    My ex, a woman, complete with a woman’s hips, pretty much exclusively wore men’s trousers. Sometimes with a belt.

      It’s almost like different women are also shaped differently!

        And men too!

        But seriously, if I take what you’re saying at face value that this is a practical problem, large trousers and a belt will give you trousers that cover your legs and don’t fall down.

        What I suspect you want is trousers that not only fulfill your functional requirements but which you also think look good. And that is not even an unreasonable desire, but it is clearly a different desire, and one which I don’t think is problem that needs urgently addressing on a societal level. The fact that there is a tradeoff between

        • readily available
        • suits you
        • practical

        is at the level of annoying.

          Yes as detailed exactly in the other comments.

          But y’know, wouldn’t want women to think we deserve to have clothes we like.

          This entire conversation is about how annoying it is. That’s it.
