I agree that gap's boyfriend jeans were named so because they were cut more like mens' pants. I bought 2 pairs (one at gap, one in a thrift store) and I have to say they were the best-fitting jeans I ever owned. It is rather embarrassing to shop in the guys' section because guys' jeans fit better, and I was really glad gap marketed this product for girls like me who just don't like the other styles out there. The name was pretty stupid, but gap couldn't very well have called them "The Guy Cut" or something, because no one would have bought them.

Now I have to shop in the mens' section again :(
