seems a few people have taken offense to my inferring a size 12 is big. One male even pointed out that Marilyn Monroe was a size 14. Now, I would agree with you that size 12/14 is small if I lived on Samoa. But I live right here in the good old 48 Contiguous, where binging and purging is a way of life. American women do not want to be double digits in size. Just ask any woman what size they want to be. Invariably they will say five or seven. Wealthy will be the person that opens a store for Lane Bryant-sized women but sews size 7 tags on all the clothes.
On the flip side of that, I have taken offense to some of the people that told me I’m ugly and a loser. All I have to say is you’d be ugly too if you had a huge white blotch on your face. And as far as being a loser, I think you have it all wrong. I am such the winner. It isn’t every day an average guy can make 50,000 people laugh. Thanks to each and every one of you from the heart of my bottom.
they lowered what the sizes are, over the years. So people don't think they are too fat because of a high dress size. Marilyn would be a much smaller size, now.
Actually, 1 thing i noticed when i moved to the US a few years ago... the clothes are made BIG so i started buying a size or 2 smaller than i would at home...it's true..makes ya feel tiny
fucking sizes... the shitty thing is that different brands make the same sixe diferently... so a 12 in brand X maybe be bigger than size 12 in brand Y... stupid clothing assholes... but that's still an ugly dress...
