I didn't say everyone though, I said almost everyone and there is at least one person who consistently posts in this thread who obviously is clueless and does not understand.NeverKnow said:I don't see anyone being misled. As you say, everyone understands the difference
L/XL GoodNites seem to be quite adequate for her purposes.
I don't understand the comparison to the present case, since the OP has 33-34" hips, and L/XL is boys size 14-20.
(I don't quite understand 'sizes'. I have 35" hips and 32" waist. But if I wore size 32 or size 35 waist jeans, they would fall down; I wear size 30, which in mens corresponds to boys size 20. Boys size 20 jeans fit me perfectly. That was part of the reason I went ahead and bought GoodNites when I was younger; I seemed to be within the size range, going by my pants size. This was before I was taking measurements. Sure enough they fit me about as comfortably as my pants.)
Goodnites might be adequate, but then again they may not fit and wouldn't any store available adult pull-up be just as adequate without risking them being too small or tight or not fitting as desired?
Perhaps you don't understand the word "akin" then, the hypothetical dimensions I gave have nothing to do with the OP, it was just an example.
If boys size 20 jeans fit you then you must be short. The fact that you mention that you fit in boys size 20 means that it is impossible for boys size 20 to fit you but mens size 32 waist to not fit because both have the exact same waist size. As an aside size 20 boys is generally only available in Husky. Boys size 20 is 32" waist and a 29.5" length, the closest equivalent mens size would be 32"-30" as 32-29 and 32-28 don't exist. By the way 35 waist pants/jeans are very seldom made except for stores that specialize in clothes for heavyset and tall people.
And for the record Goodnites size is listed as L/XL but the website and (some versions of the packaging) explicitly state that the size corresponds to size 12-14 clothing. The S/M size is said to correspond to size 8-10. The XS size is mentioned as being size 4-6. You incorrectly assumed the Goodnites product "fits" up
to size 20 since it mentions XL. I previously have attached photos/screenshots showing where the size equivalents are explicitly stated, so you can search for the old thread if you are interested.
All I was saying is why say "I can fit in X product" when you can just as easily say "I was able to get X product on without ripping."
