Well, not everyone obviously, but it's the norm amonsgt me and my mates....it definitely makes you feel better about yourself as well when you cut all the labels off so you forget which one's a size 12 haha

also, average size? hello, have you been outside lately?! everyone's getting fatter!
yeah, i know, that's another reason to cut off the labels cos you know you're not actually a size 12 even if the clothes do say so.
