Sexual needs - fat or thin men have a good sex life?

There is a saying “thin is the master of sex” to imply that thin men have a better sex life than overweight men. Even many people think that thin men will have larger “penis” and overweight men will have “small penis” and are not good at sex.

Indeed, there are many disadvantages and health dangers to obesity but it seems that the sex life of an overweight man is an exception.

According to one study, overweight men or those with a higher BMI had more sex than those who were underweight.

Scientists and researchers from Anglia Ruskin University in the UK have come to this interesting conclusion – that fat men have more sex than thin men – after analyzing almost 5,000 sexually active Britons. The study was published in the journal PLOS One.

According to the research report, it is surprising that overweight men have less problems with their appearance than thin men and that helps them to feel more confident in their sex life.

The researchers also found that overweight women were also 16% more likely to have sex than thin women.

Those who conducted the study concluded that overweight people are more likely to have happy and satisfying relationships.

“I believe this conclusion is because couples are satisfied and happy with their relationship, so they are more comfortable in the matter of appearance, they are no longer too focused on maintaining a slim figure to gain weight. attract a mate. Therefore, overweight people are more likely to have a happier relationship and… have sex more often,” said lead researcher Dr. Lee Smith.

Another study found that overweight men were less likely to have premature ejaculation and tended to spend more time in bed than lean men. This difference may be because overweight men tend to have higher levels of the female sex hormone estradiol, which slows down orgasm.

This news may make overweight men less stressed, but also do not underestimate the harmful effects of obesity. According to other studies, people who are overweight or those with a high BMI are more likely to have sexual problems.

According to a report published on WebMD, “up to 30% of obese people trying to lose weight experience problems with sex drive, libido, performance, or all three. These problems can be traced back to health problems arising from obesity.”
