Wow a whole new world of kinky sex play has opened itself.

[Flow to Live]

How do we get one?

I hate how my man boobs bounce all over the place when I walk.

This is the country where it's socially acceptable for men to be more girly than the girls and carry around man-purses and some are actually suprised?

Come on now.

My husband's been going off on this for days. He keeps asking me what's wrong with Japanese like I have an answer.

They've been on that island for far too long.

Umm.....I didn't want to get in trouble looking at this video, but from the first 10 seconds, I can see that dude needs a push-up bra. And wearing a black bra under a light-colored shirt? What is he, a whore?

Also, men with moobs does not equal sexy.

[SunWuKong]

this has got to be a fetish.

[eos]

Wait, don't men here dress in women's underwear also? I see it all the time on Springer: "My midget lover dresses in bras and panties while I spank him with a paddle."

[popculturepooka]

Yeah, the Japanese ad makes no pretense as to what they're really for. The whole "hide your moobs" thing is entirely a fabrication of the article writers, who evidently can't read Japanese.

The first advertisement says:

"It began with a word from our customers.

'Why is there no bra for men?' (in sort of girly language)
When it comes to why....wouldn't that be because it isn't necessary...?
But...the fact that there are people who still say 'I want one' means...
IT IS NECESSARY."

I'm talking about this (http://gizmodo.com/5092694/man-bra-keeps-your-moobs-in-check) ad btw.

I showed it to my gf and she said "kimochi warui". I'm going to have to agree.

i recognize kimochi from videos, but what's warui?

[popculturepooka]

What kind of videos DO YOU watch?
The only videos where "kimochi" is said repeatedly is like in porn, dude. :/

But "kimochi warui" can mean anything from "that's fucking gross" to "feeling like this sucks".

I'm pretty sure she meant the former.

^Actually, I heard them saying KIMOCHI in that Korean cook show where they teach you how to make spicy Korean dish with pickled cabbage, peppers, and garlic.

[popculturepooka]

^ Err, you mean kimchi?

[Broomer]

As a gender, what the hell have we become?
This is a sad, sad day for anyone with a pair of testicles.
I've got a bit of man boobs (that I'm slowing working off) and seeing that is just sad.

Having said all that, I've seens some bloke with really disgusting man boobs.

Oh man that's screwed up. I hope this trend doesn't spill over into other parts of the world.

I am still curious why men develop this condition? why is it, it become popular nowadays of which we never heard before?
