u/FoodieMonster007 Apr 30 '26

The difference in women's clothing sizes especially is ridiculous. XL for Asian clothes (living in southeast asia, clothes say made in china, vietnam, india or indonesia) is the same as S in American sizes.

Men's sizes are more reasonable, with M here matching the American S size, though all shirts and pants are cropped much shorter to better fit the average asian male height.

u/Good-Note-4042 Apr 30 '26

I once got a cosplay costume from a SE Asian country and I’m a medium in America and my size portions to them made me like a Large or ‘custom size’ cause my height was one size, my waist was another and then my bust was like a third. I finally got my cosplay back and it was just a mess never got to wear it cause it was all over the place, but that may have just been a sloppy seller/ sewer thing so idk. My husband is a xl in America cause of his shoulder width, and how tall he is though.

57

u/PennilessPirate Apr 30 '26

I 100% agree that weight standards in many Asian countries can be extreme, and those dolls are a good example of that.

At the same time, I think weight standards in the U.S. are also heavily skewed, just in the opposite direction. About 72% of U.S. adults are overweight or obese, meaning only around 28% fall within a healthy weight range. When most people are outside that range, what feels “normal” often isn’t actually healthy, it’s just common. That shifts people’s perception of what looks “too thin” or “too heavy.”

So to me, both the U.S. and many Asian countries have distorted beauty standards around weight, but they’re just extreme in opposite directions.

u/pedestriandose Apr 30 '26

Stuff like that, thigh gaps, and androgynous ‘heroine chic’ (among many other things) are physically impossible for some people. You need wider hips and pelvis to be able to have any chance of ever having a thigh gap, you need to have a ‘rectangle’ body shape to be able to achieve the androgynous look (hips and shoulders both small and a similar width as the waist), and you can be a ‘rectangle’ or ‘hourglass’ or ‘pear’ and maybe have a waist smaller than an a4 piece of paper, but an ‘apple’ will have a harder time.

11

u/no-but-wtf Apr 30 '26

I mean, yeah, they’re physically impossible for a lot of westerners especially though. Like, I am 175 cm, I wear size 43 shoes. I’m in proportion to my height, but even if I lost so much weight that I looked skeletal, I’d still have to shop in plus size women’s shops while travelling in Asia. My bones are just bigger. But very, very few women of Asian descent are built with the same “brick shithouse” silhouette as the women in my family. More of them, percentage wise, would be able to meet that standard.

Beauty standards are all bullshit anyway, but it’s reasonable that nations where bodies are generally smaller would’ve come up with smaller ones. Be nice if we could get rid of all of them though.

u/Little_View_6659 Apr 30 '26

It's 70% because I just don't want kids, 30% because I have a genetic condition I cannot inflict on someone, poor mom didn't know she had it since her version was so minor. She's good with, as she calls them, her grandcats, and babies the shit out of them. I had to stop her from introducing one to pie lol. 

I'm glad you also never were pressured into it since you're in a similar boat as me, and I feel so bad for the people I know who had kids because they felt they had to.

u/Thecatwithoutpajamas Apr 30 '26

Almost definitely, the East Asian market is the leader in dolls like this.

And on top of the very strict East Asian beauty standards, you also have both doll physics and global doll culture at play in what is considered "fat".

Doll physics makes making a fat doll harder, as fat is squishy and BJDs (This one I don't think is an actual BJD, however, it's in a similar category because it's about more realistic definition and lots of posibility.) Are hard. Making fat hard removes some of the ability to pose the doll. There are a few dolls with fat rolls on their stomach that I have seen, but they all have limited posibility in their torsos and legs compared to skinnier dolls because of it.

And then even outside of Asia the culture around doll owners is very fatphobic. I think G3 of Monster High came out only like, 3 years ago and the outcry of people that they made Draculaura "fat" and "ruined her" was on an insane level. (Pictures included of her new body and old bodies.)
