The average weight of women in Britain is rising. In 1991, Miss Average weighed 10st 5lb, but today, she tips the scales at 11st.A stone is 14 pounds, so 11 stone is 154 pounds. It was already absurd that British women weighed an average 145 pounds 20 years ago, and it's downright grotesque that they've managed to add nearly another half-pound per year. At this rate, women will have to start evolving wheels just to get around by the end of the 21st century.
Look at the pictures. Only the woman who is over six feet tall even has what can reasonably be described as a normal feminine body, and even she is a little on the husky side. And one has to cut the tall blonde a little slack, as she looks as her thunderous thighs are more the result of a brontosaurus heritage than dietary indiscipline.
The worst thing is that it is absolutely unnecessary for any woman to be that big. I know women in their forties with four, five, and even six children who weigh between 30 and 40 pounds less than the UK average. Nor is it any better in the USA; in 2002 the average weight of the American woman was 164 pounds, up from 140 in 1960.
