How do I measure my self to get men's pants?

Question

I'm ordering online because If my parents went in the store and saw I was actually shopping in the men's department, (even if I was using my money) they wouldn't let me buy it.

So how does that go as far as sizing.

Shirts and Pants

Answer 1

i dont get the question your asking, explain it more in detail

please, why wont your parents let you shop in the  men department?

Answer 2

Shirts:  neck size in inches and arm length in inches.  Pants:  waist size in inches and inseam in inches.  You might be confronted with shirts in small, medium and large. Small or medium would seem likely for most females.  

Answer 3

Omg, I just did this last week! Hahaha, what a strange coincidence. Well, I'm thirteen and very small for my age. If your hips are /exactly/ thirty inches, get a twenty-nine or a twenty-eight and invest in a good belt. You'll need it. :)

I need Juniors 00 Short (which is still too big.... *dies*), and a 32 is only about four to six inches too long, so depending on what size clothes you wear....

Don't measure yourself like you would for women's clothes. It doesn't work the same way. :)

If you tell me what size you wear in Juniors, I could probably find your size for you.

I hope this helps! :)

Yeah, only that doesn't work for pants. Women measure in a different area of the waist than men. You'll need to subtract several inches to get your real sizing. The inseam is also different. :S
