Meh...

Women have been doing this with dress sizes for years now.

About time we had some equal opportunity.

I'll probably just avoid shopping at these places. I don't buy clothes to make myself feel good. I buy them for only three reasons:

  1. Protection from heat, cold, weed whackers, insect bites, etc.
  2. Modesty, because I don't want women attacking me for my gorgeous body . . . or getting arrested.
  3. Pockets. I may list it last, but it is really my main reason.

Manufacturers have. And it makes it difficult to shop as you have to try on everything. I HATE shopping.

Not only has the whole women's clothing size been changing over time, but I have been told for years that at any given time a size 10 at Target/Walmart/etc would be a size 8 in Dillard's/Macy's/etc.

With stores betting a woman would pay extra money to get the lower number. Granted, women are under much more societal pressure to have that lower size.
