Some men like skinny gals and I can understand their need for 0-60 in 6 seconds or less speed.

I prefer a woman who's built to take it in all the right places for long term riding comfort.

see, I'd love to be one of those gals. I'm just built so wrong for it...LOL I have a body type that won't allow it (I forget what it's called, but when I do gain weight, it all goes to my waist).

The woman had tits, ass, and curves. Pretty much like a normal woman should.

I am skinny & I personally can not get any weight..
maybe its from my smoking habit, or some psychological stuff.. but in 5 years I am still at 55 kg.

on the other hand... I do not like girls (which when have some fricition with dont produce (squeaking sound) or (sparks) comming from that friction)..

Immagine 2 skeleton having sex on a roof mad of steel...... immagine that sound.... its pretty nasty

Hmm, not sure about that. We found a trunk with some of my mother's party clothing from the 50s that my grandmother had in storage.
My girl slipped right into the size 14 perfectly ... she wears a modern 14-16. We sold them.... Poodle skirts were no where near a look either of use liked. But, bobby socks and saddle shoes make for a cute "little girl" look

And "a perfect 10" originally was not the top of a sliding scale but saying a woman fit in the perfect dress size for the 50s.

Actually, that is correct. All the way through High School, I was a size 12. When I got to age 28, I was magically a size 8. Nothing had changed.

For a long time I beat up on myself. I was 36DD-28-38. Then I finally realized that someone out there was going to think I was sexy even if I wasn't a size 2.

As someone who spends a lot of her time collecting vintage clothing and reading about that era...Marilyn was about a modern day size 6/8.

Sizing is strange! When I was learning to sew and all that, I learned it big time, and as a collector of vintage clothing it's sadly true...

Love Marilyn!

Marilyn went through major weight fluctuations throughout her adulthood. Her heaviest was around: 140 lbs. ( around the time of her movie - Lets Make Love ) It is well known that this is around the time she started to abuse drugs/alcohol and started showing severe signs of mental illness. She also would take Thorazine to quiet the voices in her head - prescribed by her psychiatrist. When she would stop taking the Thorazine, her weight would go down.

Her height was 5'5. She normally weighed in between 115 - 125 lbs. Her measurements were: recorded as: In 1951 - 36 / 24 / 34. **** In 1955 her measurements were recorded as - 38 /23 /36.

If a woman doesn't have curves, how the fuck am I supposed to know where to put my hands and where to spank?
