I spend most of my time and money in the men's department because I can't find slacks to fit my waist and height...and have pockets that don't function. Women's clothes don't fit properly, are made poorly and are overpriced. Women's shoes will often break an ankle, fall apart after one use and/or are disfunctional in the real world. Anyone have the same experience?

The "one size fits all" trend cuts costs for manufacturers and makes it your problem to fit into your clothes, not theirs to fit you. As for quality, men's clothes are expected to be worn until they fall apart, but women are supposed to buy new stuff long before their old gear is anywhere near worn out. Hence the poorer materials - keep 'em spending.

That question has befuddled me for ages. I have no idea what size I really am since, in every store I go to, I'm a different size in each! And they never really fit properly. It'll fit in the waist, but be too large in the thigh. It'll fit in the thigh, but be too large in the waist. And don't get me started on dresses and tops! It'll fit around the boobs, but not in the waist, and it'll fit in the waist, but not in the boobs! Even though the average woman is a size 12, 14, or 16 (and studies have proven this) everyone still wants to think we all should be a size 2. God forbid if you're body is not built this way. And they wonder why thousands of young girls and women (yes, even women in their 40s and 50s) have eating disorders. It's all a big conspiricy in my book.

they are men or stupid women. i wish women's clothing was made like men's clothing, they would fit us better. as for the shoes, i hate heels and i refuse to wear them. i wear flats or tennis shoes.
