Fat is a class issue. I've heard it said - and though I haven't factchecked this, it sounds entirely right from what I've seen - that there isn't a single fat CEO of a Fortune 500 company. And contrast slender marathon runner Robert Rubin with the 300-lb steak and wine for breakfast J.P. Morgan. Urban yuppies of both sexes are generally fit; plumpies are rare.
