Supersizing of America & a rant

[Veronica]

one thing I've noticed that's gone the opposite spectrum is underwear. For a long time I could never find panties that fit me without looking like granny undies up to my belly button. Then there were all sorts of low-rise panties that fit so well. Now they're back up higher again, and there's no way I can wear them without the tops showing up past the jeans waist. The only ones that fit are from Pink these days.

Try Patagonia's Barely Bikini.

It's most depressing in the children's sizes.

I started buying "youth" T-shirts at the races several years ago - more for the length than the size, and sometimes because I just liked the design better or they were sold out of small adult sizes. Eight or nine years ago when I first started doing that, I could squeeze into a youth XL.

Lately, Medium children's T-shirts just hang on me.
