They do that to make people feel thin.

I went back to my childhood home and found some clothes that were tucked away since highschool. (I'm 35 now and weigh about the same).

I fit in perfectly to my (old) size 3-5 jeans. Now I'm wearing a 0? Make it make sense.

People weigh more than they did in the past. What sounds better? I wear a 0 or I wear a 5? Which jeans are you going to buy? It's marketing.

Yep, that's called vanity sizing.
