They turn every person into their concept of a beautiful person.

But despite all the well intentioned remarks (you know you are really pretty, if you just lost a little weight....)I for one have always been comfortable with my body. My question is this?

Even heavy women (but confident) women could carry themselves off with poise and look absolutely beautiful if they want to. <BR/><BR/>I'm surprised by your story of getting poor service in stores though. Thats just poor store management!
