Yet another reason why the health risks of obesity are overstated. My wife has 
always assured me that infidelity would likely lead to death (or at least the 
loss of certain body parts) so, as a fat man, it's good to know I'm at low 
risk! <g>

Fat Men More Faithful

A new study says fat men are less likely to stray than their thinner 
counterparts - but not through lack of opportunity.

The German survey found that overweight men are more faithful because they had 
less inclination towards risky sex.

Market researcher group Forsa say men of average weight are more than twice as 
likely to be unfaithful as fatter men.

Overweight men are not only less likely to cheat on their partners, but are 
also less likely to visit brothels or call sex hotlines.

One thousand German men between the ages of 31 and 69 were questioned by the 
researchers.

They found 23% of men in the "normal" weight category admitted to being 
interested in a bit on the side, while just 11% in the "fat" category said they 
would cheat on their wives or girlfriends.

A further 19 per cent of men considered "moderately overweight" said they would 
have an affair.

The researchers say that it is not a lack of opportunity that make heavy men a 
less risky option, but simply that their wish for risky sex decreases.

Sascha Rusch, an expert for men's health, said fat men were not less sexually 
active than their slimmer counterparts but they "seldom rise to the challenge 
of a sexual adventure".
