Lose Weight, Gain Sex

Get out of the kitchen and into the bedroom

The New York Post reported today that thin couples have hotter sex lives, according to a recent Readers Digest poll. Forty-five percent of men and 46 percent of women believed that losing weight would improve their sex lives. I can’t say I’m completely surprised, although one quote in particular really stood out:

“Twenty-six percent of women who are overweight would much rather eat live bugs than let their partner watch them walk out of a well-lit room naked.”

Eek.

Some people may say though... that when a woman loses weight, she's more likely to get pregnant too.. I just lost 10 pounds and bam! I was pregnant. Happened to a friend of mine after she lost 30 pounds, too... so be cautious if you're losing weight.

I'd say that it obviously make you more sexually attractive then. I believe it also make US-OURSELVES, feel more sexual.

I read an article about four years ago(by some sex PhD.'s) that stated "Our ability to give and recieve sexual pleasure is directly related to how we view our bodies."

The other important part of the article, although not related to this topic (other than it is about SEX) is that: "Our ability to reach orgasm, is proportional to ---how much we can afford to feel vulnerable---since ability of orgasm is tied to an emotional release.
