Well, I wear a size 4, and I probably wouldn't die -- in fact, I might be glad of a little consistency, because then I wouldn't have to try on the 2 and the 4 and the 6! This actually isn't uncommon with high-end designer jeans, and somehow all the models manage to survive the horrors of double-digit sizes . Getting hung up on a size is about being fatter or thinner than your norm, and about being fatter or thinner than everyone else. I personally don't care if they call it a 16 or a 79, but I did find it a little upsetting to be wearing the largest size "normal" stores carried. Likewise, some women get a kick out of being thinner than everyone else and wearing the smallest size there is, and I don't think it makes much difference exactly what the number is.
