I am wearing a 34W part of pants. However its stretchy. I want no stretch so I go to the site calculator to figure out what size I am in their idiotic description of what I might be only to be presented with an option to pic the size I want. I'm I stupid? I measure 40.5 to 42.5 on my waist depending on where I measure. So that's 34? Sonobabich! why did the teacher give me so many wrong marks on my math tests then? 30? you mean 45! correct! 76? ahhh 85.1234233432! yes! correct again!

Even for guys the measurements don't always line up. I've found that some brands are significantly bigger than the number would suggest.

What I find very weird tbh.
When I buy pants, there are essentially two measurements:
In-seam length and waist circumference (and usually the manufacturer shows where to measure it in a picture).

So far I had no issues shopping by pre-measuring before doing the online shopping.
