    For years we women bemoaned the impossible standards men had toward women, yet there were no such standards for men. Scott hit the nail on the head—the irony of it being men expecting implausible physiques from other men is exquisitely perfect! Now maybe men will stop looking down on women who aren’t perfect like those in movies and magazines. I know, I know. Too much to hope for!

    FYI everyone: that first character after the slash in the shortened URL is a number 1, not a lowercase L or capital i.

    And thanks to that article, I now know that that gross thing that looks like the front of an 80s thong bikini bottom and has no business being anywhere on a dude is a called an “inguinal crease” and every action star seems to think he needs one.
