In the last 48 hours, because of the death of Tim Russert, I have
watched or read news stories about the importance of hip to waist, or
waist to height ratios.
So, which one is it? Hip or height? Both? The best reading? Take the
average?
Secondly, I have seen and read reports that the waist is measured 1)
at its smallest point, just above the belly button in many people 2)
at the belly button and 3) just above the hip bone which is just
below
the belly button. Um, so which is it? This all seems to wildly
imprecise.
And thank you news media for being so consistent in the information
you disseminate, jeeze. |
