The Scientific Diagnosis

It's common observation that women put on weight after marraige. Since Shantan and I have been talking about health programs, a lot of weight[y] issues have cropped up.
We talked of women putting on weight after marriage (especially in India). We joked about the sudden lifestyle changes, letting go of yourself, not having to look for a partner anymore, etc. etc. People just get lazy.

"But what about hormones?". Do women experience a hormonal shift once they are sexually active? Surprisingly, I did not find any information FOR this argument anywhere on the Internet (or at least not in the top 20 Google search results).

Then he said, with a glint in his eye, "you know our bodies learn to adapt as per their requirements".
"What do you mean?"
"Well, if you've got someone heavy on
top of you every night, the muscles have to adapt...."

I just rolled off the chair laughing. We are going to be such scientific health counsellors.
Women, if your hips are exploding post-sex, you're probably sleeping with the fat bastard.
