2.5 Million British Men Too Fat

New research issued by weight-management specialists LighterLife reveals that one in ten British men are unable to see their ####### because of their protruding bellies.

The research into the health of the nation’s men revealed that of those people, 43% hadn’t seen their ####### in the last two years, without looking in a mirror or bending over, whilst 16% were unable to remember the last time they saw it.

From the research of 2,000 men it was easy to see why the health of British men was in such a poor state as:

* 30% of men surveyed admitted to drinking alcohol three times a week

* One in ten admitted to boozing on a daily basis

* 21% claimed they rarely pay attention to what they eat - that figure rising to 29% amongst 35-44 year old men

* One in ten men never exercise

However it seems that only in drastic circumstances would British males consider doing something about their weight, explaining why the nation is becoming more obese each year:

* 52% would lose weight if they were constantly embarrassed about the way they looked

* 36% of those interviewed would only lose weight if they grew man boobs

* 52% would only lose weight if they received a serious health warning from their doctor

* 35% would take action if they were unable to have sex for an extended period of time

* 25 % would shed the pounds after consistent nagging from their partner

* 21% would lose weight if they were unable to do up their shoe laces

Mandy Cassidy, psychotherapist for weight-loss and weight-management company, LighterLife for men says: “It’s apparent that some British men take a relaxed approach to health and to losing weight. Often, it’s only when something drastic happens, will they consider losing weight and becoming healthier, which is a real worry.

Mandy continues: “The research reveals it is clearly not only women who worry about their appearance when it comes to extra weight. Men should be looking at maintaining a healthy lifestyle at all times not waiting for an obvious change to motivate them into action!”

It seems that men would also consider other options before losing weight and being able to see their ####### again. 34% of men would resort to creative shaving in order to make the length of their genitals appear larger, 19% would turn off the lights and 13% would even consider a ####### pump before losing weight.

Dr David Bull, a doctor and medical broadcaster said “A man who is not able to see his willy should think seriously about his health. He’s clearly on the brink of being or is already overweight. This simple check to see if your beer gut is a cause for concern, is something that men across the UK should be doing to ensure that a little bit of wobble doesn’t turn into a health issue. Not only is it not aesthetically pleasing, it could be damaging your long term health and survival”.

I wonder if this is one of the reasons why so many American women on this board marry Brit men ? Maybe they have more in common than the rest of us on here realized. :hehe:

"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

I think one of the most awesome aspects of this is that the irony is utterly lost on certain people. :devil:

But, alas, wit cannot be taught.

It's hard to argue with that.

Well, in spite of high levels of obesity levels in Britain it's still lower than the obesity levels in the US, which last time I checked were pretty high for men. So far fewer men here are able their ####### in this country. I suspect many who can't see their ####### still believe they should be with a 10, thankfully for them there's the K-1 visa. :thumbs:

I wonder if some kind of harness would help. If not, one could always resort to a mirror set-up.

Maybe they could holster it to their belt of their Dockers right next to their blackberry? That's a look (very prevalent in this country, not so much elsewhere) I've always found hot.

Rowr! Add a big visor to the mix, and I just might have to consider an affair.
