Saleswoman: May I help you? Cathy: Yes. Remove all the bikinis from your store and destroy them! Saleswoman: Hoo, boy! I understand! Bikinis aren't for everyone! Cathy: Exactly my point. Bikinis look good on 1% of the female population. Why do they take up 80% of the swimwear department? ...Why does every magazine cover, summer billboard and travel ad star the bikini? How are the other 99% of us supposed to feel?? We just spent eleven months committing to healthy food habits and rejecting the image of the scrawny supermodel! How many thousand times can we see the bikini portrayed as the "norm" before we start to doubt the beauty of our "natural healthy female figures"? American women dieted for 100 years! It's your turn! Put the mall on a diet and LOSE THE BIKINIS! LOSE THE BIKINIS! LOSE THE BIKINIS! Saleswoman: June 4, and things are already heating up in the swimwear department.

Try Lands End. They have all sorts of suits to fit different body types.
@Susan Newman – these strips were made years ago and gocomics is just going in order. The dates and subjects may be incorrect sometimes.
