Fat ladies, are fat all around.
Although my wife reckons there's a stage at around 4/5 months, where it really is hard to tell the difference.Comment

Better to say, "I see you are pregnant, here, take my seat" every time.
If they are pregnant, they will be grateful.
If they are fat, they will feel embarrassed and go on a diet, lardy feckin hippos.
Whereas if you say, "I see you are fat, here, take my seat" then everyone if offended every time. Which is a thoughtComment
