    How 1950s Housewives Kept Slim.

    That's very true, but there no reason why people cannot make time to do some other exersise these days like walking to shops more. it seams a little odd that they drive to shops then spend money and time at a gym, or just go for a walk at night.

    QUESTION: Popularity in FRANCE of 1930s-1940s vintage styles

    I agree , it's a very difficult subject in Europe 1930 to 1950 , if I meet any one from Europe I would not talk about that period to them at all unless they brought it up first.

    Is the powder room dying on it's feet.

    Yes that sounds like a good description of Britsh forums, they sort of feel they can say anything which often they would not say to any one in public, like using a new found fredom of speech and it does not matter if they offend any one becuse it's the internet and it's not real.
