Liz Smith: Women's Bodies, From Jessica Simpson and Miley Cyrus to the Octuplets

Skinny girls might photograph well but are not attractive in person. Plus, it’s winter, the perfect time to plump up. I have a proven theory on this, based on my analysis of squirrels at the University of Michigan. It’s on my blog: http://fortyfabulous.blogspot.com/2009/01/squirrel-theory-dictates-ok-to…
