Seriously, I think US News and World Report just ran an article on the preponderance of long-fingered dikes assuming roles in middle management.

Well, I guess I was considering that women of yesteryear seemed to have significantly more strength and size, while men were significantly smaller. Take for example photographs of women from the late 1800's, early 1900's. The normal body type for non-aristocratic women seemed to be more bulky, whereas the normal body type for most men seems to be smaller, more slightly.

It appears as though while women are migrating to a more equitable role in the corporate work environment, they have become physically smaller. Men, by contrast, have become more muscular and physically larger.

Is that really true? It has been my observation that we all are just getting fat and lazy.



Re the smaller women thing: Remember, the late 1800's was before heroin addiction, or at least the appearance of heroin addiction, was considered "chic". And bulimia and other eating disorders in teen girls were pretty much unheard of.

So, smaller people have a tendency to gain more power?
