    It seems a lot of women wear juniors pants. Interesting.

    Huh? Juniors? How do u figure? Size 0,2,4,6,8,10,12- these are Juniors?

    Odd sizes are juniors. Lots of women have commented that they wear 5/7/9, which are junior sizes.

    Yes. This is what I was referring to.

    I tend to buy my jeans by waist size as well. Once in awhile I will find a brand that looks okay that does not size by waist.

    Oh, didn't realize.. I know jeans go by waist size such as 25,26,27, but thought all pants or shorts went by even numbers. That's how mine are.

    Oh yes, I forgot about pants and shorts. I honestly hate everything but leggings lol.

    I am 5’5”, 130 lbs, size 2-4. It’s my hips. My waist is smaller but I am always going to have crazy wide hips. And I believe at this weight in high school, as a nationally competitive long distance runner, I was size 6-8 so I’m seeing vanity sizing too.

    At my biggest I was in EU size 50 (at roughly 200-205lbs, I've been measured as 5'2-5'3), at my smallest I was a size 36, maybe 34 (around 110lbs), At the moment I'm mostly a EU 40 at 145-146lbs, depending on the store/how stretchy the jeans.
    My waist got really tiny at my lowest weight but my hips are naturally fairly wide so I'd fit into XXS/size 32 tops but a size or two bigger on the bottom

    5’ 5” 133 lbs. Usually a 4-6 in pants, although I have a couple pairs of jeans in the vanity size of 2. I’d venture to say without vanity sizing I’m probably an 8.
