Weight and marriage

July 25, 2011

Have sitcom producers been onto something, creating shows with the thin wife and heavyset husbands?

Turns out marriages tend to be happier and the partners both more satisfied when the relative weights are as such, according to research from the University of Tennessee.  The researchers speculate that looks and weight are more important to men than women — with men happy from the start of the relationship and going forward and women’s satisfaction growing as the relationship grows (and it grows even stronger with our hubbies satisfied).
