In answer to the question: depending on the reason for the gain, I wouldn't necessarily break up with a partner if she gained weight or went slovenly--temporarily. It would absolutely affect how attracted I was to her and how I felt about sex, because unlike the stereotypes thrown about, I do care about visual attractiveness and consider sex a major part of my relationships. |
How is what you describe in the second quoted paragraph above any different from what you attribute to heterosexuals in the first paragraph? The second paragraph is pretty representative of most of the replies in this thread.
