lesson 019 Blame it
on Men
【TEXT】
What's the real reason women get fat? It's not
chocolate or ice cream. According to a recent report, which was
published in London, it's men! A magazine suggested men have a
special warning written on their foreheads:" I can make you fat!"
what do you think of that idea?
The report claims that when women fall in love, they tend to eat
more. When they get married, they cook more. And when they get
pregnant, of course, they gain weight. They blame it on men. So,
girls, if you want to lose weight, you don't have to go on a diet:
just dump your boyfriends!
