New study says men react to women's bodies like they do drugs and alcohol.
The more pronounced the waist to hip ratio the more the male brain mimics that of being high or drunk. Looking at pictures of rounded backsides, scientists say, instantly activates the brain's natural reward system.
Whether it's curves, legs or a nice booty, men are attracted to more than just skin and bones.
I went on a date the other week with a pair of hot Swedish volleyball players with galactic hoots and bodies so taut that quarters bounce off bellies. These buxom hotties could easily have graced the pages of Brodawg Magazine, posing in the rain, wearing only leather belts. As they were putting on their heels to join me in the champagne jacuzzi, it occurred to me that these phantasmagorical sirens weren't doing it for me. Then I woke up with both of my arms in my pant legs. Cursed margaritas, so tequila-y and delicious.
From attraction to hormones to erectile dysfunction, weight loss is a sex panacea.
Simply put, overweight people can count on having more and better sex if they lose weight. Weight gain causes a number of hormones to get all wacky and lower libido. It also is a leading cause of erectile dysfunction. Losing weight makes junk look more majestic. And obviously, feeling more desirable and fit definitely cranks up the confidence and that's the sexiest thing of all.
How overweight women manage sex, love—and stereotypes.
Last month during an intimate girls' night in, I publicly posed the question that many overweight women wonder but never say aloud: "Is someone only going to marry me to get US citizenship?" I don't mean to knock cross-cultural love, but the fear I'd always had confronted me a few days before. A woman I knew, a good-looking gal with a great job and also about a hundred excess pounds, just got engaged to a weird-looking guy who I don't think speaks English. And, apparently, my fears are pretty commonplace among bigger gals.
