Over 577 issues, the models became taller and their waist increased, while their hips
became narrower and their bust became smaller.


Some researcher must have misplaced a decimal point on those breast measurements.
Or confused the units (mixed up centimeters and inches).

Otherwise, how would they explain the silicon revolution?

Actually, I could believe the absolute average breast size may have fallen...
but not as much as the other two dimensions of the famed three-number measure of
the female figure.
Thusly, my guess would be that what has happened is that today's average female has much
closer to what a LOT of guys are looking for...an figure with a "cinch" at the waist,
an obviously feminine chest, and a shapely, but reasonably-sized "caboose".

OK, so I'm a pig. But I'm being honest about the way I've seen this evolve over the
last two decades...

Even with the internet, Maxim is still (ahem) on the rise:

"But Maxim isn't far behind. Introduced in 1997, Maxim's circulation started around 500,000. It is now at 2.7 million, making it the second-most-popular monthly men's magazine in the nation. Stuff is No. 3 at 1.1 million."

Hey thanks! After that first one didn't work, I went back to google and had a hard time even finding full-bodied pictures of her such as you found, so I just gave up. It was the first time I ever tried to post a picture. I'll have to learn HTML.

GoGo Belinda was dimply with baby fat. Solo Belinda was all angles and hard. Saw them a couple of years ago. Belinda isn't aging too gracefully.
