Yes to all of that - so funny it hurts! And never mind bathing suits, the rest of today's fashions are a nightmare of thin, stretchy clingy things that emphasize every bulge. Back when I wore a size 8 (ages and ages ago) wouldn't you just know that the stores were full of things that were loose-fitting, with immense shoulder pads and big, baggy sleeves!

[QUOTE=Ditter43;6073317]We can thank Roberta for this funny one!!


Oh yes, everytime I see me in a bathing suit, (believe me is maybe twice in three years), all I see is a sausage with ends cut off. Bulging from the top and the bottom! My daughter says, oh mom the thong underwear is so comfortable.?? I say you don't want to see cottage cheese strung up, nor do you want therapy for ever because ya can't un see some things! Lol

I'm still laughing and that is because I can truly relate to this story!! Ever so true and related ever so well.

Oh, I know, and it so un-flattering, but women wear it! That's why I decided to learn to sew, I want to make clothes that are not see-through, and fit well!
