    Wow what an over exaggeration.

    I literally wrote something out and then I deleted it because you're one of THOSE females.

    :smokin: Chill out doll.

    Don't be one of those females that have to make a point to put down other females in an attempt to show off how much better you are by calling them condescending names while making sure everyone reading knows you aren't one of THOSE females.

    hey if a guy wants to base the success of his relationship on the size of his wife, he just has to be prepared for his wife to base the success of their relationship on his income. that's the way it works right... ?

    BWAHA HA HA HAHA!

    I was in Sam's Club once and my cart had probably 6 bags of chips in it (for my teens - I don't actually like chips usually) and some hot, young guy behind me said "you shouldn't eat those, you'll get fat". Blew my hair back. I just said "oh, they're for my husband and sons". The more I thought about it, the madder I got. The nerve. The moral to the story - there are a**holes everywhere -- and they SHOP!

    Size 8 is proper slim here in the good ol' U of K.

    I'm guessing size 8 relates to a 10 or 12 over here.

    Really, if you're going to work in a store that sells women's clothing, you should probably learn how to handle male customers who have no idea how women's sizing works. It's YOUR job to make HIM feel comfortable, not the other way around. I'm not saying it's okay for him to be rude. But if you've worked in retail for any amount of time, you know that it happens, and you ought to know how to deal with it. Righteous indignation is pretty much never an appropriate response.

    Welcome to the real world, in which one encounters jerks. It isn't necessary to risk your job by responding to every tacky comment.

    It's kind of funny that a lot of women assume that 90% of men even know what a size 8 is or even looks like. Forseriously.

    Considering that a Size 8 varies from store to store and manufacturer to manufacturer, then, yes - it is difficult to know what "size 8" is.

    as for the OP - if it were me, I probably would have said something similar to, "well, I haven't had any complaints" and left it at that.

    i have been entertained by the this thread though. thanks.

    No and if you read back you'll see that I'm not the only one who found humor in it.

    People get all up in arms and offended by the most ridiculous things. Get over it and move on.

    It was at least quick-witted?

    I had an ex tell me once that I was "only allowed to gain weight 2 or 3 times in our 'life together'" (referring to when I popped out his kids). Needless to say, that relationship didn't last.

    I was, and still am, out of his league looks-wise. He still calls to ask "how I'm doing". Douche-canoe.

    Douche-canoe=my new favorite phrase....

    What a jerk. Shows how disposable marriage is today though.

    And shows people's unrealistic expectations in today's society!

    Or it was just a hilarious well placed joke!

    Clearly this is why he has a GIRLFRIEND and not a wife.

    I work at a high-end athletic clothing store that caters to size 2-12. Most of the girls I work with are in the size 4-8 category, or Extra Small, Small, or Medium.

    Yesterday a man came in the store, looking for an outfit for his girlfriend. He was talking to one of my co-workers, who happens to be a size 8. The man was trying to decide what size to get his girlfriend, so my co-worker said "Is she anything like me?" to which he answered "No, she's smaller". Then she said to him "Well a 4 here is an Extra Small, a 6 here is a size Small, and an 8 is..." and before she could finish he cut her off with "Divorced". He said it in a completely serious tone and did not laugh. CAN YOU BELIEVE THE NERVE OF HIM? :mad:

    It got me thinking... If I were her what would I have done or said to him? In hindsight she said she wished she had said "Our company is all about encouraging people to live a happy, healthy life. Your comment is disrespectful towards women. A size 8 is a perfectly healthy size and I am very offended by your comment. You can either apologize to me as a size 8 woman, or leave my store immediately."

    Did his name start with a B and rhyme with slobby?

    Sticking up for a body type doesn't mean you have to put down another one.

    Body shaming is NEVER okay.

    I would have asked him if he found Marilyn Monroe attractive.

    She was a 10, by the way.

    And did anyone care if she could act? No. All they cared about was whether she was in focus.

    I heard she was a 14. I couldnt believe it when I heard that.
