[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there any other topic that brings out such disparate responses by gender as the overweight spouse? I’m at a loss to think of one. [/quote] Well first of all my answer is the same either way, you can’t make a person want to lose weight through comments. They have to decide. But second, it’s probably because our misogynistic culture makes women’s worth all about their sex appeal but the same is not true for men. So when you tell a woman she’s no longer sexually appealing you are saying she’s worthless as a human and the same is not true for men, who derive value from other things. Still, it doesn’t matter either way. Weight loss, and maintaining that loss, is extremely difficult and rare. It takes a lot of resolve and it has to come from within. [/quote]
