Okay, so I am plus sized, and have a large butt and hips. I'm having a he'll of a time finding men's pants that fit. Any suggestions?
Because being awesome just wasn't enough.

Is it generally a certain kind/style of pants that you're having trouble with or all of them?

I have a ftm friend that is 6'1 280 lbs. She has big hips as well and the only place she can find jeans that will fit her is Walmart and Old Navy. She said Old Navy fits her really well, unless you go to Big and Tall,  but she couldn't afford it :/

If your friend is FTM, you should use male pronouns, just saying.

You're right, but she hasn't fully accepted it. She think she might be, until it is decided I will say she.

I have a pants issue too, and usually end up at the tailors no matter what I buy. If you have a good one in your area, it can make a world of difference.
To be or not to be....that is the question

I had a butt that my mom and all 3 of my sisters were jealous of. I fit awkwardly in male clothing. I couldn't resolve the issue until T finally did its work on my body. I know that's not the answer you wanna hear, but that might be what it takes, just time.

I appreciate all of your answers. I've just started an exercise program so hopefully I can shake off some of my badonkadonk lol. Not being able to find pants has definitely been really hard on me emotionally, because it really brings to light how different my body is from what I think it should be.

cargo pants  - I still can't get jeans to work 100%, but the cargo pants from Old Navy are perfect. The first time I put them on, I thought "wow, I have never worn pants that fit right until this moment"
