Pictures of Emm
As a teenager, I was almost as fascinated by Emma’s pelvis as I was by her bust. In terms of her vital statistics (which was the universal measure of female attractiveness in those days) what Emma lacked in the tit-department, she more than made up for in her waist-to-hip ratio. A diary entry records that as we walked through the park with my arm around her waist, I could simply rest my hand casually on her hip and it wouldn’t slip off. When I finally saw her partially naked, lying on her back, “her belly lay like a broad plateau between the mountain ridges of her hip-bones.” [If I was so obsessed with topology, I wonder how I came to fail A-level Geography?] Emma’s Aunty Gwen told her that she had “child-bearing hips”. As things turned out, we could only afford to have one child - not the soccer-team Emma’s mother warned her she would have if she married me. Emma’s hips a more heavily upholstered now than they used to be, but I am still fascinated by them.
