The Bert Show.

I'm always a little reluctant to ask you guys to call in this early because I know you're busy trying to get the kids off or whatever, get into work.

But I'm going to try anyway this morning because I read a statistic yesterday that to me was overwhelming.

And it also contradicted everything we talked about a couple of times last week.

Okay.

Because last week we were talking about women and how they were more upset about their men

gaining weight than they led on to their men. Like maybe dudes put on 50 pounds in 40 years or whatever

and their wives haven't said anything. And they were calling us up on the voice disguiser

last week and emailing us saying, yeah, you know, I've never told my husband this or my boyfriend.

But I think he's gross because all the weight he's gained. Right. And then I read this in Glamour magazine. It says, six out of ten women won't date or even look at a man who is skinnier than they are. Oh, yeah. Most of my friends are that way. Seriously. Maybe as a guy, I was shocked by that. I'm not, well, I could not date a guy smaller than me. Really? It would make me feel inadequate. Six out of ten, that means more women won't date a skinny guy than would. If they're skinnier than you. Yeah. Yeah. Because, I mean, from my friends and I that have talked about this, they're like, we want to feel small with a guy.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah. Because, I mean, from my friends and I that have talked about this, they're like, we want to feel small with a guy. Really? Yeah. We want to feel protected. It's a whole protection thing. A man should protect a woman, so you want a guy that's bigger than you. And it's an attraction thing, too. You want to feel attractive to them. And so if you're bigger than them, you feel, I would feel less attractive. I do. And also, I would agree with that because a man should not be able to wear your jeans. Well, that's extra extra. Your genes be too big on them. Yeah, like a real man doesn't wear skinny jeans. I was really surprised by this, maybe just because I'm a guy. But yeah, to you guys, it's like no big deal. It's a no-brainer yeah total no-brainer yeah because

some of my friends won't date guys not only yeah not only like shorter but also width wise

like it's almost like a comparison of their shoulder width yeah like they want a guy who's got more

brawn really so they'll take an instant look at him and based on his brawner's thinness.

I knew, Lord, no one knows more about short than I do. So I knew that, but I didn't know skinny. That is so funny because Katie and I, I've teased about this. Back when I did date guys, I would only date the skinny guys. Like I didn't want to date the guys that were brawner or meteor, but of course I was gay. So I ended up, I wanted to date.

The girlier the guy was, ended up I wanted to date the

girlier the guy was the more I wanted to date I was like huh what I think about this

and he kind of looks like his mom weird and he's got such nice skin it's a little of feminine

yeah a little feminine and it Yeah, a little of feminine. And it turns me on. Weird. That's awesome. 404-741-Q-100. Yeah, I thought this was going to be shocking. Not at all. Not for you guys. Hey, Stacey. Good morning. Hey, my husband is actually, he weighs more than I do, but he's, and he's a lot skinnier than I am.

I'm an 18-month-old, so it's trying to keep up with him.
