5 Average my ass.

Getting dressed this morning I checked the label on my jeans, since I have 2 pairs of the same jeans.  The first is a 1-2 pair from days long ago.  I can still fit in them, on a skinny day.  Today was...not a skinny day.  The other pair is a size five.  Damn but they're comfortable.

Which was when I read it.  The label.  It said: 5 Average.

Five average my ass.  I don't know if I was just in a phenomenally good mood this morning or not, but the tag was downright insulting. I know it's referring to leg length. But it's just...I don't consider my legs average.  They're fine.  The label should read 5 Fine. 

Now admittedly I have jeans from Kohls, which is like, the tim hortons or dunkin donuts of jeans stores.  They're not a set of top dollar designer starbucks jeans.  I didn't pay money for the label, still, can't a gal get a smidge of self esteem from her jeans?  Seriously, 5 Average? 

Just sayin'.
