what up guys welcome to my reaction series today we're talking about modern women and vanity sizing
00:00:06.220
so as you guys know we've just gotten fatter and that's the truth the average american woman
00:00:11.260
weighs 170 pounds and is a size 16 let that sink in for a second wow what have clothing companies
00:00:19.620
done to keep women buying more clothing without hurting their egos they've created vanity sizing
00:00:26.600
vanity sizing is when clothing companies label clothes smaller than their actual measurements
00:00:32.140
so let's take a look at a couple women complaining about vanity sizing i saw a girl in here the other
00:00:38.580
day post about vanity sizing and we need to have a chat about this if you don't know what vanity
00:00:42.980
sizing is it's basically when clothing companies and brands will take a size and make it bigger than
00:00:48.060
it actually is so people will think they're smaller than they are like if a girl is normally a medium
00:00:53.180
and she's never fit into a small in her life and suddenly she goes to a store and fits in a small
00:00:56.980
she's like oh my god i fit into a small and it's like this great thing we all know abercrombie has
00:01:02.400
had a major rebrand ever since their old ceo was like super homophobic and fat phobic and like never
00:01:08.200
wanted i miss him sounds like a great guy bigger people to wear their clothes now everyone wears
00:01:14.180
abercrombie they have like super size inclusive everything i love their stuff it's amazing quality
00:01:19.740
however they have some of the worst vanity sizing i have ever experienced i'm not a big person but i
00:01:26.780
have never in my life been an extra small in bottoms just because i go to the gym and i have
00:01:31.300
a really muscular butt and leg so they're just bigger they don't fit in an extra small i bought a skirt
00:01:37.040
from abercrombie a few weeks ago and the small was enormous on me like literally falling off me so i
00:01:43.120
would have had to go to an extra small also i love their jeans however i fit a size two in their jeans
00:01:50.480
i normally like a size four a size two would be like really tight on me especially like my butt and
00:01:56.160
legs but in abercrombie a size two is even a little bit big on my waist which is crazy so if you ever
00:02:02.100
wonder why you're a different size at every single store you go to it's because of vanity sizing
00:02:06.880
yeah that's so true oh my gosh that's so true and the older the store is marketed to the worst
00:02:13.700
worse it is white house black market is one that definitely does it because they sell really high
00:02:19.120
end clothing to like older women and i'll tell you what i feel i feel skinny in those size i see i see
00:02:28.480
why it kind of does work because you're like oh i'm so skinny everything's so big and then you go to
00:02:34.600
like a clothing store that's for younger women and you're like oh dang it i'm obese you know so
00:02:41.560
it just it depends on the age of their clientele let's face it our generation is in a testosterone

00:03:58.840
half and before that like growing up pretty much my entire life i was small i weigh pretty much this
00:04:06.760
probably a little bit more than i did like in high school whatever but like measurements wise i should
00:04:12.920
be bigger because i am a woman now i was a child then but can you please explain to me why i'm wearing
00:04:19.400
smaller size clothing than i did then in high school i was a medium sometimes sometimes small
00:04:28.760
and my jeans i was a four i was never i don't remember ever being smaller than a four like i
00:04:36.920
remember i had friends that were smaller than me like if i would be at their houses and i forgot jeans
00:04:41.400
or whatever like oh you can borrow jeans they're a size like two jeans whatever they were not going over my
00:04:46.040
hips now why am i buying size two jeans that are big on me and this does not sound like woe is me i'm so
00:04:55.560
tiny but like what are the girls doing that are actually smaller than me because i'm not like tiny like i
00:05:04.600
i love what i look like whatever like i'm not trying but like i i'm not like i have muscle i do
00:05:11.480
i so it's like what and i have hips like so what are the people doing that are like a true
00:05:21.000
extra small because why am i walking into stores and like trying on a small a size small skirt whatever
00:05:27.560
and it's gaping on me why am i buying a size four skirt and having to get it taken in like eight
00:05:35.880
fucking inches okay it's a bit dramatic but i don't understand and it's messing with my body
00:05:41.640
just won't give so much because i'm like damn am i like too fucking tiny like
00:05:51.080
i don't know and then you don't know what dress size you actually are because it's like god only
00:05:55.640
knows you know like what is my actual dress size if i go to three different stores and have three
00:06:00.280
different sizes i'm just confused because there's a pair of jeans that i have that i wear now that
00:06:07.480
are vented levi's that i got in high school or like right out of high school when i was like
00:06:14.520
probably a little bit smaller than i am now but they fit me great and they're like
00:06:20.840
i don't know maybe there are four and that's what i feel like i should be but then every time i order a
00:06:27.480
pair of jeans that are that now they're like gaping on me and i'm genuinely just so confused
00:06:33.720
because if i lost muscle like if i was any smaller at all like i don't know what i would do
00:06:41.240
i don't know i'm just i'm honestly very interested like if you work in the clothing industry
00:06:47.800
what's the answer to this okay let's see what they say
00:06:50.840
um i'm a two or a four now i have a size 10 suit from 2000 oh my gosh um the world has gotten bigger
00:07:03.240
instead of just making bigger sizes company just decided to keep the same sizing chart but make the
00:07:08.040
measurements bigger um yes i go to lulu and i try on size four leggings but they're too tight
00:07:17.320
and at ae i can't fit in it until it's double zero zero zero i know the world is just never honest
00:07:26.040
with us ever they can't just say you're fat xxxl lady vanity sizing has gotten completely out of control
00:07:36.600
i'm a four i'm a pretty consistent four and i'm not gonna even name the brand because it doesn't really
00:07:42.280
matter but i tried this on in the store and based on when i tried on the four it was ginormous i knew
00:07:48.840
if i wanted this in my size i needed to go down at least two sizes so i ordered a zero
00:07:56.040
they're huge like i would need probably still two sizes down which doesn't exist so then that means
00:08:03.640
what are the girls who are size two yeah i know it's we get punished for doing the right thing right
00:08:09.000
which and she's smaller than me but it's so interesting we always applaud people that lose
00:08:14.520
weight and i could say this as someone who's like lost weight since i was younger the people we should
00:08:22.120
be applauding are the people that never gained it they're better than us do you know what i mean
00:08:26.680
like and they're punishing the world's punishing the women that do the right thing it's so unfortunate
00:08:32.840
what are the like true size zero and double zero girls gonna wear like brands need to make clothes
00:08:39.640
incorrect sizing there should be a standard so hard i think for women when sizing is so inconsistent you
00:08:47.560
could be one size at one store and one size at another store i guess all the more reason like don't
00:08:53.080
get caught up in what size you wear but it's also really frustrating especially when you're ordering stuff
00:08:58.840
and then it doesn't fit and you either have to like send it back and then repay for shipping and
00:09:04.040
all of this like i don't know it's just too much like brands get it together but i also want to say
00:09:10.440
that's why i come on here and i typically always share what size i got especially if i'm looking
00:09:17.240
to buy a piece of clothing from a brand i've never bought from before i will look it up on tiktok
00:09:22.840
and i will like scroll through videos and nobody says what size they got and people are just looking
00:09:29.080
for help especially if you're trying to shop a brand you've never shopped before like sharing sizes and
00:09:34.120
maybe your particular measurements is just going to help somebody else try to find the correct size
00:09:39.240
just because there's uh skinny women losing once again because the wet the world just caters to fat women
00:09:47.560
actually all right now let's see this one i do want to talk about women's clothing sizes in the video
00:09:55.400
where this comment is from i'm trying on a dress at aritzia and the first one that was a little bit
00:10:00.920
big on me was an extra small so i went to an extra extra small but i think that this is so important
00:10:07.000
because there has been a lot of conversation about vanity sizes and sizes are bigger now petite girls or
00:10:14.200
skinny girls or whatever get on for saying that nothing fits them and everyone's like oh boohoo
00:10:20.520
whatever you know i'm sorry there is no reason for me to fit an extra small or an extra extra small
00:10:28.200
i'm like average height i'm about five five even just height alone that is crazy like there are lots of
00:10:36.760
adult women who are five feet my mom is like five foot one or something i feel like some places really
00:10:43.400
have been making their clothes bigger like why can't we just have they do a whole we have absolutely
00:10:49.320
done this um all right guys um let me know what you think in the comments and if you're a woman
00:10:58.120
let me know if your sizing has gone up or or um down over the years if you've been a consistent weight
00:11:05.960
