No woman can be too rich or too thin. This saying often attributed with the late Duchess of Windsor embodies much of the【M1】______ odd spirit of our times. Being thin is deemed as such a virtue. The problem with such a view is that some peoples actually【M2】______ attempted to live with it. I myself have fantasies of slipping into【M3】______ narrow designer clothes. Consequently, I have been on a diet for the better—or worse—part of my life. Being rich wouldnt be bad either, but that wont happen if an unknown relative dies suddenly in some【M4】______ distant land, leaving me millions of dollars. Where did we go off the track? When did eating butter become sin,【M5】______ and little bit of extra flesh unappealing, if not repellent? All religions have certain days that people refrain from eating, and excessive【M6】______ eating is one of Christianitys seven deadly sins.

We have shifted down to thinness【M9】______ as our new mark of virtue. The result is that being fat—or even only somewhat overweight—is bad because it implies a lack of moral strength. Our obsession with thinness is also fueled by health concerns. It is true that in this country we have many overweight people than ever【M10】______ before, and that, in many cases, being overweight correlates with an increased risk of heart and blood vessel disease.
