Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Any woman-identified person under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is welcome.
Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.

How do you guys decide on what size clothing to buy when you're shopping online.

There are a few online-only stores I'd like to try, but they don't have free returns.

You think it would be in their best interest to provide accurate size charts!

Quality control has gone out the window on everything since COVID, and sizing was already inconsistent before that.

Size charts and measurements help a lot as others have mentioned, and definitely judge everything about the quality of the listing. One of my favorites that I can across had multiple size models with their measurements for each size.

My preferred method is trying on a brand in-store to dial in my size with them before finding the styles I like online.
