Re: why?
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.

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.

Re: why?
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 : )Originally posted by dotsamanthaI voted 4

Re: why?
Oh baby, you are definitely man enough. Who else could juggle all these women with such finesse?I am beginning to feel as if i am not a real man ;-)
I voted for #4 b/c it's funny. But the same way men don't tend to ask for directions or read the instruction manual, I think it's the same for weight loss support. (Present company on this board excluded, of course). My darling husband will skip lunch or not eat cookies for a week or something and then he's fine. It's done. Like, what's all the fuss about - it's easy. Heee.Female, 46yrs, 5'3"

Re: why?
It let me vote for two different answers. That's never happened before and I've tried LOL. I voted for the first one because I think more women have weight issued then men. and you can bet I voted for that last one. What man wouldn't fear that striking bod. Speaking of which, Rich when are we gonna get some full body pics from you? You know I have to give you a hard time....Sorry Sweety

Re: why?
I don't see what I would think it would be.
Women are more nurturing and caring and more open about supporting each other and men!
