Binge-eating worse than cheating!
A Mad, Mad World...
MOST Italians feel more guilty about over-eating than they do about cheating on their partners, a survey has found, suggesting that people in Casanova's native land care more about staying slim than staying faithful.
The survey, by psychology magazine Riza Psicosomatica, found that excessive eating and spending topped the list of what people considered the most guilt-inducing vices.
Sexual infidelity came bottom of the list of the magazine's 'seven deadly sins', behind neglecting friends and family, failing at work and not looking after one's physique.
The survey of some 1,000 Italians aged 25-55 found that religion played little part in determining what made people feel guilty, despite Italy's Roman Catholic traditions.
Only seven per cent of those questioned said religious rules induced guilt. The most powerful drivers of guilty feelings were the judgement of loved ones or the disapproval of society as a whole.
Naturally, who cares if you're sleeping around. As long as you're sexy and don't eat like a cow, companionship is just a flirt, phone-call, or ass slap away.Don't feel anything if it isn't hurting anyone. And it's not hurting anyone if they don't know about it.
I'm beginning to sound like someone I know.
