Not only does New Zealand have a female prime minister, 40% of its MP’s are women. Though given the vote in 1893, it was over half a century before the first female minister, Mabel Howard was appointed. Ironically, her ministerial achievements are less well remembered than the day she stood up in Parliament holding up two pairs of bloomers and demanding that sizes be standardised. Pictures show a waste bad variation of 6 inches between two pairs of extra large female attire.
Maybe there will be a time in the future when sizes on a garments are standardized. In the meantime, if I want to attain the male equivalent of the Liz Hurley figure I’ll apparently have to settle for a lettuce leaf and a glass of water for lunch. Just as long as I don't have to do as much running as 50% of New Zealanders appear to do daily.

I only walked out onto a hotel corridor to find two joggers trying to trample me down.
