That's the stupidest thing I heard in a while. I know over here they have restrictions about fat people adopting babies, which I always found an odd one to comprehend.
I'm glad it won't affect me, because one of my pet peeves is the fact that my favourite brand of thick black opaque 70 denier tights cost 20% more in the 'extra' size (this doubles as extra long and extra wide - I'm a bit of both really) than the small, medium and large sizes. Even though I worked out there is a greater difference in the amount of nylon used between the small and the large, than the large and the 'extra' and yet the large tights wearers don't get charged more than the small ones. So yes, glad this pay cut won't affect me as maybe it would give me even less cash to spend on tights (and let's face it autumn and the season of cute boots and short skirts is nearly here! Yay!
