So now i am having trouble wearing the jeans i usually wear. Most of them are 32-30 waist and skinny leg for men. I can't get them pass my thighs my waist is fine it actually shrank but my thighs are to thick now to get them up. I really didn't want to have to go and buy new clothes yet so should i start wearing girl jeans or just get baggy leg men jeans.

I think they should be girl jeans. From your avatar picture, male fail is in your near future.

Many of the women's jeans include just a touch of spandex or similar stretch material, which does wonders for getting those skinny jeans on. They may look a little baggy in back until you've... Erm... Redistrubuted some body fat. ;)
I'm an older person, and I'm wearing Gloria Vanderbilt jeans ("Amanda" mostly) every day, even when presenting as male. I usually have my shirt hanging out so folks don't see my waistline. (Wheee! No estrogen yet and I'm 38-29-36. Looks odd on a 'male' chassis.)

I always had a problem with men's jeans, I just couldn't find one that fit correctly. And then I bought my first women's jeans some years ago and I realized I should have done this much earlier, they just fit me naturally. From that point on I only buy women's jeans and jeggings. They fit great and I feel great in them, I think that will be the case with you as well, so go and get some jeans that fit! ;)

I adopted girl jeans way back in my androgynous times 20+ years ago. In my opinion far superior to the choices they have on the other side of the store.

OMG get girl jeans, girl! They make your butt look so good! I mean, I'm talking to myself when I say that, butt it'll probably be true for you too.
Tell you what to do, though. Value Village is a girl's best friend -- set yourself a budget, and treat it as a clothing swap with a $30 entry fee, perhaps. I rarely get anything over $10, and usually set the bar at $5 and still find amazing stuff. Their variety is incredible, and it's fun to make a day of it.
The extra t was an mistake, but how could I fix that.
