I went with option 4 also, purely for a laugh.

Honestly though I suppose its generally because women care more about their appearance? I dont know, its just a guess really.

I think women are more likely to communicate about their lifestyles.

I voted for fear of Rich, but I think the real reason is that men are less likely to seek out a weightloss support network. Their loss!!

Default Re: why?

My husband would never admit he is overweight but he will skip a day of eating or not eat until dinnertime. He never makes a reference of trying to lose weight, whereas I say "No, I can't eat that, I'm watching what I eat now." So, I think women are just willing to be transparent with issues, and men have been programmed to not show feelings about many things, including weight issues. Congratulations to those men who are willing to be real with life's issues.

I agree with this, and also that I think more women search out solutions to their weight problems. I think in general, when men decide they need to lose weight, they just start working out and no eating dessert : )
