WTF ?!?
April Honey ... where did you get those stats from? I am Canadian, but have travelled all over the states too, and cannot recall in ANY state seeing a whole lot of short, chubby women ...
I could believe that 142 would be an average weight ... but NOT ON A 5'2" frame ...
There must be a whole lot of midgets hiding somewhere, that only come out at census time !!
I find that on "average", American women are a bit taller than Canadian women, and 5'6" or 5'7" would be about average here.
I personally like a girl with "a little bit" of extra meat on her ... (maybe packing an extra 10 or 15 lbs more than the AMA's Body Mass Index states is proper) ... I find nothing sexy about being able to count how many ribs a girl has ... and hitting tailbone is a bitch too !!!
I would take a girl 10-15 lbs. OVERWEIGHT, to the same girl 10-15 lbs UNDERWEIGHT anyday, as would many of my friends when the weight issue has come up ... but 5'2 and 142 lbs is too chubby! (unless she is one of these FITNESS fanatics on ESPN ... muscle mass weighs more than fat mass.)
