But what I mean is why are women more sensitive about their weight compared to men? Shouldn't the gender who gets the more perks, be less sensitive about their weight, because they are getting more perks?
Oh that's also simple, A dating coach named Kevin Samuels (whom I watch because his podcasts are hilariously funny) says in his experience society values a woman's looks more than anything else she brings to the table.
For that reason they are highly sensitive over factors that might devalue their social worth (like putting on weight), I know that sounds bad by Samuels does have a point.
And yet I see guys who have female partners that weight more than them but never the other way around, including friends, so it seems based on that evidence, perhaps Samuels is wrong, if it's never the way around, when it comes to looks? Or at least there seems to be some sort of hole in this theory or data?
