Is it a regular sex that makes a woman fat after wedding? I have seen a lot of slim or slender ladies turning to fatty orobo when they get married. And I wonder what could be responsible for their sudden change in stature. A friend told me that once a lady gets married and starts having sex, she may starts getting fatter as a result of sperm deposits in her. I quite disagreed with her and decided to bring it to this forum for proper enlightenment. So dear nairalanders, is it true?

Ask the ladies. I think you have the answer more than the men do.

Why should I know ask ifa or obatala

Why should I know ask ifa or obatala obatasa oba takun takun

Where is"explorer"?
Pls dis question is for u
Abeg research am

No




Because there are married women and mothers that are still slim



Body structure differ

It's not sex. it's food and rest of mind. But mind you our ladies take sex as food too oooo. That's why they must eat that special food at least once in two days as I was told. Over to you ladies, na lie I talk?

NOTE: am referring to married women only.

They say that sex helps you burn calories and get in shape. But if we look at the female ticks, we could see how after mating, they grow from as big as a sand grain to the size of a large bean.

The ixodid female ticks experience an astonishing 100 times weight increase after mating!

Dr. Reuben Kaufman, from the Department of Biology at University of Alberta, was interested in finding out what causes such a massive weight increase, a record amongst blood-sucking creatures. He compared the ticks with blood-sucking insects: mosquitoes, tsetse flies, bed bugs and kissing bugs (ticks are not insects, but arachnids, related to spiders and scorpions). None of these insects gains such a weight.

Kaufman found in the case of the ixodid ticks an extremely different lifestyle from vampire insects. Ticks stay sucking on their hosts for days, not minutes and need about 6-10 days to reach the huge size. And the massive weight gain does not occur in the case of virgin females.

"In this family of ticks, mating takes place on the host. Most other arthropods mate before or after their brief blood meal -the two acts are totally separate, but not with these ticks." said Kaufman.

In a first phase, when the female tick attaches to the host, she experiences a rapid 10 times weight increase and stops. After she copulates, another 10 times increase follows.
The virgin ticks rarely overpass the critical weight required for laying eggs.

"It will hang on to the host for weeks, waiting for a male to find her," said Kaufman.

An overweight virgin female could not reattach herself to a host, if groomed off.

"However, if she remains small she still has a chance to reattach itself to another host-hopefully infested with some feeding males-- continuing feeding and potentially mate. If a male eventually copulates with her, she will engorge normally and then be able to lay eggs. This is one reason why it might be adaptive for the virgin to remain small until mated."

Kaufman managed to detect in the male's seminal fluid two engorgement factor proteins that trigger the final massive engorgement in females.

A future anti-tick vaccine could employ these proteins, as tests have already suggested that mated ticks cannot fully engorge and thus reproduce, when ingesting the blood of a host that has been immunized against those proteins. An effective anti-tick vaccine could protect livestock and pets, as ticks, besides stealing you a blood amount, transmit some dangerous blood parasites on animals, related to malaria, but also the Lyme disease, a severe bacterial infection, in humans.

Are you aware that some single women have more sex than married women?

Sex has been rubbished in this generation, and it is no longer exclusive to marriage. So, if sex does not make you fat before marriage, it won't make you fat in marriage.

Regular sex nor sperm isn't the cause of their weight add but rest of mind.. Imagine when you do not have to be thinking about husband, money for subscription, money to make hair or who to take you out during weekend.. Most women start adding the moment their mind is at rest and she eats whatever she want to eat anytime any day..

It has to do more Abt laziness.once they get married they see no point in staying fit

Will you pls explain this in a layman's language?

Am a layman in medical field too. I copied this from google

Just when I thought I have seen the most ridiculous statement, someone comes up with a new one. Spe,rm deposits make a woman fat?

The opposite is the case. Se.x burns calories. Lack of s.exual fulfillment makes some women eat more. Food becomes the replacement for s.exual satisfaction.

Too much food, not enough exercise and the attitude that a pregnancy is a disease / impairment make women fat.
Also the attitude of "till death do us part" no matter how rotten or ugly I get.

Gbam @bolded.
It's simply due to an increased calorie intake and less expenditure of energy.For some when pregnancy occurs,then it's due to hormonal changes.

Not so true, one of the reasons a woman will start adding after marriage could be rest of mind, when you are married and there is peace... Also, the fact that u are in total control of your kitchen, you can eat whatever u like. Also, u must add weight ones the kids start coming. Was a size 8 b4 I got married,became size 10 after my first child, size 12 after d second child, I nw have my 3rd child but not sure of what my weight is currently but I think I have not added aside d lil belly fat...

[b][/b] NO OFFENCE LADIES.....PLS STOP GETTING FAT AFTER MARRIAGE TWO OF MY CLOSE FRIENDS HAS COMPLAINED TO ME ABOUT THEIR WIVES GETTING FAT AFTER MARRIAGE INCLUDING MY IN LAW. S*X IS NOT THE CAUSE, TOO MUCH FOOD AND LESS EXERCISE IS THE CAUSE. PLS STAY FIT AND SHAPEY IF NOT HE WILL CHEAT ON YOU. I HAVE SAID MY OWN

Some single ladies have more sex than many married women and they are still not fat.

MrFairplay4ume:

What about orunmila?

Why wouldnt a married woman get fatter.
When a lady because of marriage turns herself to a supervisor at home. All house works including cooking are done by the maids. All she does is eat anything that comes to mind while sitting glued to African magic and telemundo.

But come to think of it, why do married men also grow bigger tommy?

Birth control is your culprit

But regular sex makes an active female partner glow and fit

Ridiculous as your question might sound, I think I get the angle you're coming from.

Yes, I've heard that statement in the past, from way back when I was at Uni. A girlfriend who came visiting pointed out to her ex-roommate across the street that the once scraggly looking girl appeared fresher and more robust, ever since she moved in with her off campus boyfriend and was obviously having more sex with him.

To be honest her weight gain could simply have been a combination of her reacting to whatever form of birth control she was using, plus her (obviously) having unlimited access to his kitchen.

The "fresher" look could also have been due to that inner glow a sexually fulfilled woman gets from having regular (and satisfying) sex with her partner, coupled with her being in a more relaxed environment.

Rest of mind, rest of mind, rest of mind..... That's so annoying to hear....
Even those that are at war in marriage still grows fat...

I think its food, sedentary life and hormonal changes (contraceptives, pregnancy.......)

You are just a lazy woman
You must not add weight when kids starts coming

It's even pathetic that people expect you to add after marriage to show that you're 'living fine'.. That's how someone told me I don't "look like a married woman" because I haven't added flesh... said after marriage, a woman is supposed to add, to have that 'motherlike' stature. .
I was even happy to know I wasn't adding, was such a relief

I don't plan to pass size 8 all my life, love being slim and curvy .. so help me God

You are not working on your weight especially post pregnancy.You don't have to keep increasing in size with every pregnancy.

stop being lazy minded.. even after ten babies you can maintain your youthful figure if you work at it. it is not a result of wishful thinking, it takes work to achieve results, just like every other thing in life. The likes of beyonce spend hours at the gym to get back their body after child birth (the last time i checked, she was spending 8hours at the gym every alternate day when she is not on tour). Work your body, feed it right and it will reward you! dazzol!!

Baby is on d way .. I understand but hopefully I wouldn't add much; I watch what I eat... I exercise well too. ..

Even if I will add, wouldn't pass size 8.. presently wear size 6...

I love being slim; will do anything to retain my shape... Amen ooo
