Roughly, "my measurements are X, and this item fit like Y" is how I would want it to boil down. I'm not sure it would go over if implemented just that way, but the idea is there somewhere.
Your opinion of women on that matter is ill-informed. Where on the web do you see men actively sharing their pant-sizes? Those places just don't exist. Outside weight-sensitive communities like sports and performing arts, size is mostly irrelevant.
What I'm saying is of course from anecdotal experience. I am certain that many women I know who would otherwise fit the target market for this website would definitely not want to post publicly their measurements.
Obviously your experience is different. Happy to agree to disagree about the outcome, but lets not pretend like either of us have a definitive knowledge of all women.
Well, it could be anonymized, or a completely different take, perhaps a DSL for size and fit could be developed. Now that's a CS-level problem for an enterprising startup, "qualitative translation" or something. I'm sure there's entire classes on turning qual into quant.
I guess I didn't understand your previous comment, then.
However, it could be totally anonymized, with measurements being used only to filter what is displayed. Think of it like a dating site, where whether someone smokes, or is a vegetarian, or whatever can be used to gauge compatibility (such as it is). Nobody knows my search criteria on a dating site.
