My mam has always wished she could be as skinny as she was the first time she thought she was fat - and I often wish the same for my sex life. Not necessarily that I wish I was skinny as I was when I first started banging, but I wonder how my sex life would differ if I'd stayed as thin as I was then.

It is also known that the changes in sex steroid concentrations during puberty and again with advancing age are accompanied by changes in body fat distribution.
