Why were people so freaking skinny in the 1970s?

They didn’t eat that much and they look hungry by how skinny they were. My dad was a teenager/young adult in the 1970s and he was skinny as hell. He was still thin but not like he used to be before he died. My grandma told his girlfriend to “fatten” him up and make sure he eats.

@Amylynne I bet skinny in fashion doesn't sell like it use to because the majority of the population being overweight is no longer relatable to skinny fashion..the markets targeted group is changing because the size averages have.
