I hate clothes shopping too but mainly I suspect for different reasons. I mean sizing is awful for me too so when I finally do find stuff in my size I rarely like it. Also mens clothes are just so dull. All dim earth tones. No excitement or show. That's why I hate clothes shopping. Everything is dull or if I do find something I like its never in my size. If the world was full of interesting clothes in my size I might like shopping about a lot more.
As it is I just go and buy the same brand I know is comfortable when ever I need to. I remember as a kid I used to complain to my mother that the clothes she bought me were dull so one day in a store called Cole Brothers that also sold fabric cut off the bolt mum asked me to pick out the kind of fabric I'd wear if she could find it and I went to the shinny bright light blue bolt of fabric and pointed to it and mum told me that was for bridesmaids dresses and I went bright red. But it's true if I had the licence I'd probably swan about like a pretty boy in shiny girly fabrics. I just like things brighter, more elaborate and dare I even say it a bit prettier than most mens fashions. I'd at least love it if they weren't so boring. I guess unusual shaped women have the same issues. We should commiserate by gorging on chocolate ice cream together while sobbing. lol or not
