When Global BC News’ chief meteorologist, Kristi Gordon,
was pregnant with her first child, she received countless letters
criticizing her choice in maternity clothes. “They either thought it was
too tight,” she explained.
“But it’s hard to not having something tight over a belly that’s
sticking out like this. Or they would say, I can’t believe you’re
wearing horizontal stripes, you look massive.

considerate. “It was horrible last time...I couldn’t do anything right
when it came to clothing,” she said. “So please be easy on me. It’s not
easy to find work clothes when your belly is out to there.”

“Nowhere
on North America TV have we seen a weather reader so gross as you,” one
letter said. “Your front end looks like the Hindenburg and your rear
end looks like a brick -- fill in the blank -- house. We now turn off
Globle [sic].”

“Buy
some decent clothes and have more respect for your unborn child. You’re
not the first pregnant woman. OMG,” another letter said.
