I feel the need to elaborate on the point that I understand the unfeminist-y generalizations that I expounded in my letter.

An article in the Huffington Post, Do Overweight Women Skip Sex? Fat Chance!, cites a recent study based on data on more than 7,000 women collected in the 2002 national survey of family growth in stating new claims that, contrary to popular belief (?), overweight and obese women seem to be having more sex than [...]
