Men are disgusting. Two friends and I went out for drinks recently, one of us wearing a wig. All the men's eyes were glued like hunting dogs to the extremely thin waif-like one of us, with pronounced cheekbones and dry, papery skin. Because she was "thin." She'd just finished her last chemo, which we were out celebrating. There was nothing wrong with the other two of us, either. Just not stick-thin, in our mid-sixties. My friend is doing much better now, but it will take a while to recover some of the weight she lost during cancer treatment.
