The problem is women have defined hips that men don't usually have, so a 32" men's jean doesn't adjust for a 40" hip.
Yeah I posted this above but it's also just a difference in how men/women traditionally have worn their pants. Men wear theirs down around the hips, not at the actual waist. So I kept measuring and buying pants that were too big because I was measuring at my stomach. All my pants ended up being 2-3 inches too long.
Hmm, okay. At least the women i know who have tried mens jeans have always had to go with the smallest they could find to keep them from being to large
Exactly. If we wear men's jeans that fit our hips properly = the waist size is huge.
Good to know, thanks
