Former Di Asa contestant, Josephine Mantey who weighs 215kg has revealed that most men prefer plus-size women to slender women but often hide it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Speaking on SVTV Africa, Josephine indicated that when she goes out with friends, men reach out to her more than her slender friends. Hence her decision to stay a plus-size woman and won’t lose weight as many have advised.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople often say that men have challenges with plus size women but I’ve realised that men like us more. Sometimes I go out with a slim friend to about four places. The big men with big cars rather come proposing to me but not even two men will talk to her.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo why do people think men don’t prefer us. I think men hide it because of the perception of plus size women. Some are proud of their plus size ladies so they show them off,\u201d she told host DJ Nyaami.<\/p>\n
Josephine added that she is confident in her body, and has not thought about losing weight. According to her, she is healthy and exercises a lot.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She came 5th in the just ended Di Asa competition, organised by Atinka Media.\u00a0<\/p>\n
