Apparently there’s a problem in society with men being overweight. However, it’s not as bad as you think! A recent study came out that suggests that obese men are BETTER in bed. Yes, you heard that right! Now every guy wants to be fat I guess!
A new yearlong study out of Turkey’s Erciyes University found that men with excess body fat experience increased sexual performance, thanks to higher levels of the female sex hormone estradiol.
After analyzing 100 male participants, researchers found that men with a high body mass index could last an average of 7.3 minutes during lovemaking, while men who were more fit lasted an average of 108 seconds. Because estradiol disrupts the male neurotransmitter chemicals, men with higher levels of it are slower to reach orgasm, the researchers concluded.
It seems that the big guys develop more female sex hormones than their gym rat buddies, which, in turn, influences their sexual performance, according to the Daily Telegraph.
When the data was broken down, overweight men lasted about 7 minutes before climaxing, whereas slimmer guys were closer to 2 minutes. That’s a big difference when it comes to a heterosexual woman achieving her own payoff since it takes, on average, about 10-20 minutes for women to get there. A mismatch in these times between straight couples can lead to frustration.
The authors of the study wrote: “We found that patients with lifelong PE were leaner than the healthy control cases.” And conversely, “As the BMI increased, the number of patients decreased in the PE group.” And yes, this worked all the way up to men in the obese category. The larger the guy, the longer he lasted. The reason why? Scientists are guessing that it’s estradiol. This female hormone inhibits orgasm in men, and it’s produced by fat. The more fat, the more hormone. The more estradiol, the closer men’s time to climax gets to women’s.
