Seeing Double

After work today I took mom down to "our bench" to sit and people watch for a while.  The usual cast of characters were accounted for.  A combination of families on a stroll, people rushing home from work, day drinkers calling it a day,  Pub crawlers looking for their first stop and joggers jogging.
A pretty 30ish woman walked by in a white dress.  Her lower body was somewhat disproportionate to her upper body.  As she was walking away this became even more obvious with significant posterior motion in her walk.   About 5 minutes later another young woman with similar proportions but in a print dress approached.  After she walked by we noticed an almost identical sway.  Mom looked perplexed and after a few moments, said, "was that the same woman?"  I said, "no mom they just have the same affliction"
