@j_sum I had four babies as a fat woman. I was told it was unlikely, and their 'opinion' was balderdash. 

@m.b.20 absolutely. How about removing the stigma that pushes women to all be the same size, instead of the stigma around taking medication for things its not designed for!

The University system needs to be looked at in the same way - anyone who has a 'service' role - usually some sort of academic administration as well as teaching and research - works a huge amount of hours each week over and above what is allocated. I often wonder what would happen if we all just stopped doing unpaid overtime.
