A new survey suggests that women in the UK who wear a size 14 (US size 12) are the happiest — with career, love life, friendships, etc.
Special K’s poll of 3000 women found that for the most part curvier — but not huge — women are happier (but greater happiness isn’t directly proportional to a higher weight).
And for the record, Marilyn Monroe, above, is said to be a size 12 by today’s standards, but I don’t know how happy she was.
The results are as follows:
HAPPIEST DRESS SIZES
1. 14 (US 12)
2. 12 (US 10)
3. 8 (US 6)
4. 16 (US 14)
5. 10 (US 8 )
LEAST HAPPY DRESS SIZES
1. 24 (US 22)
2. 20 (US 18)
3. 22 (US 20)
4. 6 (US 4)
5. 18 (US 16)
