It's about time!

While I was crusin' the net this morning for news, I came across an article on Foxnews.com (first story) that caught my eye. Rather than have me set this up, why don't I just let everyone else read it for themselves. I'll let me say this; it's like drinking, you just have to know when to stop, if I can do it (and believe me, no one wants to see me shirtless, not yet at least ...that'll be next summer) then so can everyone else.

Seriously, dude. No one wants to see that.
Before you go baring that beer belly in public, you’d better check to see if your need to be free flies with the locals. This summer’s skyrocketing temperatures have led local lawmakers in the UK to consider bans on public nudity of the middle-aged shirtless man variety, The Daily Mail reports."There is a problem," government minister Nicholas Bennett said. "In my part of the country we are trying to revitalize the main shopping precinct.” "But one of the things that is depressing for anyone going shopping is the numbers of shaven-headed men, mainly in their 30s and 40s, who seem to think people want to see their torsos." The proposed laws would work just like the statutes that ban drinking in the streets or loitering: if you choose to lose your gut cover, a cop can choose to remove you from public. "It is an unfortunate thing, but those men who like best to bare their stomachs are the ones who have too much stomach," Bennett said. Though some towns doubt the feasibility of protecting the public’s eyes from these gut-loving guys’ battle with the bulge, Bennett and his backers insist that a little modesty would go a long way — especially in the eyes of the offended.

I see it and I think it's wrong...I know when to say when, why can't other guys?

How I wish they'd pass that law here. I'm so tired of seeing out of shape men walking around without shirts.

My husband and his dunlap is one thing, but I don't want to see it on other men.

I guess they just don't care? Sorry you have to see it. That would not be fun to see all the time.
