I used to believe that when I grew up, my legs would be slim and elegant and utterly hairless, with dainty ankles and pretty knees. All the women on TV had nice legs and breasts, I knew that I was going to get breasts, and expected to get nice legs too.
I got the boobs, but my legs are still as stumpy as ever!
