They don't smoke. Nicotine lessens desire for food.

Not many people smoke anymore, Mormon or not.

Many have been sexually molested as young girls; which can also cause eating disorders such as overeating.

That's a serious charge. Is there any proof Mormons girls are molested at higher rates than non-mormon girls?

Mormons continue to eat like farmers, but not work like farmers.

The culture of Mormonism does involve eating like farmers, so there might be something to this point, but overall I don't think Mormon women are fatter than american women in general. I think it's an American thing, not a Mormon thing. Are Mormons from "skinny" countries as fat as their american counterparts?

Wait.... you are saying "Mormon" women are fat???

Try Americans are fat. Then you might be onto something.

[_daheshism]

For every "fat" Mormon man there are probalby 10 fat Mormon women.

Again....farmer's diet plus no nicotine plus sexual trauma as young girls.

They don't get enough sex. Simple! And they are probably carrying post pregnancy fat for about 5 children.

But really, I don't think Mormon women are any fatter than non Mormon women.

Is that the real pirate???

What's the excuse for fat men?

Obesity: Australia ranked in global top three

Researchers from the US, UK and World Health Organization estimated trends in obesity, cholesterol and blood pressure using health surveys and epidemiological studies from 199 countries between 1980 and 2008.

The studies found North American men had the highest average BMI in the world, at 28.4 kg/m2, followed by Australian and New Zealand men, at 27.6 kg/m2.

Give us a good asteroid collision and you will see the obesity rate change big time,

Brigham, in his later years, was monumentally obese. And yet, still considered a good catch for his fifty fourth or fifty filth wife.

I am always impressed with the ability of women to overlook the physical shortcomings of potential mates.
