You don't notice guys having this problem do you? And why? Because men design all the damn clothing that's why!

OK, I just have one question here. Why, why, why do clothing
manufacturers assume all adult American women have narrow
backsides? Haven't they looked around this great land, for cryin'
out loud? People are aging and people are chunky. They eat Nachos
and donuts and too much pizza. People are not tiny anymore.
Yet the same thing happens to me again and again and again. Pull
two sizes of same pants off of rack. Enter dressing room and strip
in flourescent light. Pull on larger of the two sizes. Note *huge*
gaps in waistband, nice fit in seat. Pull on smaller size. Note
nice fit in waistband, Charro fit in seat. Purchase larger size,
pay money to shorten, come back in a week, cinch up excess waist
fabric with belt, having achieved the "hillbilly" look.
Ladies, we need to rebel against this madness.

knows she is *not* the problem here)
