1. Personal experience.

2. Women have bigger percentage of body fat ratio than men (obesity excluded). And I think it has something to do with the body wanting more body fat cause having a certain level of body fat makes childbearing much easier or something if the woman does go into childbearing.
I can't speak to your personal experience, but the much greater muscle mass of a typical man requires a considerable daily caloric intake just to maintain. Fat, on the other hand, requires very little maintenance. That is why a typical man will eat more than a typical woman even if he has a lower body fat ratio.

Make that all but one. My GF eats more than I do, then again she's about the same size as I am and even though she's not swimming competetively anymore she's still more active and in better shape than me.
Yeah, but I've met you, and you're skinny :)

So much?

In the city where I live, all girl is on some type of freaky diet and when I bring one to a restaurant - I usually takea soup or a cold starter then beef or some kind of wild meat - the best they can do is to chew a salad for an hour.

The worst is that I feel ashamed because I eat like normal people do...

Maybe he means 'why do girls always nick my chips?'

As no woman is capable of letting a man enjoy an entire plate of chips.
I can't explain it, but someone else's chip[s always taste better than your own.

There are several reasons that it could be the girls are seemingly hungry all the time.

1. They're all on a sports team of some sort or actually work out.

2. It's that time of month. My appetite always soars during that time.

I may be skinny but I eat a fair bit each day, especially in the summer when I'm quite active. You should see me at BBQ's, I'll have my plate piled high with a couple pounds of beef, pork, & chicken, which pisses off my mom because she's become a freakin' health nut and thinks I'm going to die from eating like that. Normally I eat about the same amount as my 185 pound police officer friend, and that's a good deal of food.

Its just you. But I do notice that women can't help but eat a guys fries, chips, mini-eggrolls, ect. And I don't say this as anything against women, its just that most of my male friends (I emphasis most, not all) tend to adhere to a strict code of not taking food from another unless pushed a second or third or tenth time.

Put a man and a woman on the same calorie diet, the woman will STILL have more body fat. Its biochemical. If you have surplus calories you either build muscle, fat or both. Men have all these nice androgens which make building muscle much easier. Women have other biochemical triggers that make building and maintaining fat easier.

In any event women having a higher percentage of body fat is a good thing ... what do you think boobs are made out of :wink:

...Which leads to a joke I heard in university. How do you make a few pounds of fat look attractive? Put a nipple on it. We were drunk and staring at some chick's tits when she told us to knock it off, and when we didn't she said "fuck you all, it's just fat you assholes!", which led to the above joke.

Now I know! I think it's cause I've heard women say more about them being hungry than guys do.


Now take note: these girls and guys are the people of my high school, so they probably won't be like "real" :P people.
