I... did not know we had a zucchini title. o.o

Also I tend to consider t-shirts to be more "unisex" than "men's" -- that is, you have "unisex" and "babydoll" instead of "men's" and "women's."

Ya it's just the cut on the sleeves. I have shirts that would fit my bf but he won't wear them because of the sleeves.

Yup. Tasty Zucchini (WHICH IS A HUGE LIE). My title is still the default rotation because my custom request hasn't been fulfilled yet. It's been like two days. Where are the staff?

As to graphic t-shirts, there CAN be a significant difference. There is a variety known as 'Women's cut' which tends to mean that it's form fitting and v-neck. Whereas a "men's cut" is a common reference to the standard neckline and lose variety.
I'm not a fan of form fitting myself, especially not with this chubby belly I've got and I can't stand v-neck, I'm too modest.

Men's t-shirts tend to be what I default toward. Mostly because the "women's" t-shirts tend to look ridiculous on me, for a couple reasons. The least of which is my short-in-relation-to-my-height torso (I'm not even joking on that. from my belly button to the bottom of my sternum is less than the length of my hand from the tip of my middle finger to the base of my palm. and from my waist to hips, it's only about 2-3 inches. But my legs are super long, which is where I get all of my height).

Plus, guys' shirts have better designs, imo. Especially in terms of nerdy/geeky things. Though I do have a couple Transformers t-shirts that I adore that are babydoll cut.

That is the appeal for me besides the loose fit.

At least around here, they're just called "t-shirts" and "babydoll tees" instead of "men's" and "women's." I've seen a few v-neck non-form-fitted shirts but not usually graphic tees, and for what it's worth I've seen a few v-neck t-shirts being sold in the men's section (though they've always been flat color, so they may be intended for undershirts that don't show under the collar of a button-up shirt).

I like the shaping of babydoll/ladies tees, but they frequently come up either short or too tight on me (even when I buy the largest size) because of my weird body... I have large but not very perky boobs and a lot of excess skin around my waist area from being pregnant twice... As such I either have to find american size tees or go with mens, but I'm not fond of the high round necks and lack of shape of them... :(

I also have stupidly large hips from having my daughter nearly 2 years ago.. My top half is a UK size 14/16 but my bottom half is closer to a UK size 18/20 :( And because my thighs are large it makes finding trousers/shorts/tights that fit stupidly difficult to find and get... I have quite a few troubles with my feet too, but that's a different matter entirely ^_^;; *is falling apart*

I added the "Tasty Zucchini" title a week or two ago. You only have it for a few posts. :P

It came from a discussion of edible titles, and one person being a vegetarian, hehe.

Cute. I was only messin' around about it though I meant what I said, I can't stand Zucchini.
As you can see I got passed it, hehe, and I have a custom request I'm waiting on.

Please send the zucchini to me. I will eat it raw, with lemon and salt. Or fry it with eggs. XD

T-shirt wise, I hate the sleeves on babydoll and woman's Tees. My arms are big, and I hate the fabric being pulled up into my underarms. Yuck no. That's like RedRum and zucchini.

-takes moms Zucchini out of the fridge and sends it to Tam- D8 you can has the yukkis

I would update your title for you but I don't have those powers :< And If I do . . . nobody ever explained them to me so I have no idea.

My torso is tiny so I could wear children's shirts if I wanted too! But I have pretty big hips so they scrunch up pretty easily.

I also see a ton of men wearing V-necks so that does not define women's verse men's shirts anymore.

Then again I live in Portland so . . .

Will do when I come across any. Or rather I'll try, my mother loves it so she might want it.

I haven't seen a lot of that in this part of California, at least I don't believe so but I don't pay much attention to what the people around me are wearing. I can say with certainty that I've seen it on TV so I know it to be true.

I'm just big all over. I've got a large bosom area, and in US sizes, my upper body's 18/20 depending on the cut of the top, but my bottom half is 22/24, again depending on the cut. I've also got very long legs, so finding trousers that fit properly is a PITA. I'm also very picky about how long my shorts are, because anything shorter than 2 inches above the knee tends to ride up on me.

It also makes finding long boots a huge hassle because, from years of walking and playing soccer and riding my bike as a kid/preteen/teenager, my calves are massive. I have to get extended calf sizes on the long boots, or go up two whole shoe sizes, just to find things that aren't too tight.

Ahhhh! I can't rob mamas!

Ah well. I was too sick to eat zucchini this past summer, but this summer coming I'm gonna feast on the bounty of the give away table at church. Bahaha.

Oh right. Forgot my short short legs and long body. XD And I too have calves of beef. And a set in stone aversion to getting a razor anywhere near my legs.
