Default Personal Woman's "pants" Question???

I wonder if this BOTHERS anyone else. Specifically I'm talking about the "crotch" situation, and what my daughter calls "the camel toe". This is when pants are loose everywhere except the waist, get yanked up into the crotch--and show off that yucky little pooch of fat that seems to "linger" right on the pubic bone...

Bleh. I KNOW I'm not alone because I've seen enough other women whose pubic fat was visible through their jeans and they looked like they were being split in half. LOL

BUT SERIOUSLY... Seriously--I have to get jeans so big and loose to prevent this pulling (you'd think I was wearing suspenders) upward that it's ridiculous. Part of the problem is I do NOT have an hour glass figure. I have hips/butt like a boy--hence no waist. Any special cut of pants you can think of (other than men's which don't accommodate the thighs).

My brother (who IS, yes, uncouth at times) once remarked about a lady who was having this very problem with her bathing suit: "Ooooooo, I can read your lips baby and I KNOW you're talking to me. Heh heh" I DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE THAT SOMEONE "OBSERVES" THIS ABOUT!!!

YIKES.

XOXO
Mya

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Kenya;

If I looked as pretty as you right now--I'd spend my time "decorating" my body with whatever I could find that looked good TOO!!!

I also go for the repetition. There is a certain cut of guys zipper Gap jeans that I am PRAYING they still make!!! Those used to fit really nice!

RE: the story being funny... Chilly--LIFE is pretty durned funny!

XOXO
Mya

I had a mammography patient who had the surgery 3 years ago and last year she had her hips/back/belly lifted. She still cannot fit in pants right and she told me she went back to her plastics guy and asked if there was any way he could nip/tuck "there" because of all that loose skin and, um, such.

He told her that early surgeries of that sort have not been successful....there is not a nice balance as to where the skin ends and "parts" begin, if you catch my drift. LOL

Here's to further plastic surgery innovations!

I know what you mean - it's an issue sometimes for sure. I just got a new pair of jeans that was a bit snug there and I fixed my issue by wearing a panty girdle when there fresh out of the dryer, once I wear them a bit they're perfect. I recently heard the concept of "camel toe" and I dont want to be one of "them" either! Also, I thought plastics could fix everything!!

Hummm, I had a different impression of what "camel toe" is - but I don't know how I would describe it here w/o blushing - see crotch area.
