""You done had a baby Miss Scarlett, you ain't never gonna be no 18 ½ inches again."
Gee, a women gain weight when she gets married...stop the presses.
>>> The researchers attributed the weight gain to cohabiting women eating unhealthier food because of their partner <<<
Are all our researchers this stupid?
So now women can complain that their husbands and boyfriends contribute to the obesity problem.
In addition to everything else which women complain about relating to the men in their lives, they can add this issue.
..and men gain 30lbs. ROFL
Have they dona a study on married men?
I won’t hold my breath waiting.
Is that overall or per year?
As always with stories like this, I can see my grandmother standing in front of me, smacking her palm against her forehead and announcing, “What, they needed college to find this out?”
There’s two things I won’t tolerate from a woman. Gaining too much weight and not being able to be trained to leave the toilet seat up. I also expect them to do their best to stay as pretty as when I married them. /s
Some of us guys like a little extra meat on the women.
That emaciated fishbone look doesn’t turn us on. Don’t misread here though—not into the blubbery whale look either... just a few ticks to the right on the scale is
just fine.
considering most single women intentionally underfeed themselves because they have the mistaken impression that concentration camp chic is still in style, I’m glad to hear that married women are better-fed, even more so if they’ve a child to look after.
""You done had a baby Miss Scarlett, you ain't never gonna be no 18 ½ inches again."
Must’ve been some pot-bellied misogynist or some blue stocking half ton feminist that figured this out.
I’m fat, I’ll blame it on my husband and my babies! They shoved french fries, pasta with alfredo sauce, and biscuits slathered in lard down my throat!
Jeebus!
4 lbs thats a error in the scale. Can’t claim that for nine lbs. Babies add weight, wow who would have thunk it.
4 lbs? that’s it?
maybe they meant 4 stone. it is a british source afterall
If I were single again, put me squarely in the category of wanting a woman WITH CURVES!!!
Sounds like an abuse issue to me. Those partners holding these poor women down and shoving “unhealthy” food down their throats.
And really, gaining 10 pounds puts you at a health risk? I’m still trying to figure out the real agenda behind this article.
This study is just another stupid attempt to get people to abandon married life.
As a woman married 10 years, mid forties and has been with my partner for over twelve years I am the same or even lower weight then when I graduated from high school in which I was very slender then. Since I now lift heavy weights and do a rigorous resistance workout three days a week, eat well, and do my cardio four to six days a week, I am a size two as opposed to the size four when I graduated high school.
The point being that if a woman takes care of herself, commits to self care while also caring for her relationship she can look awesome hot. My husband likes. They must have studied only liberal women ;-D!!
Just because one is in a loving relationship does mean they literally must use this as an excuse to be a pig or let themselves go to pot.
Who is attracted to a dykey feminazi? Who would you rather? Sarah Palin or a heavy, dykey feminist who no longer cares for herself but uses her long term partnership as an excuse for looking super heavy?
Four lbs is nothing. It is when four turns into fifteen plus that this rationalization is just that a rationalization.
Not my wife...four kids later and she’s still wearing the same size clothes when I married her 31 years ago....
A size 3 at 5’5”.....
Yes Freeper ladies...it’s OK to hate her...
