tits and beer
Posted: Fri Nov 01, 2002 10:21 am
i was out running the other day and out of coincidence, i met my old chum val eggman. (the fact that i was running is the only connection to the "sports" thread; sorry but i didn't know where else to post this).
we used to play in a band way back but he is now a dermatologist and has the usual doctor's malaises -- he complains about being overworked all the time, doesn't know what to do with his fucking money, dislikes his patients, yada yada yada.
so basically he is the worse for wear but at least he had some juicy gossip; for example about a local female politician who, according to him, has a spectacular body and some weird social diseases.
but i digress. what was really interesting, and the reason why i am sharing this with you, is what he had to say about what you might call the german male figure syndrome. you see, german men as such are not only unusual in the way they wear sandals with socks in all kinds of weather, but also in respect to certain physical characteristics.
my pal val says its all in the beer. you see, the oestrogens that are a normal element in beer tend to make a human body more female -- breasts included. you go to a sauna in germany and you will see lots of fat guys with tits.
but here is where it gets really gross, so hold tight (or click backwards).
all that beer and all that fat food in combination, gives a guy a pot belly, of course. now, imagine the effect that a really big german pot has on a body. a big belly, forced by gravity, likes to pull itself outwards and downwards, over the waistline. you know how al bundy used to say that "real men don't wear their belly under a belt"? that's what i mean.
anyway. all that pulling creates a kind of internal suction and therefore the organs below the hip tend to get sucked into the body.
so when you take a fat pot-bellied beer-drinking guy, he will not only have tits, but also a small dick -- it kinda gets pulled into the body. in fact, val the dermatologist reports that lots of fat guys cannot see their privates without using a mirror. that's why he often has patients with skin problems -- they don't notice the early symptoms of excema and whatnot...
i really shouldn't concern myself with such matters, since i am a wine drinker, but for some reason i found it significant. forgive me, please.
