Cathy: 99% of all women are happier when our thighs and hips are covered. Where are the suits for us?? Saleswoman: For you we have little cover-up skirts. Cathy: We don't want to cover our suits. We want suits that cover us! Where are the suits that simply cover what 99% of us want to have covered? Saleswoman: We don't have any of those. Cathy: As usual, something for every body type except "female."

Even the suits from the 1960’s were much more flattering than the choices we get today. And men’s suits aren’t much better. Who ever thought that huge and baggy was flattering? Even men who are in shape don’t look good in them. Yuck.Why is it one extreme or another? What ever happened to generally flattering styles for most?Good morning, Cathy Clan! Happy Memorial Day, and thank you to the many courageous and selfless men and women who gave their life for their country!

I still think the clothes from the 40’s and 50’s were the most flattering to women, including bathing suits. Check out some of the movies from that time frame.

I wouldn’t go so far as saying 99percent.It never bothered me to show a little leg as long as there is reasonable muscle tone.In my opinion, it’s the jelly-roll bellies that need to be covered.Also agree, big and baggy doesn’t look good on anyone.

Am I just being an old fogey, or are bikini bottoms waaaay teenier today than those from the 70’s / 80’s?

Maybe something like this is more like what Cathy is looking for perhaps?!? ;-)

Hi, rgcviper!
Hello and Happy Memorial Day, fellow “Cathy” fans! While I hope everyone who has the day off is enjoying it, I also hope you’re keeping in mind WHY we’re celebrating it . . . and that’s due to all the brave men and women who have given their all to make all our freedoms possible. God bless each and every one of them!!!!!

Though probably not around when this strip first came out, swimsuits that cover these parts are now readily available: see http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/21/modest-swimwear—_n_1590746.html
A great relief for the Cathys among us!

[Sigh.] Once again, the [eye-roll] should do it.
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.

Cathy is so right!! Why would they ever try to please the women who are expected to buy those things?
