Further signs of the impending apocalypse: Men's girdles are now all the rage.

They call it "men's shapewear," true, but ladies, we know that you know from long and tummy-tucking experience what that really means.

LOL. I doubt that any man in the real world would wear such a thing. They would be sure to get beaten up.

I've seen the advertisements for these things. They don't call them 'girdles' but that's obviously what they are. They're pretty comical.

I'm sure there are men that would wear such a thing. I've thought about it, but I'd need to build some self-confidence to buy one, nevermind the feeling that it promotes laziness. But then again, I don't think many people think that way about the women who wear them.

I'd rather get in shape and lose the gut than wear one of those things. It's another short-cut of the sort that we Americans love. They never work.

Oh, I understand the whole work out thing, but what I'm saying is, few people go after women who wear these things, but the minute guys want to wear them, they are called lazy. I don't like the double standard.

OK, two guys are playing golf and the first guy bends over to pick up his ball and his midsection is exposed revealing a girdle. The second guy says: "Is that a girdle?" The first guy says: "Yea, its a girdle." The second guy says: "How long have you been wearing a girdle?" The first guy says: "Since my wife found it in the back seat of my car."

For you ladies, this is a joke.
