So silly this thread.. men are handsome just the way they are.. I honestly don't think women think like men do.
Men want something pretty to show off to their friends, their lady's appearance and physique is quite important. They're very visual.
They get a bit jealous if another man turns to look, but they get even more upset if it doesn't happen.
Women usually could not care less if a man has a few physical imperfections and a paunch is really not an issue
In fact, they'll turn them into qualities given half a chance.
Silly

Its regarding a guy that collects his belly button fluff, dreaming of making his own pillow..
then again not all people can do this.. if you have an "outie", it won't work, if you have a big " pot belly" with an "innie", you are good to go.
Pro's and con's about pot bellied men aside but screw them..A good tool needs to hang under a roof |

I like my belly, but I like being alive even more, so I'm trying to lose it.
My wife is undecided on the subject, however.

Heart disease, unfortunately, tends to be a pretty slow, life-buggering-upping disease.
I've had enough of my life being buggered up recently, so I'll take less-cuddly over less-alive, I think.
Not sure how successful I'll be, but it's worth a try, surely? | The following 2 users would like to thank for this useful post: | |

to be fair,,,,,if a chap was THAT embarassed by his gut. Then he would do something about it.
If he does nothing to get rid of it,,,,,,well,,,,,,it can't bother him that much,,,,
Just my thoughts,,,,,,,,,

The great advantage of a pot belly is, of course, that it blocks the vision of my fat thighs. So it's all good. | The following 2 users would like to thank Kittster for this useful post: | |
