I don't get this bs response. Too often have I seen my female friends buy terrible clothing. Yes women's clothing fucking sucks, but some women manage to find even worse articles than the regular flimsy thin fabric that still manages to feel tight even when it is too big for you. Extra points for poor insulation and confusing parts. They enable that impractical pocketless shit.

I found clothes that better accomodate my wide ass in the men's section, then I ever have in the woman's section. I found the best swimming top, in the sports bra section as the swimming gear was just the same flimsy design. Who in their right minds would buy a top marketed for surfing, when the thing is only held together by a weak elastic rope made from the same fabric? You fall off once and your top disappears from existance.

I found that clothing in the woman's section is uncomfortable, even when it's too big for me. At least in the men's, I find clothes that are comfortable, even if it looks bad on me. I'm done with looking good.

At least in the case of the women I’ve lived with: they just buy cheap shit. Mostly shein.

The market for “cheap, dogshit clothing that disintegrates in a few months and doesn’t have basic amenities like pockets” is much larger with women, that’s why the entire fast fashion industry exists.

For real. Cheap shit is cheap shit. And I agree women enable that shit. Though I found that clothes in the same price range, generally have better quality in the men's. Thicker fabric, insulation, less see through, pockets, etc.
