Normally Id tear into any non American for making a statement like that but in this case Chuck is sadly right. Too many Americans are way to &%$#ing fat.
No kidding. When I was in high school in the early 70s....maybe 1 in 50 girls were truly fat fat.
Nowadays, high school girls are much heavier overall....maybe 30% heavier....cup sizes are up correspondingly two.
father of 4 here including two average sized high school girls who are considered rail thin by their peers but would have been normal in my day.
