http://uk.reuters.com/news/video?videoId=94348 Apparently posted in November back when we were distracted. Still, it's an awesome story.

"Nov. 21 - A bra for men becomes the hottest selling men's underwear item on a Japanese online shopping site. The move has provoked heated online discussion in Japan with thousands debating the merits of male use of the item of underwear. Toshi Maeda reports."

5. That will last until they get sick of pulling up the straps.

6. Coming soon to America?

There are a lot of men who have gynecomastia--enlarged breasts. If they came up with a reducing bra for gynecomastia victims, a lot of those men would wear it.

Also expect to see a padded bra that makes you look like you've got pecs. Many, many guys would wear that.

Never underestimate the vanity of the American male.
