DEAR REDBOOK READER:
You ladies are much more focused on your weight than your guys are. I hear stories every now and then about a dude who gives gives his wife static when she gains weight, but those guys are what normal guys call "jerks," and they are in the minority. The truth is, I don't notice when Karel gains weight (she wears it very well) nor do I notice when she drops weight, which occasionally lands me in hot water.
