Men are happier (and live longer) when married to this type of woman

Men are happier (and live longer) when married to this type of woman…or so this study says, anyway.

According to research from the department of psychology at UNAM, men who were married to (or in a relationship with) curvy women were TEN times happier than those who were with thinner women.

That’s right.

It was Argentinian newspaper Nuevo Diario who first reported on the findings from the research conducted by Dr Filemón Alvarado and Dr Edgardo Morales at UNAM’s department of psychology.

In fact, according to the study, men smile more when they are with curvier partners and were more likely to solve problems easier.

Why? Well, according to Alvarado and Morales, who alongside their team conducted the study, a higher BMI brings a better ability to be able to ‘anticipate and satisfy’ a man’s needs.

It could be viewed as controversial and we have to say we’re extremely sceptical about this particular research.

Regardless of this particular study, thigh gaps and washboard abs are never essential and no one should live thinking so which is a message we’re all about.
