And it takes years of female hormones to develop that fat distribution; teenage girls have very narrow hips, as reflected in the shape of "juniors" clothing.
(I don't mean to be insensitive by suggesting that you ladies compare yourselves to teenage girls, but unfortunately no matter your age, that's where you are in your physical puberty if you're currently transitioning.
Just as a reminder for thread purposes, it is also essential to remember that not every women has large hips. When I did some part-time work for a major retailer in the mid-90's, we had a pretty good number of women shopping in the Juniors department during the morning hours (ie. before noon). The kiddie crowd came in after school let out. I only wish it had been commission because my sales figures tended to be the best in the department because I related to the skinny adults (they tended to value the guidance of a ~30yo clerk working early than they would the ~20yo kids we had working at night).
Hip measurement should NOT be something that is viewed as a be-all, end-all and it, at least for me, is not something that would have me clamoring for additional surgical intervention just to make them larger.
