Being underweight often carries similar health problems as being overweight; if you're 6 feet tall and only weigh 120 pounds, something's probably wrong. Now, I know men and women's bodies are affected differently by this, but the basic principle still holds. I'm just tired of seeing super-thin models who wear a size-E bra; the proportion's just disturbing. Marilyn Monroe was a size 14, and she's still admired today.
