> People changing size.

I was curious why I no longer was able to wear pants I wore in my 20s. I could not get them over my hips. It wasn't because I was getting fatter, my weight is about the same.

I was also intrigued by young men looking slim in the hips, and older men not.

So I looked it up.

Turns out that your hips grow wider with age. I'd never heard of this before! Though I did know one's ears got bigger.

Too bad my shoulders never get wider, and my height shrinks :-/

My feet have gotten considerably wider with age, too.

And that's why companies destroy unsold stock? How?
