Women's fashions are nuts, and the 'ideals' that women are expected to reach for are crazy. It pushes everything to the opposite extreme of wanting women to be unhealthily underweight. Yes, starve yourself down to a size 8, don't worry about the long-lasting health effects of doing that to your body.

Marilyn Monroe was a size 16 by the standards of her time, with the adjustments to dress sizes in the intervening period, she comes out as a 12-14. But todays fashion mags would doubtless consider her something of a porker.

Elizabeth Hurley claimed that if she was as fat as Marilyn, she'd kill herself. I wish she would after that comment.
