Talk about a system which has been changed and manipulated to deceive. The clothing measurement scale for women (excluding bra size) has stayed away from being set in standard units forever. Hell, even women will tell you that a numerical size from one manufacturer differs from the same numerical size from another manufacturer. There has also been a movement to slide the measurements toward lower numbers in order to make women feel more comfortable buying large sizes.

Here's a link to one measurement chart, don't look at it as the gospel though.

Note that the chart says that the measurements are body sizes, not manufacturing specifications.

I doubt it. I'm 5'5 so I'd say I'm the normal weight for someone my size.

Lol its a bit confusing alright! They'll have cloths in multiple sizes but tell you the smallest size.

You're nearly average height so 114Ibs is skinny! you must have a petite body type.

5'5" and 114 is not skinny. Maybe in the Fat States of America, but in much of the world that is fairly average if not a big overweight. Everybody is fat these days in America. Huge thighs and butts dominate the American landscape these days.

Dress sizes really have nothing to do with size. Weight is also not a good indicator. A Lithuanian, Latvian, or Ukrainian girl will way less than a Germanic girl even though she is probably taller. Why? Body type. Long legs, long arms, and tiny trunks.

Unless the chick is really tall (5'11+) ANY dress size in the double digits means she is overweight.

Thats true. Thats why I ment that women can be slim and still weight more than 114Ibs unless they have a petite body type.
