Not sure if this is significant (first thoughts are on higher BMI women played more often by and taking more shots with alphas or men in general) or if anyone can decipher what the "Results" actually mean (ie "P=.002" etc).

Design, Setting, and Participants
Cross-sectional examination of 860 sexually active, predominantly minority, adolescent women who received medical care at an urban health center from 2007 through 2013.

Results
BMI was positively associated with number of sexual partners (P = .001) and history of attempted anal intercourse (P = .002). An inverse association was observed with age at first anal intercourse (P = .040).

Conclusion
In this sample of adolescent women, increased BMI was associated with riskier sexual practices at a younger age. Results of this study suggest that overweight and obese adolescents are a vulnerable population who might need targeted sexual health counseling.
