Todays womanhood is caught in a trap of its own making or what we say own petard. It is female emancipation that has put us on diets and treadmills, consider that the more economic and political power women have acquired, the fewer clothes we have worn,the fewer clothes, the less friendly concealment. That is why our bodies, themselves, have come to be of such supreme and exasperating importance.Say what you will about corsets, they at least gave every woman a waist and made a pleasing contrast with zaftig hips.
