Gained Weight? 50% Chance You’ll Be Dumped By Nadine DeNinno
Results of a survey showed that more than half of men would break up with their girlfriend if she gained weight compared to only 20 percent of women who would do the same.
Askmen.com in partnership with Cosmopolitan.com surveyed a group of 70,000 people on whether or not they would dump a partner for weight gain, amongst 38 other relationship questions.
48 percent of American men answered “Yes” when to the prompted question, “Would you dump a girlfriend if she became fat?” Of the women who were asked the same question, only 20 percent responded “Yes.”
According to “The Great Male Survey” mission statement, the purpose of the survey is to “shed serious light on how the modern man thinks and behaves professionally, romantically and in his downtime, in 2011.”
Other findings in the survey showed that 78 percent of men can sense when a woman is faking an orgasm, though only 22 percent of women admit to faking frequently.
Another shocking discovery was 50 percent of men lie about how many sexual partners they have had compared to the 35 percent of women who lie.
The only common ground that men and women surveyed seemed to agree on was soon-to-be developed male birth controls pills. 50 percent of women advocate their partner’s taking of birth control while more than 60 percent of men would want to take it, according to the survey results.
A data-driven site, www.greatmalesurvey.com, based upon this survey will launch in Aug. this year providing “more insights into manhood.”
Re: More than 50% of men will dump their partner on weight gain..LOL!
I don’t understand. A few days ago there was a thread about an article stating that men are happier when their wives are thinnner. And now this. Being fit and healthy is important for both genders. Why is this one-sided?

\48 percent of American men answered "Yes" when to the prompted question, "Would you dump a girlfriend if she became fat?"
Not sure why this is a surprise to anyone. American men dump "girlfriends" for varios reasons all the time.
I would've liked to see results if the men were asked how many would divorce their wives if she became fat...especially if that "fatness" came after giving birth.
There is a HUGE differnce between men getting rid of their "girlfriends"...and men getting rid of their "wives".

Being fit and healthy is important all the time and more so after marriage due to various reasons but i agree, why only the women? I think the men needs to be as fit and healthy as possible cuz after all he’s the provider of the family :D.
But this survey may be true for bf/gf but not so true for husband and wife or so i hope. Otherwise most marriages would end after the wife gets pregnant?! Oh wait, maybe they don’t end but the guys end up having gfs while being married?
