Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

And let's not forget, before KY became widely available, Vaseline was the personal lubricant of choice!!

I wonder if the people who decide who's fat are straight men, because most men I know look at models and go "ick."

nope, it's other women. Just like women don't dress for men, they dress for other women.

Are Aussie sizes 8-12 smaller than US sizes 8-12, because I'm thinking maybe one of those women is a size 8, and the other two look like size 6.

Hard to tell I think. I was reading about the "zaftig" PR model that got Allison booted and Allison swore she was a size 10. She just didn't seem that much bigger than the others, who I assume are in the 2-4 range.

When standing next to the other models, she was bigger than the others, but not "zaftig" as Tim described her.

Oh, she clearly wasn't "zaftig" (which I think he was using as a euphemism for "bigger than the others") I just meant that she didn't seem that many sizes bigger. That (and seeing The Devil Wears Prada ) made me wonder if I had any idea what each size really looks like.
