I mean, consider that Spanish princess, Isabella Claire Eugenia, who was tall and thin, and was a big fan of Rubens when she was in the Netherlands, and he painted so many Ruben-esque women. Well nowadays, it seems like society believes the richer people deserve to have the look thinner eating disorders, and the poorer people deserve the look fatter eating disorders. I mean, I suppose that's not entirely accurate, probably? Because some poor people can have skinny genetics. But I still feel like there's a ring of truth to it.
