THIS woman always considered Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe to be
voluptuous, since that's what Madison Avenue (and older men of her
acquaintance) called them.  However, THIS woman also considered Jayne and
Marilyn to be fat.  Not as fat as some, perhaps, but still fat.  Some of
Rueben's women are fat and some are voluptuous, and some are both.  Some
men think that, too.  I asked.
