I'm a size 12!

I'm going to buy womens jeans from now on, they have better cuts in my opinion.

Viva la revolution!

31 waist/36 leg. Any jeans company worth their salt should have these measurements printed on the jeans somewhere. That's all I really look for.

Oh, except for the DKNY jeans I got, I'll never buy another pair of them as the studs aren't fixed properly, and every time I go to put my hand in my pocket I manage to slice myself under the fingernail. ******* horrible.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

That hurts just imagining it.

W30/L32. I can usually find one, maybe two pairs wherever I'm looking. Usually takes an age, though, and they're never the colour I wanted... shedloads of 30/30, 32/32, 32/30... it's annoying as hell.
Grrr. Argh.

I can't find 34/36 to save my life. American jean manufacturers, it seems, don't think that people can be both tall and slim.

Heh I'm a 29/29
As far as I know, they don't even MAKE those, so I have to deal with 30/32.

I'm tall and a bit fat. I started off quite big anyway and used to do bodybuilding - bulking up, not getting ripped - so my waist was always thick. My thighs used to wear out the material so quick too. My weight just changes alot these days, so I'm always buying jeans. Normally between 36 waist and 42 waist, but I'm 6'2" so I either struggle on length or waist sizes - 42s are so hard to find now. Did everyone suddenly become an Umpaa Lumpaa or something?
As for buying womens jeans, one of my friends is a transvestite, and he wears womens jeans if he can't go somewhere in a dress (he's really skinny anyway) - so that he can be true to himself and not offend the more volatile aspects of society. He's still been beaten up alot though. And the police also twatted him for walking around the streets naked at four in the morning. Don't ask.

As far as these jeans are concerned, they are wicked. I had these deisels that I ****** loved but then drank ******* loads for 4 months - I used to do that anyway but used to run a lot and work out. I franjkly couldn't give a [composite word including 'f*ck'] with all that keep fit bollocks so stopped doing it = not so defined, more of a little beer gut.

But then these jeans wouldn;t fit and I'm a bit gutted. So then I'm round my mates house and for god knows what reason but she just sayd "try my jeans on." Well Idid, I swaer they are exactly the same as my old diesles that I loved but fir my berr gut - so I kept them on, I';m now at home and she is not english and is going back to her native land for keeps in two weeks.

Ao alls I have to do is 'keep forgetting' for 2 weeks and they is mine!

Little bit drunk. had a bad day so threw a few doubles down my neck at lunchtime. Only one person at work clocked it, they must all be thick as ****.

Emvee - 31 / 36? That's quite unique I'd say. Or not, maybe I'm just misinformed.

I think I'm 31/32 or so, but it depends on the brand. I sometimes fit into 30/32, but also into 32/34. It makes no sense.

Women's jeans rock indeed! :)

I think I have size 28/30 but all brands are different. I always get annoyed though when I have to take a larger size.

But it always takes forever to buy jeans! I have a bit of a 'hollow back' which makes me look pretty but they don't make many jeans for girls with my shape apparently. Except for the Italian/Spanish brands which fit muchmuch better.

I think you just have to find one or two brands that fits perfectly and stick with it.

I went to the gym today, and stood on the scale, and normally it reads 75 kg (which is fairly decent for 6'0" , but to me it's sooo much), but today it read less than 73. When did that happen?

I don't think I mind too much, really. Unless of course all my muscles are gone. :(
