Just a thought, but we might be worrying for nothing. As you can see from this photo of 1945 Miss America finalists, none of these women have thigh gaps. Not-a-one:
From left to right, we have 1945 beauty queens Lee M. Wieland (Miss Chicago), Barbara Lee Smith (Miss Detroit), Bess Myerson (Miss New York City), Phyllis Mathis (Miss San Diego), Gloria Naomi Bair (Miss Philadelphia), Claire Thibadeau (Miss Boston), and Frances Lanell Dorn (Miss Birmingham).

The picture above made it to the front page of Reddit today (simply titled “Miss America 1945 Contestants”) and I was pleased to see someone else commented on the post with the same thought I had:
“None of them are thin by today’s standards. Not a ‘thigh gap’ among them.”
