yes, it makes your butt look fat.

i've always found it unfortunate when i see people, usually female who wear clothes that simply do not fit them.
clothes that are obviously too small or that do not flatter your body in any way: shape or form.
from a very early age it was instilled in me that it is essential to focus on dressing for yourSELF not for a certain size you think you fit into.
this is what dressing rooms were invented for.
that and hush-hush makeout+ sessions, but that's another story.
i have always put a lot of focus into flattering my form - particularly because i am not small-framed and i have curves that deserve being flattered instead of crammed into size ten jeans because i feel like i'm a size ten.

i am a size sixteen and a-ok with that. 
actually, i am USUALLY a sixteen, but sometimes a fourteen, sometimes an eighteen, depending on the make.
i defy you to find me a person on earth who has an unwavering consistent clothing size with every brand on earth.

it genuinely infuriates and offends me when females dress too small for themselves.
for a veritable corucopia of reasons.
it infuriates me because it is a blatant display of a lack of self-appreciation, fashion sense; all style aside, and a lack of being informed about the basic principles of how to clothe oneself.
it offends me because i am stricken with the notion that these females - and this applies to all ages and races and orientations - are more concerned with looking good than feeling good.
i feel like this somehow ties into sexual equality or in this case, lack thereof.
you look shallow.
you look uneducated.
you look heavier than you are.
you look like trash, frankly.

if you wear a pair of pants, or a top or skirt or dress or ANY facet of clothing that actually fits you, not only will you look great, you will FEEL great  by proxy; you will not be adjusting your waistbands and stuffing your tits back into your top or tugging your shirt to cover the lovehandles that are being squeezed out the top of your jeans.
you won't be turning sideways to see if your gunt (the flub between your gut and your...) is making oyu look pregnant.
you won't be re-zipping your fly every two hours because it won't stay done up.
you won't be tempted to undo your pants an inch to let yourself breathe a bit.
you won't be arching your back to hide any tummy rolls.
if you take the time to find the fit that is right for you...
you WILL look confident and well put-together.
you WILL come across as more professional and mature.
you WILL exude an aura of intelligence and perhaps even fashion stylee.

this isn't to say people who dress 'wrong' are dumb. but they certainly don't look like the type you'd want to  leave your kids with for a friday night, or sell you a diamond engagement ring, or serve you a ten-ounce filet mignon.

i wish more women would take the time to show the world that they care about themselves.
