Study Claims Women Are Fatter Now Because They Do Less Housework

Man, when you think about it, you don't even see those pinched waistlines on Mad Men as much anymore. The female characters have all sort of moved into the era of the mod shift dress (Betty and her muu-muus being the most extreme example). Maybe it's because they gained weight from all the chores they don't do anymore! Ahhhh! Women's waistlines have reportedly grown six inches since the 1950s, before there were space-agey $200 Shark Navigator Vaccuums to buy in order to simplify the gruntwork of chores. Housewives 60 years ago would burn at least 1,000 calories keeping house. They also consumed 1,818 calories a day compared to our 2,178 now, thanks to rationing and the lack of fast food ubiquity. End result? Ladies of yore had a 28" waist compared with today's 34". Now pass me that chocolate sundae, Sally.

So remember, I don't like mayonaise.

I know it says housework, but I'm a man, damn it. I pee standing up and everything. (if my painkillers let me.)

I can't be bothered to provide cutting edge commentary. Because the cutting edges are in the kitchen, where the women are.

I saw a fat black man the other day. His owner must be pretty negligent- clearly he is being underworked.

Katana swords, which were folded over one thousand times and were used by the brave and noble samurai who believed the only true love was between men and that women were not to be trusted.

I can't even stand without being in pain, do you think I'm making my own sandwiches?

By the same logic, men who are... larger shall we say... needs to do more work as well.


Seriously, that is not how one works with the scientific method.
And make your own damn sandwich.

I think the problem is that sandwiches are too easy. I demand a collection of baked goods and exquisite dinners.

I don't know why this needs to be sexist, basically the exact same thing is true of men.

Men are fatter now because, in the traditional (sexist) gender role, they're bringing home the bacon, which is now mostly done on computers and shit rather than working in a factory or whatever which is better exercise.

The point is, everyone's fatter now. Especially Seil.

Because you can't sensationalize it if you just present the basic/generic facts. It's like that study that was all "WATCHING TV IS KILLING YOU!!" where the actual facts of the study just said "If you lead a sedentary life your health will suffer."

Also how was this a study?

It seems like you could've just had some dudes sitting around and they were like, hey women do less housework now

Maybe that's why they're fatter

Dude, woah


Also I imagine these guys being stoners



ALSO also the comments on this site are stupid. I have a small waist, blah blah! Hey you shouldn't talk about your measurements it might make other people FEEL BAD WAAAAAAH

I pretty much just found this piece of sexist "trivia" online, and thought humorous shenanigans would happen if I posted it. I was wrong. People called me fat. They expressed dissapointment in me. They called me fat. They posted Youtube clips. They called me fat.

It's glandular, you buttheads.

I'd just like to point out (Without having clicked the link), this is on Jezebell, which I'm pretty sure is part of the Gawker media conglomerate, meaning that they get paid based on hits.

Meaning, they write sensationalist stuff that they want people to get mad at, to get paid a lot, because they share the link.

These are the same people who wrote an article about a famous Magic player saying, essentially, "EW OH EM GEE, HE WAS LIKE, SUCH A GEEK, BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T QUIT FOR ME, AND HIS ONLINE DATING PROFILE DIDN'T SAY HOW GEEKY HE WAS. IT WAS SO PATHETIC THAT HE WAS ONLINE DATING. PATHETIC GEEK. WHO I HOOKED UP WITH ONLINE.", for the exact same reasons. They want hits.

Ugh, yeah, I can't say I have any desire to support that sort of inane horseshit.

Link in OP changed to something more informative and spiritually fulfilling. Closing the thread because I'm pretty sure any value that could be obtained from "lol misogyny" has long since been drained away.
