Tuesday, July 05, 2005A national poll of more than 2000 men asked whether they considered themselves underweight, normal weight, overweight or obese. Just one per cent considered themselves obese and 39 per cent said they were overweight - but national statistics show that 65 per cent of men are actually overweight or obese. The vast majority - 54 per cent - considered themselves a normal weight and six per cent thought they were underweight. I've noticed that about men. Women tend to overestimate their degree of "overweightness" (for lack of a better word) - but a beer-belly toting man will have not a clue that he's overweight. He will, in fact, freely criticize his wife's weight. Why is that? posted by Sydney on 7/05/2005 12:30:00 PM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
