Gentlemen may prefer blondes, but stressed men prefer heavier women -- at least according to a new study.
In this study, published Wednesday in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers at the University of Westminster in London subjected 41 men to a stress-inducing task. After this task, the researchers asked the men to rate the attractiveness of female bodies ranging from emaciated to obese.
Compared to a control group of 40 men who did not undergo the stress task, the stressed men rated a significantly heavier female body size as the most attractive, and they rated heavier female bodies as more attractive in general.
"Our body size preferences are flexible and can be changed by environment and circumstance," explains Martin Tovee, one of the study's authors. "We need to understand the factors shaping body preferences."

No, I’m 67, but expect to easily make 96 or more.
Sounds like you’re doing just fine. Just don’t follow in your hubby’s tracks!
A 6 footer at 160 is still quite slim! (but she sounds like a keeper anyway)
Costs more to feed a heavy gal. Just sayin’
thinking thinking....
nope
not true.
She was such a naughty nanny!
They make the rockin’ world go ‘round...

Fixed it for ya.
For most women food is more important than sex. Sex with heavy women is not really that fun, there is a limit. A little overweight is one thing but rolling off a whale post coitus and wondering when you are going to hit the floor is not good.
This explains quite a few marriages. The wives are just trying to get their husbands more interested.

The learning curve? Get on it.

seems like a plus size (for those in rio linda, a FAT person publication) spin to give excuses to fat women for not being healthy.
That looks like a 10....on the Richter scale!
Don't you think people would be looking for protein (muscle) as opposed to fat?
I suppose if they put a skinny person, and a fat person, in a pot with a rock, a bit of Purslane, maybe some plantain leaves, and some road salt, the resulting soup would taste better than nothing.
You go first. ;-)
