Why Didn't They Just Ask Me?
Why didn't they just ask me? I could have told them why overweight women have more sex. Because when guys are in the bed, they want something to hold onto. Plain and simple. All the scientists get it all wrong. Ask a woman next time and they will tell you. I have NEVER met a man who wanted some skinny woman in the bed. Of course they are out there for sure but I've never met one.
Do Overweight Women Skip Sex? Fat Chance!
Overweight and obese women have more sex than skinny types, a new study suggests.
The research, announced today, is based on data on more than 7,000 women collected in the 2002 National Survey of Family Growth. The new analysis looked at the relationship between body mass index and sexual orientation, age of first intercourse, number of partners and frequency of intercourse.
The results seem to contradict stereotypes that overweight and obese women have less sex. If anything, the researchers said, the opposite seems to be true.
Researchers suspect the stereotype could mean overweight women get different messages than thinner women from physicians regarding pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease prevention, and that their sexual behavior might therefore vary.
"Some medical practitioners may not do appropriate follow-up with women who are overweight; they might assume they aren't having sex unless they are told otherwise," said Oregon State University Professor Marie Harvey, a specialist in women's sexual and reproductive health issues.
"Our analysis demonstrated that obese and overweight women do not differ significantly in some of the objective measures of sexual behavior compared to women of normal weight," said Harvey's colleague, Bliss Kaneshiro, an assistant professor at the School of Medicine at the University of Hawaii. "This study indicates that all women deserve diligence in counseling on unintended pregnancy and STD prevention, regardless of body mass index."
The survey relied on self-reports, however, and other studies have found that people often lie in sex surveys. The results were detailed in the September issue of the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology. A different study in 2006 concluded that obesity, as well as smoking, does curb sex.
Kaneshiro said the data showed that overweight women were more likely to report having sexual intercourse with a man, even when researchers controlled for age, race and type of residence. Ninety-two percent of overweight women reported having a history of sexual intercourse with a man, as opposed to 87 percent of women with a normal body mass index.
"These results were unexpected and we don't really know why this is the case," Kaneshiro saidHappy Halloween!
I have sadly decided to dress up as a Helix Database Developer. But maybe next year (that's what I say every year). But to all of you dressing up and having fun today, grats!!

This Gives Me Another Reason To Hate UK
LEXINGTON — An effigy of U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee and an African American, was found hanging from a tree on the University of Kentucky campus this morning, according to university officials.
UK President Lee Todd said he was alerted about the incident by a professor who was riding his bicycle to campus around 7:30 a.m.
The effigy was found on Rose Street, near the university’s Mining and Minerals building.
Officers with both the University Police Department and the Lexington Police Department are investigating the incident, and the Secret Service has been notified, Todd said.
Todd said it is not known whether a student or someone else was responsible.
“It’s a very embarrassing situation that has happened on our campus, regardless of who did it,” he said.
Todd referred to the incident as a “despicable act.”
“We certainly believe in political expression, just not in this form,” he said.
Anyone with information about the incident is being asked to call the UK police department at (859) 257-1616.

I Have An Overload of Cuteness for You
J, I know you will probably already see this, but for everybody else, I have an overload of cuteness. Everybody knows that I want a dog but I have to make sure I can provide for a dog before I get one. The next best thing? Watching Shiba Inu puppies grow up. And literally, watching them grow up. Below is a live feed for these puppies. Adorable! I haven't watched them much, but just like babies, they sleep a lot. So enjoy the puppies!

Check Me To See If I'm Breathing
Last night, J was scared that I was dead because when I'm asleep I don't move and I don't breathe deeply at all. Keep checking, baby. You have to save me if I die.
