I have a wierd confession to make. Before I put on my clothes I strech them out. Like my pants and my shirts. Does anyone else do this???

the way my body is shaped, I actually have to do that to parts of my clothes!

The arms and neck, mainly. I have a very very short neck, almost nothing there, actually, and my arms are my problem area, so I stretch the sleeves and the neck on my shirts, so they arent snug. I dont like snug clothes at any rate. I only started wearing jeans about 3 years ago!

Normally, right after I wash any pair of jeans, I wear them around the house for at least an hour before I wear them anywhere. It gives them a chance to form to my body. There are some other things, like wool sweaters that I try to stretch out when the shrink, but I am never truly successful.

Just two days ago, I was having this very conversation with two women in the locker room. It was funnier because the conversation included demonstrations of these clothes-stretching moves. It's a pretty common thing, especially right after the wash.

I do that! Sometimes with jeans after I get them out of the washign machine I will stretch the waist and then hang dry them.

I do it mainly with t-shirts. I have giant man shoulders and big upper arms. That's why I like to wear shirts from the boy's department. Wider shoulders and arms than juniors and women's stuff.

When I was a kid, my mom used to do that to all of my clothes, lol. I always found it a little pointless, but I have done it before. And just to confess for my hubby: he does it every morning.

My older sis would have me hold the back of her shirt and run away from me so I could help her stretch it out. It was so funny.

Haha - I totally do this with tshirts! For me it's around the stomach. I usually stretch it out with my knees.

Guilty as charged...damn t shirts!

Oh yeah. I grab onto the arm of my shirt with one hand and grab that hand with my other hand and push to stretch out my sleeves.

I always pull my shirts down cause theyre never long enough. I hate my stomach and try to cover as much of it as possible.

LOL!!!!!! That is soooooooooooooooooooo funny


Thanks for everyone's confessions, I feel so much better. I thought I was the only WIERDO who did this LOL!
