I can always tell how I'm feeling about myself by the pants I choose to wear on any given day.
Today, I am wearing Big Pants. They are my size, but they have the wide leg and are actually rather baggy in that stupid discrepancy-between-sizes-in-different-brands- and - pants-types sort of way. These are called Gap Army and are sixes, yet I can pull them off without unbuttoning the button-fly, and I also look like I have a penis. And not a small penis, either.

That's troubling, for some reason.
Reminds me of one time when I was having a beer with a girl I was dating, way back in college. We were sitting there drinking, and apropos of nothing she said, "If I had a penis, it would be a big penis. I just know it."
I've never forgotten the remark. I think it may be both the best and the worst thing she ever said.

Ha!
I've always thought mine would have great girth.
I don't *want* to look like I have a penis. I'm just a small girl who has a hard time buying pants.

What is the deal with the size funky mojo. I remember in middle school or high school, going through a period when I was so disturbed by the zippenis phenomenon. I remember feeling weird shame - I just knew everyone was calling me a freak.
Hey--are you eating?
You better be eating- and eating properly little sister!

I think all size sixes should be the same. I mean, I get the low waist vs ultra low waist vs mom pants vs pants with elastic waists. So, the different cuts, sure, will be a little different.
BUT NONE OF US HAVE PENISES!
I have been eating well. Thanks for your concern.
I do, however, have an inflamed trigone. I have trigonitis. The Internet says it can be caused by high and fluctuating levels of estrogen, which I suppose the prgenancy-abortion bit involved.
The Internet does not have any one way to "cure" it. There may be no cure. It could be chronic. Also, some of the Internet thinks it doesn't even exist.
Anyway, I have to pee all of the time and my lower left and upper right abdominal quadrants hurt. But not badly. Even if I had this chronically, it wouldn't much change the quality of my life in any real way.
Though, right now, the meds make me SLEEPY and my pee is bright blue.

Warning - if word gets out that it "appears" as if you have a penis, your spam content will triple. Guaranteed.

I had to catch up some, as I've been busy with my weird life too. My dad sick, my grandma with the broken hip, etc, etc.
I hate to hear your sadness, but I am glad you feel ok to share it. Release it.
My thoughts 'in progress' too... ((trisha))
