A four-year study has revealed that both partners are more contented if the woman has a lower body mass index. The research further says that initially men stay in the relationship because they find their thinner partners attractive. Further down the line, women feel confident and loved because they know their man still wants them.The study from the University of Tennessee, which selected 169 married couples aged under 35, discovered that men who had a higher body mass index, which is calculated from height and weight, were happier at the start of their marriage and stayed that way.The same effect was true for the women - by the end of year four wives with a lower body mass index than their husbands were significantly happier than those who weighed the same or more.
