The Gap closes the gap
I was watching TV with the wife last night and a Gap commercial came on. The commercial was about new pants for women.
Me: is this a commercial for men's pants that women want to wear?
The wife: No it's a commercial about woman's pants
Then why is a man wearing the pants
because they're called "The Boyfriend Trouser"
And men don't wear them
No
But women want too?
yes
Because they look like pants men would wear
yes, sort of
Why don't women just buy men's pants if they want to wear them?
Women don't want to wear men's pants, that's silly, these pants are for women
and they're called "the boyfriend trouser"?
yes, because they're cut like men's pants
that makes no sense
you just don't get it
what's not to get, I have pants that women don't want to wear but they want some just like them to wear
Just forget it
I wish I could
I've said it a thousand times, women confuse me.

Are you sure this is an issue about understanding women? Seems to me it's an issue revolving around understanding advertising. Trust me, I'm as mystified as you are.
:-)

Ah, but ya got to love women in underwear, I love women's underwear but sometimes I find the frilly ones a little itchy.HA!
Yes the advertising does baffle me but apparently it works. Why do people let the stores set the trends? And I still want to know why The Gap would think women would want man's pants.
HB:LOL, I never got the whole women in sexy underwear thing either. Yeah women look great in it but even better with it off :)
It depends on how they are tied up.
I didn't get it.
I like the cut of men's jeans more, ergo I buy men's jeans.
If a store makes pants that are but like men's, look like men's, and fit just like men's, then what stops 'em from being men's pants?
As for the sexy underware thing, I really enjoy seeing women in it, but it gets in the way when you shower. And I like women drippin' wet more then dressed.
HAHAHAHAHA!
Sorry, that may have been too much information.
*blush*
Jen just gave me a great idea for a photographic series!!!!
AND... for what it's worth...
I agree. If I want pants that look like men's pants, I'll just buy men's pants. And I certainly won't buy them from The Gap.
:-)
LOL! thats a funny conversation. I can imagne you scratchng your head and her busy in the kitchen answering your dumb ass questions (accordng to her of course).
I prefer people in underwear, underwear is sexy. Leaves soemthing to the imagination. ;)
HB: I going to borrow that 10' pole from daughter (I think 20 something had it as well) and not touch that one. :)
Jen: It's a lot of information but :)
Daughter: That's a whole other issue. Why my side of the closet is fair game for the wife. You don't catch me looking on her side.
20 Something: Yes, me and the wife have a lot of those dumb ass conversations. :) She grows tired of them quickly, she just can't be bothered with it. When you say you prefer people in underwear, now I'm thinking about men in thongs *gag* :)
ARGGHHH! no you ruined a perfect good horny thought!!! :(
I just meant men look honry in tight cotton boxers. :) The ones with the little letter box thing. What is that for anyway?
Yes - I agree with daughter - advertising makes some strange points! - odd way to try and make you buy something - I guess the more intrigued you are the more hope there is for advertisers! Look at us! 11 comments over some pants - it's working in some way!!!
LOL, It's for going to the bathroom without having to pull your pants down. (while you stand up, men that is) if you need more details let me know :-O
Lindsay: Good point!!! Great, now I'm part of the problem as well. Sneaky little bastards aren't they :)
Oh, pllleeeeeeaaaaasse, RT... I want more details!! Pray, do tell! I'd like excruciatingly detailed details, while you're at it....
}:-P
See daughter, right there is another good reason women shouldn't have men's clothes, you don't know how to operate them :)
RT: Too much information is my middle name! :-P
Daughter: I'm looking forward to the new photo series!! They've been great so far.
So you can pee without taking your pants down? Men are so lazy. :)
Little letterbox. :)
Some may call it laziness others may see the genius in it. Because of this feature we can go faster and don't need big stalls to surround us. That's why women have to wait in line at bathrooms and men usually don't. :)
Yeha but men get pee on their shoes and other peoples. And your loos stink. We have to wait for our loos but they are clean (usually) and don't make you want to vomit.
One time when I was in grade school I was hit in the head, the teacher took me in the women's bathroom to clean up the blood. I was a bit groggy but I swear there was a couch and tables in there. It was clean and smelled good too. I never knew if it was the head injury or if in fact this was a real place. I've always wondered if I will ever find out the truth. Of course I know women's bathrooms can't be like that, can they ... probably just a dream
:)
LoL RT.
yes our bathrooms are dreamy :)
When I was a student I couldn't wait the hour to 'queue' for the 'ladies' toliets, so I went to the mens (shock horror) other girls were doing it too. We used the cublicles before you ask.
I swear, I can still rememeber the smell, it was disgusting. There was what I hope was a centimeter of water on the floor, and it was filthy. I just wait for the ladies now. bzzzz its making the hair on my neck stand on end thinking about it.
