    I think that is excellent!
    But my wife is a natural size 3 or 4, so I'm spoiled!

    She'd qualify just fine.

    They said that Kate Moss would have qualified and that the ban affected only30% of the models that were in the show last year... so that means that the other 70% are just right!

    No, because according to the BMI, to be anywhere under 18.5 on the scale is considered unhealthily underweight- while anywhere from 18.5-24.9 on the BMI rating system is normal. So many of hte models probably squeaked by by being only a tad over the minimum.
    Believe.

    No, they said Kate Moss wouldn't qualify:

    Would be pretty funny to see some of those disgustingly thin models start to cram their faces with food to make the cut.

    One of the fundamental problems is that cameras make people look heavier than they actually are, I saw Cameron Diaz in person and could not believe how skinny she was. I do not think most men go for the emaciated look, that perception was created by gay guys in the fashion industry. I applaud this decision. There is a level that is simply too skinny. I work out about 7-10 hours a week depending on surf time, and I watch what I eat meticulously. I do not think it is too much to ask women to do the same. Fitness competitors are better role models, they work their asses off but in a much healthier way. Working out constantly and eating a great diet are what should be encouraged, not starving oneself. However, many people want to eat anything and excercise 1 1/2 hours a week and not feel any pressure to look better. Unless you've got great genetics, that ain't gonna happen. Obesity is a much bigger problem in this country than anorexia.

    True, but the persistent media image of super-skinny as the only attractive body type creates a shitload of other problems. Such as the fact that the majority of totally attractive women of an average weight feel "fat" in some way or another. I happen to think that's a damned shame.

    I guess I just found out by listening to NPR that my wife is actually a 0p, or 'zero petite'.
    Or a size 2, I can't really tell.
    She would have been a four in high school, but now it all has changed....hunh?

    Does this make my 34" pants now a 30"?

    That's not the hard part. They're probably used to that.

    heh. I guess there is hope. I'm a size 6-7. (whatever that means.) so I'd probably considered morbidly obese by the fashion industry. Whatever. I'll eat my Oreo's and drink my beer and they can kiss my 1/4 Irish arse when I've got a nice 'base' layer for the season.


    Right after I get back from my run...

    Depending on the brand/model, yes. Some of Patagonia's 34" pants are 35.5" and their 33" are 34"
