[quote=Anonymous]You've gotta look at media portrayals, too. Back then, you saw nice looking white people in ads and on tv and in movies. Now, the diversity is much more abundant, despite the pervasiveness of the skinny white blonde woman. That said, I'd still guess the average BMI was small in the 60s just because of portion sizes and proliferation of junk food. I'd also expect that the shrinking middle class has caused an increase in obesity among the poor. [/quote]
