| So if an 8 today is really a 12, then at a size 10 or 12 I'm really a size 14 or 16? That kinda stinks...
It's sad how obsessed people are today with being tiny. I feel SO sorry for my nieces, who are 15 and 13 and are SO afraid they'll get "fat." They're tiny now...in fact, the 15 year old is so skinny her parents and I wish she would gain weight. I was lucky enough to grow up when super skinny wasn't the totally "in" thing to be. "Big" was bad, but women weren't expected to be as small as they are today.
I'm always watching the girls when they spend any time with me, to make sure they aren't pushing themselves TOO much to be thin. It's stuff like this "plus size" model, at size 8, that just makes me sick. |
