Secretaries Stat Facts Spur Quirky Prophecy
The Dorset and Brassiere Association records show West Coast secretaries with the widest hips by two inches, New York secretaries with the narrowest hips but largest busts, and Texas secretaries longest waists by about one and a half inches. Projections to 2000 AD suggest taller, heavier secretaries with larger dimensions. Woodbridge says Secretaries Day is not a commercial idea, but ads may push sentimental gifts akin to Mother’s or Father’s Day.
