They averaged the numbers and determined that women typically understate their weight by 20lbs!

This is :shocked:ing, to say the least!
and guys lie about their dick size. so what? in the end everyone gets caught lying.


Guy's lie about their size? :confused: Are you speaking from personal experience? Have you been dissapointed once or twice?
how long is yours?

im hung like a llight switch

Personally I (and I think most of my friends) never talk about women in numbers (as in, omg she's like 150lbs) If you're fat you're fat, quit lying to yourself and act on it!

And no I don't Lie about my dick size.
Altough the times that comes up during a conversation are rare (hmm.. that sounds .. wrong)

this is why men have such a skewed view on what women look like and how much they weigh.

I know of guys who lie about their height. I even know of guys who wear a bigger shoe than their foot actually is, just so they dont walk around with small looking feet. One guy Im aware of wears shoes with huge soles, Im talking 2 inches here.

"Why do women insist on lieing about their weight ???"

The same reason they say "thank you" if you ask them if they loss weight.

Why would we? One UCLA study found out that 85% of women are happy with their partner's penis size.. Studies have also found that women prefer width rather than length.

What makes it worse is this.... Women already lie about their weight. But then when they use those crappy digital home scales they dont realize that those are usually about 5 - 10 pounds off. Those scales always seem to be to light. You need to add wieght if you use one of those.

Have to consider also that your weight should always be when you are naked. I'm sure they weighed them with their clothes on for this. So even if they thought they were telling the truth if they had one of these crappy scales at home and they did it with no clothes then they could easlily be about 10 - 15 pounds off from the scale used on that show.

When I was in college, the college radio station had a show on late one night with a bunch of girls who somehow got on to this subject. Before the show was cut off (surprise!) I think it was something like 3 out of the 4 girls said they preferred width.

Women can lie about their weight all they want but their dress size reveals all.

Part of the reason (a minor one), is that contrary to popular belief, women dislike extremely big (length-wise) ones. Too lazy to look up the name but there's a spot on the upper vagina - lower uterus which is so sensitive that it apparently feels like you got punched in the stomach if the penis reaches and touches it. Crazy.

Depends on how others view them. Some people would think she's anorexic.. so instead of saying she's 100 lbs, she says she's 115 lbs. And some overweight ladies aren't too proud of themselves so they lie about their weight.. Like mentioned previously, INSECURITY.

The same reason guys lie about their weight, just in the opposite direction.

LOL, I'm sure that was entertaining to watch these ladies fudge their numbers concerning their weight. However, I think guys are just as bad!

Not with today's trend of moving around dress sized to help more woman "feel better" about what size they wear.

Cervix? Anyways, another thing worth mentioning is that not all women are the same "size" either.
