Is It OK To Get Fat After You Get Married

Is it OK for woman to become fat after she gets married? What are the ethical and moral dilemmas? Is it OK for the man in the marriage to become obese and if so is that any worse than if the woman does? Rapper Jay-Z who is married to the beautiful Beyonce Knowles said that his plan for the future is to live on a desert island and become extremely fat, but how would he react if she decided to become fat too? Is there one rule for men and another rule for women?

In a relationship when one partner becomes overweight it can be very frustrating for the other one. It is true that in some marriages there is absolutely no problem, but for many men and women the weight gain of their other half can make them feel cheated.There’s no doubt about the fact that single people tend to make more of an effort to stay thin and that when they are in a comfortable and secure relationship they place less emphasis on going to the gym and eating healthy. We’ve all been there!
Probably the best thing to do if you have a big problem with your partner putting on weight would be to nip it in the bud. Rather than building up your resentment about their weight gain you should make an extra effort to set an example and even broach the subject gently and sensitively. Tell your partner that you can help them to lose weight and tell them how amazing they looked when you met them.
If in your case, the idea of going out with an overweight person is abhorrent the only choice that you have is to make sure that you go out with a health fanatic who is paranoid about weight gain. At the end of the day some couples are happy to get fat together but others are definitely not. Communication is always the best way forward so talk about it...sensitively!

I don't think you can say 'is it worse for a man or a woman' in fact it is exactly the same both ways. It may be more acceptable socialy for a man to be overweight but that does not make it better within a marriage.
