As a curvy tall girl who's also a 2, I can confirm that there aren't a whole lot of choices out there for me either. If I were a short stick, I'd be fine. I actually find more clothes in the larger sizes in the boys' department, of all places. I used to shop juniors, which has more long jeans than anywhere other than mens, but now it's all short short stuff. What's "normal" size anymore anyway? It's ridiculous.
Side note, when I was pregnant, they'd laugh me out of maternity and tell me I was just fat and who was I trying to fool? Maybe they should make sales people work on commission again, I bet that'd make them be polite, whether they want to be or not.

Sigh...I hate clothes shopping. I'm short and just a wee bit bigger than normal... Would be simpler if we could abolish clothes...hm, now that's an interesting thought

Ha! I said in an earlier comment that we should all just wear pajamas all the time and the more I think about it, the better I like the idea. Full on jammy party, whaddaya say?

Demons and a cousin with a smart mouth. Never leave home without 'em when you have to find a pair of pants. Well, that and going to a store where people who are under a size twelve can't find anything but jewelry to make them happy. Lane Bryant, baby. I bought my first pair of skinny jeans from them.

It's not easy having curves, especially these days, but I think we'll stick through it and come out all right in the end. Stupid demons can shove it.

I always did think it's kind of unfair that all of the new trendy clothing designs seem to be targeted towards slimmer people while larger sizes have more basic designs and simpler colors.

FOR REAL. Big chicks get no love. And, not to get too personal, but just try finding a cool and sexy bra when you have enormous breasts! NOT GONNA HAPPEN. I see adorable bras with little owls all over them in the B cup and C cups, I search for The Horrific Double D and all I can see are gigantic lacy Grandma girdles. Awful.
Sorry. Rant over.

It's alright. I actually appreciate getting your feedback on my comment and it's nice to know that you care about this kind of stuff too. I saw a B0atman hoodie that looked pretty neat a few months ago with the bat ears and the eyeholes and everything, but alas it only came in medium and small.

I'm always kind of creeped out by the weird ghettoization of women's body types at clothing stores. Short girls get their own store (or corner of the store), plus sizes get their own store (or corner of the store). Guys' clothes? Just put it all on the same damn rack. We'll figure it out.

elephantblue In reply to ElectricGecko [2011-11-10 09:25:39 +0000 UTC]
Well, it's tough because in general, men look pretty good in very generic things. Jeans and a shirt works on so many levels for so many body types, and it always will, and guys are, by and large, okay with that. Women, on the other hand, are obsessed with clothes, with trends, with new things, changing styles, blahblah, and I can't keep track of it, I only know what I like (which apparently isn't in stores anymore, so does that mean I'm not hip anymore?) but women's bodies are all so completely different that it's tough to make something that fits everyone. I think we should just all wear pajamas all the time. Seriously. We'd be soooo much happier in all respects.

Yeah, I can tell what kind of clothing my wife will wear and what she won't. Sometimes there's a bunch of stuff in the mall that she would like, and other times there's absolutely nothing ... anywhere. Like really, do all the stores need to simultaneously carry the same type of stuff, and simultaneously STOP carrying the other type? Weeeeeeirrrrrdd.

I guess it has to do with the seasons, which sucks for me because I live in Hawaii, you'd think we'd be immune to that sort of thing, but no, now all the cool summer clothes have been replaced by sweaters and blouses in this really weird square cut that looks awkward on all body types, so I have no idea why it's supposed to be high fashion right now. Oh well.

Oh, and what is "normal", pray tell? The 2% of the population that can fit in sizes under 10? Y'know what? All the "normal" skinny people will be the first to go when things start to go badly. BIG IS BEAUTIFUL.

I can usually love my curves, but clothes shopping makes me wish I weighed maybe 28 pounds! But yes, big is beautiful, and I love the slender girls as well, because everyone who loves themselves exactly as they are is gorgeous. Tactless sales clerks, however, are not gorgeous. Rah.

If anyone ever said that to me, the "normal" comment, I'd probably be inclined to slug them.
(Everyone keeps telling me I'm skinny, but I honestly forget because my little sister looks kind of like that clerk up there only shorter and thinner and I feel like a giant next to her. Apparently I'm still under average. Psh I think EVERYONE is beautiful and size ain't got nothing to do with it. People can be so mean about something so trivial - okay rant over. Sorry.)

Oh yes. The slugging thing. I'm with ya, lass.
You know, all body types are lovely as long as the person inside is lovely. I'd kill to be under average, but I know plenty of girls who look at my totally annoying double D boobs and say the same thing, so hey. We all got to just get right with ourselves.

So true and so wise. Personality is key... Which sometimes leads me to think I'm really in trouble (haha).
I've got this theory that everyone's body is perfect. And I mean everyone. I mean physically disabled, underdeveloped overdeveloped paralyzed missing fingers and limbs and scars everywhere EVERYONE. (All of those things suck dirty hose water, I agree, and I'm not saying be grateful for such because that is unfeeling to the extreme. Just hear me out.) All right. Look at your hand. (Now back to me, hahahahaha) Flex one finger. Now flex a separate finger. Do you know how amazing and miraculous that is? That is muscle and tendons and bones and nerves and skin and blood vessels ALL working together in perfect harmony and synchronization. And this doesn't just happen in one finger for two seconds - this happens throughout your ENTIRE body twenty-four seven, 365 days a year, for your entire life. It's like clockwork, only so much cooler and more effectively. You get sick? Your body immediately and unrelentingly does its best to heal. I know there are so many variations and exceptions (sickle cell disease, poor immune system, asthma the list goes on for days) but you know what? Even when dealing with such horrible things, the body is still so amazing! One bad thing doesn't make it shut down entirely - it still breathes and pumps blood and digests food and moves however you command it to (within reason). Every once in awhile I remember all that and it gives me this warm, excited feeling that I have such a sheerly awesome mechanism doing literally everything it can to ensure my survival and my happiness.
Soooooooo that was a long rave. Anyway, I hope you caught on to some of my enthusiasm and ignored any and all holes in the theory, because seriously, bodies are just so cool!
