    Hard to believe, but this seems to be affecting large women's clothing, as well.

    I was in a store of a national large women's clothing retailer today, and apparently the trend is to now make large women's already large breasts even larger. The bras were so padded that they looked like they had been designed by the Department of Homeland Security as a safety device.

    I'll happily stick with my large body, small boobs, and non-padded bras, thank you very much.
