alt Hacker NewsThis is the weirdest section, and is just unnecessary virtue signaling.
Women don’t buy their real size because it makes them feel bad -> market pressures companies to address that by doing vanity sizing -> brands bad
I cannot comprehend that jump in the logic.
Not quite “brands bad”.
It’s more that buying clothes across brands becomes confusing for women. That’s a worse outcome for women.
The villain isn’t the brands, it’s the vanity sizing.
