Men's Girdle Market Expanding in Japan

Who knew? Lyndon Johnson is said to have worn a girdle (not that it helped) as was General MacArthur. Now Reuters reports that chubby Japanese men snapped up girdles for men, making them so " popular when introduced on a trial basis last month that some stores quickly sold out." And, reminiscent of a Seinfeld episode in which George invented the "man bra" bras for Japanese men are also on the drawing board.

Must be time to lay off the tempura.
