In her world view a 500lb pound 80 year old infertile woman is just as sexually attractive to males as a 22 year old healthy active fertile woman if it weren’t for societal conditioning. This claim is easily disprovable and would never pass peer review.

Congratulations, Tressie. It’s very well-deserved. My perspectives have been challenged by you, and then I changed them! You’re going to do that for a lot more people and that is a very good thing!
