typical girl rant feel free to ignore

Aug 01, 2004 20:07


Ugh! I'm so sick of walking into stores to shop and not a thing in the whole womens section fitting me. I know I have 'football player' shoulders and I'm not quite as thin as the other females in America but common at least make a few t-shirts in a decent size! This just depresses me... I mean, I already know that I don't look like normal girls but ( Read more... )

know the feeling

my frustration is usually: "ok, so you made the rest of the shirt plus-sized, but you seemed to have forgotten the sleeves!"

my arms are big (ick) and sleeves are almost always tight on my arms and fit everywhere else

I have the opposite problem. my legs are bulky, so it's hard to find pants that fit me right, hence the reason I'm always in a skirt, LOL.

I have simular problems with jeans... they are usally too long in the inseam and too short in the legs... ick... I've found GAP long jeans work pretty well for me but I refused to pay more than 20 for a pair so I always have to catch them on sale...

You have to remember the Anorexic look is in... YOu are beautiful. Just because the stores in the mall that cater mostly to kids from 12-22ish (I know this fact because I asked in the stores about target customers...) have size 0-3 dresses and don't carry anything else even though most of the population of this country is overweight, in one stroke Ostracizing a great many people from the "in crowd" because "they don't look cool". BLAGH!!! Modern styles are useless... Ok.. I admit I do wear some, but they were on clearance sale... At Wal-Mart...

Abercrombie & Whatever and those other stores are doing what McDonalds, Disney and even my beloved Walmart are doing to the culture... they are creating a distinct monoculture across the country. they propagate only the fashions/ideas/trends that they want to, influencing their target audiences... almost every actress on the screen can fit into a size 0-3 dress (unless it is due to an enlarged front/top-end)... any coincidence? i think not... the curent idea of sexy is thin and wiry ( ... )
