Men's taste in women has changed dramatically over the past half-century, shifting away from girls with curves and big breasts towards the androgynous and the skinny.

I don't believe a word of that. Just because the media is trying hard to market anorexic women, that doesn't mean that men are preferring them. You have to hit what's pitched. If the media offers 99.999% stick women and two or three token fat women like Rosie O'Donut and that Manheim skiff, what do you expect to happen?

One day, FNC was showing some footage of a fashion show (not the Victoria's Secret show), and I couldn't believe the weirdos that were passing for models! They looked like pale, strung-out, sticks. I remember when models looked hot. Sure, they were on the thin side as well, but they did look like women.

There's always Kate Winslet. She's my favorite.
