    There is maybe a subtle but big difference between being a fat slob and being powerful.

    Big guys/ strong guys always seemed to be attractive at least to some people. Henry the 8th was big to look good. Apparently he was much slimmer as a youth.

    But I’m not a woman and I have no first hand experience on being overweight so what do I know?

      To be fair, Henry got brain damage from a jousting incident that destroyed any impulse control. And it helped that no one could tell him no if they wanted to live.
