re: #1090 nyc redneck

that’s a very good point.
the whole sizing thing is a ploy to sell clothes.
it’s ridiculous. until the 80’s women were normal sizes.
there was no 0.
and in the 50’s everybody’s mom was a 10 or 12 or a 14.
marilyn monroe was a size 14. today that would be 4.

I’m not so sure I believe a 14 of the 60’s corresponds to a four today. Do you have a link for that?

I agree women’s sizes are ridiculous, but then I’ve always been large. Never smaller than a 10.
