Guess what MOOBS are? Well I didn't know until a few days ago. I always called them man boobs but leave it up to man to make up unforgettable acronyms for such weird things.
There was a time when boys and young men in the country were sprouting man boobs. The theory, was that it was due to all the Kentucky Fried Chicken they were consuming. The chicken meat alone wasn't causing the mammory growth but more the hormones being injected into the chickens to speed up growth rates. Yes, it not only caused the chickens to mature faster and therefore be sent to the chopping block sooner, but it also caused the men who ate these birds to grow breasts. Now that's when I came to know about man boobs.
The epidemic of the Moobs has, I believe, been eradicated. At least here at home, that is. But then I read over the long weekend that the number of men in the UK going under the knife to remove their Moobs increased by a whopping 44% since 2008. That's about 323 man boobs! And that's one too many to even begin to think about. But, rhinoplasty is still up there when it comes to 'most favourite' operation to have amongst our men folk. Makes you wonder who still has their original bits anymore? Or are we just walking about sporting designer this and that...
