I don't ever wear women's jeans. To me they don't read male. I have gotten boy's 16 husky and these work. I can find jeans but other pants are hard to locate. I look for something with an inseam of about 29 or so. I can hem pants, but I dont' like to, can't say I do a very good job either.

They don't fit so well, but I have gotten pants from blair.com (US and probably CA). They have elastic waists with belt loops and also hidden elastic and that sort of thing. If you are a stocky build they might work. Read the reviews.
I don't think of them as 100% wonderful. But they do somewhat work depending.

I got an average waist size even for guys (I know my size in ladies too) I like guys pants more than ladies, but sometimes I look at the mens jeans and I just am like they seem almost exactly the same. I can't really find them not too long for me but I'm ok with them as long as they are around 30 in length.

Lands End offers custom hemming for a large portion of it's pants, for both men and women. The shortest inseam is 26" - good for short folks like me. The down side is that their pants don't fit me very well. The men's pants anyway. And the women's pants, even the really plain ones have crazy wide legs or other 'flair' that makes them so I can't wear them.

Now, as a person with a large body (for now), I have had incredible luck with Old Navy's loose fit jeans and chinos. They fit SO WELL. I do have to take them in to be tailored, but that's fine. They fit perfectly.

I want to second what Dee said. I have to roll up the cuffs on most of my pants, and even then, they don't stay and I end up walking on the backs of them. It occurs most frequently with jeans. Nearly all of my jeans end up terrible looking by the feet as a result. I typically end up taking either scissors or a knife and cutting off the damaged parts. It'd be nice if they just came in a 28" length, but it's hard to find any shorter than 30".

Yup. For me 32/30 or 32/31 jeans (m/f whatever, sometimes they are really the same...) would be the most perfect size ever, but such size does not exist, so it is 32/32 and then tailoring.

Strange because I go to wally world and get 38/28 jeans. I have to hunt a little bit but not a lot.

30 inseam is pretty normal.  Not sure who doesn't carry that though.
