Fat and happy

105 21
There is tribe in central Africa that insists on a fat bride irrespective of her genetic make up. Lobola usually measured in cows is paid at a scale of say fifty kilograms with an expectation that she would be ninety by delivery date. The minimum delivery kilogram level is not negotiable. If the expectations are not met the number of cows to deliver is slashed and the bride's family is disgraced. I don't know what tradition then saw in a fat bride and the insistence on the fat state maintenance throughout married life. In my jaundiced view I see osteo arthritis, hypertension, cholesterol, gallstones but I will be brave and say they probably saw happiness. What is even more surprising is none of these supposed complications surface.
I will start with men; they have always been simpler beings. Being fat and chubby in men is associated with being at peace with your soul. We probably should mind the high testosterone associated with the iron Mike group and for the same reason the higher estrogen in the fat and estrogen factory group, but that still leaves you with a blatant fact that nobody leaves their kid under Mike's care.Luciano is probably running a crche in heaven in contrast. I am scientific and expect to see the underlying variables matched but results in retrospective studies speak for themselves.
Women on the other hand will be represented by Posh, Oprah and all the depressed obsessive compulsive groups yo-yoing between normal and anorexia. This is obviously abnormal if you compare them to Queen Latif and Monique group. If fat that is produced gets converted into estrogens, what is it in the estrogens that lead to the serotogenic calming effect that we see as the end result. In contrast does Mike have to be that violent and what purpose does it serve to satisfy the testosterone urge. God made everything to make sense. The link that testosterone and the procreation and survival of the species have in common should be there for someone to find. Many women will probably say that is dependent on which head has the most blood when decisions have to be made. As men we work with both and respect them equally.
Why do women fall in love with a testoronic male, change him into an estrogenic male once married and expect to continue receiving the positives from both characters is another puzzling factor. Does nurturing and mothering the children as a father override the protective role the male has to serve as a shield from outside aggression? In an attempt to answer a question we unfortunately more in the dark than when we started, but is that not what life is? What makes a woman sacrifice all the hunk for the blob of fat lying next to her?
