Guest guest Posted September 2, 2002 Report Share Posted September 2, 2002 We were out to dinner last night, and my husband commented on how many more fat or obese women were in the restaurant and in the mall as opposed to the men. He asked why did we think that was. It was an interesting question, and I can't stop thinking about it. I said 1) that I wasn't sure that was true, and 2) if it was, I thought it was because women are taught to hate their bodies and start dieting at an early age, and dieting leads to eating disorders, regain, yo-yoing and obesity. Someone else at the table said that boys are more active and play sports while girls are more passive. I was wondering what you all think?
