I have been online looking at clothing sites all night and it occured to me that Every store has a kids, Mens, Womens and Women's plus section. You never see a Mens Plus section. Whats up with that?

Because overweight men are "big and tall."

And old men are "distinguished".

Ours is called Big and Tall :mrgreen:

Prancer · by **Prancer** » August 19th, 2006, 5:25 am

yeah but Big and Tall in stores like Old Navy or JcPenney are right there with the other clothes. You never go in and have to look for the Giant sign that says "PLUS"

Yeah I like how in dept stores around here the women's plus sizes are on the second floor in a back corner where no one else would ever want to go.

uhmm, ok. let's be honest. "skinny" women do NOT want to wear something a fat girl may walk by her in. it's the female fashion/vanity thing.

that's why places that have both size ranges have not only different departments but also different styles for "regular" and "plus." it sucks, but it's true. old navy has sarted crossing over a bit, but it's still divided.

men don't care. if a man is wearing a button down and jeans to dinner and a 400lb guy walks buy in the same outfit, he won't cringe. he would probably say, "hey, buddy, nice shirt."

so, women get different sections because we are catty, vain beasts.

Okay, so big deal! Men get "Big & Tall" and can pee
standing up; but ladies, don't forget...catty, vain
beasts we may be, but WE have the multiple O!!!

Soujourner---You got there before me! That is exactly what I was thinking. Yes, it sucks, but we still have the power of the Multiple "O"

alpha femme · by **alpha femme** » August 19th, 2006, 11:50 am

uhmm. sure. some women have the multiple o.
30-40% of women never have one at all. ever. nada.

i hope those women at least look good in jeans.

Seriously? NEVER EVER???

Man I dont think I would give up my O for looking good in jeans. I'd rather stay this size then be a size 2 and be in that 30 - 40%
