Beauty of Yesteryear

Ran across this on Big Fat Deal, pictures of Miss Universe contestants back in the day. These women, compaired to modern 'standards of beauty', look healthy and are still beautiful. I'd love to see some full body pics, in the headshots, the women have round plump cheeks, a hint of a double chin, and no visible collarbones. And they were considered the height of beauty in their day. We need to get back to this ideal, instead of the Twiggy image, and even Twiggy came out a few years ago and said she was sorry, that she wasn't healthy (major eating diorders!) and she was appalled at the deaths of young girls she's caused over the years. Fat is not a disease. Don't treat it like one.
