    do you think anybody would notice if i wore guy jeans. i already wear unisex t shirts and hoodies. i wear simple shoes that anybody could wear. and the pants i wear now are girls, but their just simple jeans, or baggy (girl) cargo pants. im at a christian college and i dont want anybody to think anything about me. i want to wear baggy jeans not guy skinny jeans. i also bind and have short hair. i don really care if people talk or think something, i just want to know if you think people would specifically notice.

    It is pretty ok for a girl to wear guys clothes actually, and not many people mind. It is when a guy wear girls clothes, people start to freak out. Stupid double standard.

    I wear guys clothes all the time. I used to when I went to church too. Nobody ever really said anything (A couple of people said something, but they eventually realized that I didn't care.)

    i don't think there's much, if any, stigma attached to women wearing men's clothing. i'm typically very girly-looking and dressing, but i've always had some boys' clothes in my wardrobe. no one has ever said a word about it

    Speaking from experience, barely anyone will even bat an eyelash at it.
    I frequently buy from the mens section in stores and no one gives me a second glance.

    The real thing people seem to notice is if you're wearing shorts and you don't shave.
    But I usually tell them to go f themselves and that if they want to see shaved legs, they have two of their own they can shave. ;P

    I think you are ok with guy jeans. I want to try to wear girl jeans out in public but I'm afraid to do that. Like someone else said... Stupid double standard.

    I think wearing guy's jeans will be totally fine. I wear men's jeans all the time and nobody notices. There are different cuts to the jeans that may fit better than others, so I would just say try on many different styles until you find some you're comfortable with.
