this could get tricky

5/2/2008 3:37:27 PM

you know, this is just another example of how men objectify women and ruin society.

5/2/2008 3:37:38 PM

5/2/2008 3:37:43 PM

there are all kinds of sizes and it also depends on the country of origin and designer as well

5/2/2008 3:38:18 PM

Skinny 0-2
Medium skinny 3-4
Medium 5-8
Medium fat 9-12
Fat 12+

imo

5/2/2008 3:38:31 PM

I'm glad that most of the clothes I buy come in the size S, M, L, or XL.

5/2/2008 3:39:39 PM

either that or he's trying to buy cloths for a girl without calling her fat on accident.

5/2/2008 3:40:13 PM

im never good at this

i think it's cause i have a low self esteem when it comes to my weight

5/2/2008 3:40:30 PM

you and every other girl

5/2/2008 3:41:40 PM

Well I worked at J.Crew so it was:

XS 0-2
S 2-6
M 6-8
L 8-12
XL 12-14

This is approximate, but J.Crew is cut super small even though their fit model is a size 6 (a couture size 6 though which is like a 4)

5/2/2008 3:45:22 PM

I'm 5'7, skinny, and can wear a size 2-8 depending on the brand

So it really depends of the brand of clothes you get

5/2/2008 3:45:37 PM

^^size 6 (4) what height?

5/2/2008 3:46:15 PM

wat

5/2/2008 3:46:59 PM

well normal model height so I'm guessing like 5'10" or taller

5/2/2008 3:47:37 PM

^holy god

thats teeeeeny

5/2/2008 3:52:35 PM

teeeeeny weeeeenie

5/2/2008 3:58:05 PM

Yea I told you they are cut small!!!

Plus they are made for women with now ass n titties I look like a skrippa the way my tits fall out of their shirts!

5/2/2008 4:04:22 PM

"plus size" is size 14 and up, and a lot of guys would call a girl FAT if she's in a size 14. but a girl who is 5'9" and up isn't fat in a size 14.

but you're asking about a girl who is 5'5" so i'd say "curvy" is probably a size 8, and anything bigger than that you might label as "fat" even though that's probably not the case

if this is an internet girl, just ask for a picture for cryin out loud

5/2/2008 4:05:10 PM

Curvy...hahaha.

5/2/2008 4:06:16 PM

curvy is certainly a valid body description. a girl with hips and ass but not a really big belly. she's not skinny, but she's not fat.

black guys would call that kinda girl THICK

5/2/2008 4:07:07 PM

I am to set up a blind date w/ a girl and she was described by a number

So I wanted to know about what a number meant u'know

5/2/2008 4:07:12 PM

ok then, tell me what that number is, and i can help you out PM is fine. i'm a plus size girl, so i can probably give you a good idea

5/2/2008 4:08:24 PM

i don't see why people are calling 8's medium sized. Thats a fairly plus sized woman. I dated one girl who wore an 8, but some times a six ( i still to this day don't get how clothes are one size in one brand and then a different size in another). I picked up a pair of her jeans one time and slipped them on. I didn't even notice really until they didn't come all the way up on me. The waist could have easily fit me and still had some room. Thats when i realized how big an 8/6 really is.

a size 8 on a girl who is 5'5 is completely different than a size 8 on a girl who is 5'9.

5/2/2008 4:31:59 PM

fair point. She was only 5'3"

5/2/2008 4:33:12 PM

someone who is 5'3 is SKINNY in a size 2. someone who is 5'9 is SKINNY in a size 8.

someone who is 5'9 is CHUNKY in a size 16. but who cares, i'm still gonna look hot in my wedding dress

5/2/2008 4:34:27 PM

ooohhhhh snap. you go girl


my current girl is 5'6" and a size 2, sometimes a 4, but usually a 2. I'm pretty content with that. Especially given that she eats three meals a day.

5/2/2008 4:37:47 PM

yea man, i got cleavage comin' out the wah-zoo baby

5/2/2008 4:39:28 PM

An 8 on a 5'5" is not fat and definitely not "fairly plus sized". To me, "fairly plus sized" on a 5'5" would be 170 lbs or more. This doesn't even take into account differences in body shape.

There's a difference between having fat in the wrong places and having curves (but still having a small waist). A lot of times people take "curvy" and make it a euphemism for "fat," which I think is stupid. You can be curvy and still be skinny--just not in that same boyishly skinny way some girls are.

I agree with SweetTreats's ranges.

5/2/2008 4:40:08 PM

wow, you have some fucked up ideas of fat.

my ex was a 12/14, but i wouldn't call her fat. i mean, she was thick/chunky/whatever. and she was 5'4".

Thank you.

i agree with chembob but it's all in the eyes of the beerholder beholder. a guy who likes curvy women would say a size 12/14 is perfect. a guy who likes skinny women would say a size 12/14 is fat. and i'd say that guy who likes skinny women is an idiot

reading girls argue about what is and isn't fat is a great way to waste time.

Who hates the sizing for jeans EVEN MORE than they hate the sizing for dresses?

5/2/2008 4:47:28 PM

as my friend likes to say

"i like curvy. sometimes chubby comes along with curvy, but it doesn't have to."

5/2/2008 4:47:57 PM

i hate wearing clothes - period.

which is why i don't wear many clothes when i'm around the house.

word to the wise - call before visiting

5/2/2008 4:48:28 PM

^^hahah I love it!!

OMG JEANSSSSSSSSSSSSSS DRIVE ME NUTS!!!!

Especially designer jeans!!! And it sucks that I have become a jean snob because I now have headaches when I'm done trying on new pairs because of the crazy sizing!!!

are you serious? That may not be super fat but thats still fat for that height.

5/2/2008 4:52:24 PM

and who else hates the size inflation? i am by no means skinny - not even close - and i wear a 4/6 at ann taylor. ok, sometimes i need an 8 in tops to accommodate the boobage. but really.

5/2/2008 4:59:58 PM

It's just a number, toots.
