Subject: Male fat vs. female fat ??

Yesterday at Bally's a lady made the comment that "Male fat is easieIr to lose than female fat".  That is a first for me.  Anyone else ever heard of that?  I need to google it!

Apparently it has to do with the fat women gain during pregnancy.  I always thought fat was fat was fat.  We all struggle equally.  Thoughts??

I think she's trying to justify.  I was in my best shape, least body fat - 13-15% after two kids.  Now, that was 3 kids and 12 years ago.  It is harder for me now but I think it has more to do with age than how many babies I've had.

Men generally have more muscle and build muscle easier/faster so their metabolisms are faster and they burn more fat.
