Wrong gender!

I went to a sale the past Saturday (2nd June) at Town Hall some SUPER BIG MASSIVE WAREHOUSE sale for brands like CK, G Star, Levis, Mossimo, Wrangler, and some other jeans and urban wear brands. I was quite excited as most females get when they see SUPER BIG MASSIVE WAREHOUSE sales.

Show/Hide all

I was a little disappointed that the huge sale items turn out to be pretty crappy stuff, like real ugly jeans in super sizes, or super tiny sizes (as massive warehouse sales usually are like), and the ones nice were a pair of Wranglers and G-Star jeans. I did learn however, that G-Star Raw jeans are RIDICULOUSLY priced, much to my disappointment (uh AUD$230 AFTER 50% off anyone?).

The other pair I had tried on and liked was a pair of black straight leg Wranglers that I thought would go nicely with my boots. $49 bucks, not toooo cheap, but I guess better than $100 jeans. I was quite content with my jeans, until I got home and showed my mum my newly acquired jeans. The first thing she said to me was "they're men's jeans". Yes, I know that the size of the jeans were in inches (which is usually only for men in Australia), but everything there was in inches - including all the DEFINITE female jeans.

My mum clearly was not convinced, being the jeans professional that she is. So I checked the only sign on the jeans, stuck to the back pocket. There in plain English "comfortable men's jeans". My heart sank, then after some more close examination, they clearly were, men's jeans. The over-sized pockets (front and back), and the "roomier" crotch (which I found a little weird when trying on, but ignored as funny design), and the fly that goes all the way down to the seam.

Now - I'm here complaining (too much) about my jeans, I'm here baffled by the fact that I got confused between men's jeans and females. We know there's something wrong with men these days, when they start wearing jeans that are skin tight and have a curvy design to them. I'm not a skinny girl, and these jeans looked JUST LIKE normal girls jeans on me, apart from the fact that the back pockets go halfway down my thigh.

I'm still content about my jeans, although am a little depressed they're actually men's, but with a few small alterations no one can tell :P However, I am saddened by a world in which we live, where men and women can just interchange their clothing without noticing any significant differences.
