Sexist styles

OK so WHAT THE TOOT is going on with all this "boyfriend boyfriend" crap in women's fashion?

There are "boyfriend" sweaters, "boyfriend" T-shirts, "boyfriend" shorts, and "boyshorts" underwear, and now these watches. The theme here seems to be that no decent woman could wear any item of clothing that's not suffocatingly tight, or accessory that's tiny and useless, unless she can pretend that she's borrowing it from her boyfriend (and of course she must pretend that she has a boyfriend who will let her borrow his stuff).

I weigh about 46 kg/100 lbs right now so I definitely can fit in "skinny jeans", but you know what? I hate tight pants because I prefer to carry keys and cards around IN my pockets rather than lugging a stupid purse around. I think miniscule watches that you have to squint at to read are pretty pieces of crap. If you want to call my pants "boyfriend jeans" go ahead, I'll call you a bimbotic idiot.

Some of Fossil's "men's" watches are really, really nice-looking and it makes me angry that they don't make them in small, a.k.a. "women's" size. The Fossil women's range for the most part is decorative but nonfunctional. Back in college I had a Swatch Irony that was nearly as wide as my wrist. It was a men's watch, an automatic with a transparent back crystal through which you could see the workings. Being a cheap one, it became wildly inaccurate (+/- 3 minutes a week) after I accidentally hit my hand on the wall a couple of times, but it's still my favourite ever.

NB: I know a lot of my friends like pretty, feminine things, and I do too - albeit once in a blue moon. The point of this post is not to make value judgements on anyone's taste in fashion, but to say that I'm sick of the ridiculous condescension by those responsible for marketing women's products.
