If that is what women think, then I believe that they are dead wrong.
Personally, I prefer slim women (as opposed to overweight), however I do
not judge their weight by how much they eat, but rather by how they look
(so sue me, I am a sucker for good [read slender] looks).

As I remember from highschool lectures on the subject of diets, it is
not how much you eat, but rather the individual body metabolism rate
that determines how much weight you gain or fail to gain.
I am sure all of us know of people (or are them) that can eat cakes,
biscuits, butter, etc. without putting on a pound as opposed to others
who go on a diet after a 'splurge' on a piece of cake.

So, speaking for myself, I do not have any preconceived notions about the
amount of food that MOTS should eat.  Let them look after their bodies,
and leave it to me to look at the results [ :-)) ].

Hear that, girls/women/gals/ladies/females/...?
