I’ve noticed something, and it’s so contradictory in truth.  I mean it.  Honestly, it seems like there are more obese men than women.  It shouldn’t be that way, and they turn overweight usually when they get married or sometimes before.  But the reality is that men actually not only have an easier time losing weight, their bodies require less fat and burn fat at a higher rate, and yet they’re the ones that get fat usually, they’re the ones that have greater weight issues than we do?  How does that work?  Women go through pregnancy, women go through menopause, what exactly o men go through in terms of weight causing issues that would contribute to greater overweight problems and otherwise obesity?  I have yet to find anything.  I mean I’m sure they have thyroid disorders, but women have higher rates of it.  So again, I fail to see a valid excuse in general.  All in all, I’m waiting to figure out why.  I mean some men stay in shape or just not overweight, good for them.  But frankly men also make up a smaller part of the population than women and yet they are making up a significant portion of those who are overweight.  All of these contradict what you would expect common knowledge to show.
