tragic, one pair is a size 4 and one pair is a size 10.. no difference at all pic.twitter.com/IXlI8LXrdG

These Jeans Are Designed to Absorb the Smell, So Get Fartin’
Are you ashamed of your gas problem? Do you find yourself blaming farts on friends, strangers, or dogs? Well, it’s time to leave that life behind.

Seriously, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. Apparently, healthy people fart about 20 times per day. Buuuuuut, let’s be honest here. You don’t want to be the one whose fart clears a room and ruins everyone’s day (especially yours), right?
That’s why you might want to invest in “Flatulence Jeans” produced by a company called Shreddies. Yes, you read that correctly. The company insists that these jeans (they have other products too, like underwear and pajamas) are “flatulence filtering” and that the worst smells you’re producing will be eliminated before you really upset your friends and family (or co-workers, or church-goers, or political constituents).

The jeans, and other products made by Shreddies, are lined with activated charcoal that absorbs odors and gases. Home air filters and purifiers use it on a regular basis, so you know it’s legit. What’s more, Shreddies says that their products last two to three years, so you’ll get good use out of them.

The Shreddies website says the following:
“To avoid flatulence escaping around the filter we recommend that you stand with your legs together and try to let your wind out slowly. When sitting, keep your knees together so that flatulence escapes through the carbon panel.”
The company also recommends you get a pair that fits like a second skin.
The jeans run about $130 plus shipping and are available for men and women. I think I know what you’re getting for Christmas this year!
