Look at any photograph from the 1950s. A church social in a small town fellowship hall. Families gathered around a backyard barbecue on a Saturday afternoon. The local PTA meeting inside a brick schoolhouse. The women are almost universally slim. Fitted dresses, cinched waists, and not a single pair of yoga pants in sight. These women didn't have a Peloton in the basement or a calorie-tracking app on their phone, and most of them had never stepped inside a gym.
