Title says it all. What really irks you that you don’t get to complain about much without catching some glances? Seriously, get as passionate as you’d like. I assume you’re an expert.

Women’s and Children’s pants sizes. It’s an 11 WHAT? THE FUCK DOES THIS NUMBER MEAN GODDAMMIT?
All pants sizes should be Waist circumference, Hip circumference, and (in the case of pants versus shorts) Length to ankle. Objective and not subjective measurements. Something I can put a measuring tape to and confirm. It’s not perfect, as everybody is different, but at least I’m not trying to dress my children and remember “A size 12 in this brand is a size 10 in this brand” bullshit.
I nearly foamed at the mouth ranting about how this shit drives me insane.
The size of an inch or a centimeter is arbitrary. In fact, all measurements other than natural units are arbitrary. Units need not scale linearly either. E.g. dB or the Richter Scale. A women’s number 11 or a size 10 shoe or a meter are all equally valid units of measure. What is fucked is the delineation of “men’s” and “women’s” sizes and the fact that women’s clothes have fewer and shallower pockets.
How is a physical measurement that is universally agreed upon “arbitrary”?
