Do Skinny Girls Have More Sex?

Now here's a debate to get folks talking! A report recently taken by Lighter Life, a weight loss specialist, found that a high BMI correlates to a lack of sex, thus proving that thin women get it on more often.

Specifically, the report stated that 60 percent of size 8 women (UK size 8, that is, which equates to a US size 4) did the deed once a week or more, whereas 50 percent of their slightly heavier counterparts (UK size 12, or US 8) got horizontal that often. And, of women who wore a size 24 (US 20), just a third were getting busy weekly.

So should we all start dieting to rev up our sex lives? Probably not, seeing as how just a couple of months ago, another report made waves by saying that overweight women were more sexually active. To be fair, that study looked at whether or not a woman had ever had sex, rather than how often.

This all got me thinking -- are you more likely to initiate sex with your partner when you're at your fittest? Or doesn't it matter to you? Let me know in the poll, or leave a comment below!

Does your weight affect your sex life?
Yes -- I'm much friskier when I'm feeling fit.	163 (59.7%)
Yes -- I'm actually more into sex when I have a little extra meat on my bones.	24 (8.8%)
Nope. My sex drive stays the same, no matter what my weight is like.	54 (19.8%)
No clue -- my weight doesn't fluctuate.	32 (11.7%)

Even though this question was posted under the "Do Skinny Girls Have More Sex?" article, personally, I would have to answer a definite YES!! About a year ago I gain 30 lbs. and due to my self-consciousness, I don't initiate sex as often. My wife says she doesn't care, but I do!!

I must agree that the bmi must have something to do with the sex drive. Most of my life I have been a very sexual person, but lately, I'm lacking. All I can do is hope that it will pass and my wife will hold on until then. I am working on correcting things at the moment. I am dieting, exercising and sticking to it this time.

At this time, all I can do is hope she will hold on! Sorry I let it get this far baby!

Most black girls are fat and they all have babies. It's obvious that chubby chicks get lots of dick too!

Back when I was obese, I initiated way more sex because I figured I should be getting some form of physical activity. Now that I get physical activity in other ways, I don't feel like initiating sex at all, and being more physically attractive means that I feel much more confident about rejecting advances. (I don't like sex.)
