I was sitting at a table with my coworkers and most of them were women. One gal was going on and on how how clothes don't fit her the right way.

I wanted to say............LOSE SOME WEIGHT!

That's why they don't fit. You're not the right size for the clothes that you're trying to fit into.

I didn't say it but i wanted too. Those are the same girls that have the nastiest attitudes and think they are "all that". They try to squeeeze into clothes they can't fit and of course, they blame it on the clothes.

Well there are usually 2 reasons that people say this:
1. they don't want to admit that they need to go up a size
2. the brand's fit model has a completely different body shape than the woman does

I'm sorry that you were rejected by a fat woman and are now bitter towards them.

Maybe a hug will do you some good

Why? Have you ever shopped for a female? You can be the smallest size there is and run into things that don't fit right.

Submit her to "what not to wear"

You can be solidly in the size chart and stuff fits terrible. Our sizing scheme is screwed up.


I am on my phone, please forgive the typos.

OP: The women you're referring to might have this problem because they are shopping in the Juniors Department (thinking they can because they are still "youngish" late 20s to mid 30s, maybe?) instead of the Misses Department. The apparel in these two are defintely cut and styled differently from each other.
