IN the movie "Lethal Weapon 3", actor Danny Glover's character Roger Murtaugh was caught by his partner Martin Riggs (a manic Mel Gibson) wearing a girdle under his uniform.
It's a male girdle, Murtaugh insists on a hooting Riggs after they chased down the bad guys.
Glover's character would later be forced anew to show the male girdle to fellow cops who are no less amused than Riggs.
It's a sad reality that like women, men are also in a tight fix over the constant battle of the bulge.
Diet and exercise can help but the human willpower can only work so long as one's patience runs out and one's longing for dessert begins. Besides last time we heard girdles are worn by women.
So how does one deal with an expanding waistline without undergoing months of painful exercise and even more painful diets? The answer is simple, but not without its price.
Liposuction also known as lipoplasty and suction lipectomy is said to be the best option for both men and women in trimming the waistline.
Of course the entertainment personalities are among the prime customers and/or beneficiaries of this procedure though they, especially the actresses
won't readily admit it.
Heck, country singer Kenny Rogers reportedly underwent the knife to trim those excess pounds.
And with all that moolah and moxy these famous personalities can ensure confidentiality from their plastic surgeon about their cellulite reduction gig.
Whether or not one admits to having liposuction is not the question. The important thing to consider is if this procedure is safe and beneficial for the person in the long term.
True, there had been exceptions to the rule. But based on the testimonials of hundreds, nay thousands of persons who successfully underwent lipo the answer is definitely an unqualified yes.
So men who aren't afraid of availing of viable options for trimming that waistline should seriously consider doing so.
Who knows it may benefit them in ways other than getting better fitting pants.
