Weight gain theories

Tuny's 3 theories why men (drastically) gain weight after marriage:

1. Alpha Male theory. After hunting (translation: spending 8 hours pretending to be productive at the office), men basically sit, watch TV, sleep, eat and keep their wives company-- much like male African lions we see on Discovery Channel.

2. Evolution. During pregnancy, a woman's hips grow to accommodate the baby. Ours come later. Having arms and hands not designed to carry a TV remote and a baby at the same time, we grow a beer belly to act as a skidway or platform to support the baby's weight.

3. Sex becomes the only exercise for a while. Its more convenient than driving yourself to the gym, and its more fun! However note that for a person weighing 160lbs., moderate sex lasting for, say 15 minutes, can only burn 14.4 calories. Compare that to 15 minutes of jogging which burns 132 calories.
