And on a similar note, I saw a clip of the 'Ellen' show today. Ellen (love her, funny as anything) was talking to Jessica Simpson. She (J.S) said that after the weight gain fiasco she went to, she went around the world to she how other cultures dealt with the notion that not all women should look like a twig. She said one tribe she was introduced to actually had a "fattening tent", where an engaged woman would go for 2 months to get as fat as she could get and then be married. She observed that in this particular tribe it was the ultimate compliment for a woman to be called a 'fat cow'.
Something else Ellen asked her about, and she admitted to, was that she doesn't brush her teeth and she doesn't have bad breath. I think I'll let y'all discuss the thought of something like this amongst yourselves.
