What he is getting at is that properly fitting modern jerseys don't sag when you have items in the pockets. If they sag then the jersey is a size or two too large. So I would propose maybe just the last part - they fit how you like them.

I'd like to get a conventional handlebar bag like this:
https://lonepeakpacks.com/product/alta-handlebar-pack/
Is the mount safe for carbon bars?
Will it be stable on a rough, unpaved surface (including mountain bike single track)?

I wear Terry's Soleil jerseys - they aren't made to fit skin tight. Like I said, they fit the way they are supposed to.

So is it a requirement to be an ******* to be in the boy's club around here? Because I notice a lot of that, especially when answering newer cyclists questions. Just asking.
Where I live, we try to be encouraging and helpful to those who are just getting into the sport; we like to grow our community.

Basically, if you're asking a question (about anything, not necessarily cycling), don't then feel like you're expert enough to argue with the people responding to the question you had to ask because you didn't know. Very circular.

When newer cyclists ask questions, and then proceed to argue about the answers, then yes, you get that.

rubiksoval is correct - generally, newer members with questions are treated well except when they push back on answers that they don't want to hear.

If you're talking about responses to you, specifically, you might have a point if your responses were free from snark... but they weren't.

Totally off-topic, but you guys don't know how lucky you are that you don't have to walk through fire to get 50 posts just so you can get into the hidden forum with people of your own gender. Oy vey.

Actually they weren't - trust me, you'd know if I was being snarky. And I say that with no snark at all.

Most don't even know about the super secret forum, others have heard only whispers. Probably makes sense, though - without some kind of gatekeeper, I'm sure there'd be some creepers lookin' for "fun."
