The federal government is spending nearly a half a million dollars to find out why obese teenage girls have a hard time getting dates.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded a $466,642 grant last week for the study, which will examine whether social skills have an impact on why obese girls have fewer dating experiences than their less obese counterparts.
“Mounting evidence demonstrates that weight influences intimate (i.e., dating and sexual) relationship formation and sexual negotiations among adolescent girls,” the grant’s abstract states. “Obese girls consistently report having fewer dating and sexual experiences, but more sexual risk behaviors (i.e., condom nonuse) once they are sexually active.”
“The conceptual framework that has guided this research presumes that differences in the social skills for relating to peers and intimate partners along with differences in the relationship experiences of obese and non-obese girls account for these differences,” it said.
“However, no studies have actually examined whether the interpersonal skills and intimate relationships of obese and non-obese girls differ.”
Professors at the Magee-Womens Research Institute and Foundation in Pittsburgh will try to answer this question over the next four years. The end date for the project is listed as May 2018.
I remember an old saying:
Dating a fat girl is like riding a moped
They both are fun but you wouldn’t want your friends to see you with one.
“They both are fun but you wouldn’t want your friends to see you with one.”
LOL My friends love me and would not care, moped, Vespa, fat girl!
Ping.
You’ll need to stretch that into about a 60 to 90 page report filled with charts, graphs, and tons of jargon.
“Hey I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew love before I left my nursery
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman, you made a bad boy out of me!”
...good ‘nuff?
Because they have edzackery disease.

Fixed that for you.
My research ended last Christmas and has been published. Basically, my findings indicate that on 11 out of the 12 days of Christmas here are two turtle doves. Coincidentally, all of those days include one partidge (in a pear pear) as well.
maybe they smell of cabbage
Outstanding
I was at Disney World over the weekend, hadn’t been there in about 10 years.
The “Skinny” problem has definitely been solved.
However, the “Cretins with with really bad tattoo’s and why they got them” problem is almost as serious as Ebola and should be good for a 15-20 million dollar research grant.
They could have gotten them a lot of “dates” by spending that money on “beer googles” at some local bars.
We’ve spiralled down a long way when a statement like this can be made in such a matter of fact way with not even a hint that maybe, just maybe they are looking at something as the new preferred normal when an ounce of logic tells you that this should never be the case. Intimate sexual relationships and adolescent girls (or boys) don’t belong in the same sentence unless it’s in a negative connotation.
No kidding, considering how many FReepers shout "get her a cheeseburger" at a pic of a lean, athletic girl, I'm sure there are plenty of chubbo fans here.
‘zackly.
I’ll look at a woman with curves twice before glancing at a thin one. A proper back porch is a must...
More fat chicks than guys into BBW.
Feds can send a check to me for the time I spent on this analysis, say, $19.95?
Maybe its cause fat girls smell like fish.
It's a head-scratcher.
