Nov 20 2008The World Is Ending, And I Need Better Support: That's Right Folks, Man-Bras
Remember the Seinfeld episode about man-bras (bros)? I'm trying to forget it. But man-bras actually do exist, and here they are. Made by Japanese underwearier Wish Room, each man-bra promises support where you need it most: right at the tit. And as a man who's no stranger to trying on his girlfriend's bras while she's in the shower: I like to put on a little makeup too. Just a little foundation, eyeliner, mascara, blush, and lipstick -- nothing crazy.
HIt the jump for a bunch more disturbing pictures.
Man Bra Keeps Your Moobs In Check [gizmodo]
Thanks to Ruthe, who admits I'd look dead sexy in one of these. And also, stilettos. She's right!

For moobs?
3. PLEEEZE! - November 20, 2008 12:33 PM
Uh...why then are they shaped like girl t***?
4. PLEEEZE! - November 20, 2008 12:36 PM
...and I never understood why bras that small would require under-wires? Seriously, a boob has to be more than a tit for an under-wire. There's got to be a little bouncy-bouncy!

I have a co-worker with gynecomastia. Can you say "Christmas gift"?

Pink?! No houndstooth check or a nice plaid flannel – no khaki? We're not even trying, are we?
7. Xray - November 20, 2008 12:39 PM
Pink? WTF?

i love the halo around his jugs.
its so soothing
10. Daisy - November 20, 2008 12:56 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell its fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is almost exactly like the scene in the movie Never Back Down when Max's uncle bob the weightlifter got man boobs from using steroids, and then ended up falling in with a group who called themselves the space monkeys. He wouldn't talk about it, but eventually he lost his life when he caused a piece of corporate art to roll through a starbucks, and got chased by a security guard who shot him in the head.

Hell, this made my check mine twice .
Perhaps, i can find a use for some if i wear them .. hrm .. below.
12. Gar - November 20, 2008 12:59 PM
@Daisy : aren't you fed up posting always the exact same comment everywhere ? because actually i am.
13. SmokingGirl - November 20, 2008 12:59 PM
OMFGLMFAO...Ha!
Pink, huh, yea that's sexy.
14. Moose Knuckle - November 20, 2008 12:59 PM
I also have a co-worker whom I participate in gay sex with. F*** I love gay sex. He'd LOVE these man bras. He also loves it when I like my poo of his dink dong.
15. Moose Knuckle - November 20, 2008 1:00 PM
*I mean LICK my poo OFF his dink dong. I'M DUMB!
16. LSDiesel - November 20, 2008 1:01 PM
No. Please God, No.
17. Bingles - November 20, 2008 1:03 PM
You know I actually think Daisy is pretty awesome. Of course I do write Never Back Down fanfic.
18. Foobar - November 20, 2008 1:05 PM
Its interesting to note that not only does Daisy post the same thing all the time, so do the people who ask her to stop.
19. Boost - November 20, 2008 1:08 PM
Noone has said it yet?
Kramer deserves props for this one.
Long live the Manzier!
20. steve - November 20, 2008 1:21 PM
wow thats funny bc http://www.playusout.com had this one first.
21. That ass was made for Cuttin Terds - November 20, 2008 1:21 PM
I love it how they don't even use a japanese guy in the ad. Instead, its some candy ass that is covering his delicate little nipples.
22. chunky monkey - November 20, 2008 1:28 PM
thats got to be fake. pink!?! and the fact that those are all shaped nothing like a manssiere would be shaped (if one did indeed exist).
and as a fellow daisy hater, i thought her NBDism was actually pretty good in this article, much better than usual
23. rainbowcinderellageek - November 20, 2008 1:33 PM
Well this is odd...and kinda creepy. I hope I don't see any men wearing these...especially not the pink one!

Bodyguards/Bouncers with Man-Bras are gonna have a hard time getting their gun holsters on. So stick em in your pants, and if you lose a nut or penis...well, let's be honest here, you're not gonna need them.
26. G Braden - November 20, 2008 1:42 PM
pink?!?
27. Moose Knuckle - November 20, 2008 1:43 PM
If your gonna post as me, please use your spellcheck retard
28. Elmo - November 20, 2008 1:59 PM
moobs are the boobs that need to go away
29. thatlizkid - November 20, 2008 2:02 PM
surely the cup of the man bra should be more peck shaped... instead of breast shaped
30. moomoowa - November 20, 2008 2:08 PM
here are translations of the first two:
________
It started from a question from one of our dear customers
"why are there no such thing as men's bras?"
why?... well, because it's not necessary?
however... if there is a single person out there who feels like he "wants" one...
IT MEANS THAT IT IS NECESSARY
men's premium brassiere
produce by WishRoom
_______
Since men's bodies are different from women's, we thought about it from the very beginning.
Materials, design...and the "feeling"...
Yes, it may be unnecesaary. Howevere...
IT MAKES YOU FEEL MORE GENTLE.
FEEL COMFORTED AND SAFE.
Those kinds of feelings must be important.
I am a man! Even for someone like you,
we'd like you to experience this gentleness.
31. jaime - November 20, 2008 2:26 PM
there is NO way this is true... who the f*** needs man bras?! seriously!
the worst investment ever.
if anybody buys it it'll be out of curiosity or as a prank.
but nobody will be a regular buyer
32. Cali - November 20, 2008 2:39 PM
@Gar, i utterly agree with you... not everything is fake... even if this one is lol
and i love the idea of flannel lol but i think blue would be better then pink... aswell as a "sports-bra" would be a more believe able idea, i have seen a balding old man go jogging with a sports bra once.... it was scary... and funny.
and yes, the cup size is much too large for MOST guy's t***.
33. Lynz - November 20, 2008 3:18 PM
Pink? Underwire? You know girls wear bras for multiple reasons. ALL of which a guy does not need to worry about, because he doesn't have two sensitive fat balloons hanging from his chest at all times. Guys have flat chests unless they're fat. Why any guy, ever, would need this is beyond me. And I don't want to feel like a lesbian by taking off my boyfriend's bra.
This is actually insulting. There's some things that are meant for girls, as in bras. It'd be as useless as a chick wearing a cup.
P.S. Daisy was funny for the first few posts, now it's just annoying as f***.
34. Tina - November 20, 2008 3:19 PM
Can you imagine getting busy with a guy and then its naked time, and he takes off your bra... then you have to take off his? Talk about a buzz kill!
35. GoldenfrankO - November 20, 2008 4:40 PM
That... is just... Wrong.
36. cd - November 20, 2008 5:20 PM
the reason i read these comments is for daisy's post
rofl, don't stop now
37. SPELLINGNAZI - November 20, 2008 5:47 PM
No shit, "NBDism"? Daisy's got a term now? Talk about a cult following! Admit it...every person who reads these comments, posting or not, would miss them if she stopped posting them.
38. Spider - November 20, 2008 6:57 PM
What? No, this is ridiculous... somethings were invented for woman... like bras! It's like if they made a cup for girls... UNNECESSARY!
39. Dandi <> - November 20, 2008 7:13 PM
Looks like im going to have to make room for a new draw i the closet...then come out of it!
40. morris young - November 20, 2008 8:30 PM

41. Connie - November 20, 2008 11:55 PM
Seems fake just because the hunky model in the pictures isn't even wearing the manbra...
42. konstance - November 21, 2008 12:19 AM
WHY PINK
43. Ade - November 21, 2008 3:38 AM
Amazingly, they didn't get the model to actually wear the male bra.
44. Jes - November 21, 2008 4:52 AM
ROFL. I wouldn't mind seeing guys wearing those. HAHAHAHA.
45. Kenny - November 21, 2008 10:42 AM
lol nice reference to Fight Club Daisy, how do people get angry at your comments? i just dont understand how your comments make people so angry i mean just skip over it no big deal. Get angry at the people who put first or second and thats all into their comments, i mean its so pointless
46. Thumperchica - November 21, 2008 11:29 AM
@38 - the do make a version of the cup for girls, to protect the pelvic bone during contact sports...
47. JohnnyIrish - November 21, 2008 1:15 PM
This a trend I've been noticing.. and personally I find this modern feminization of men disturbing and disgusting.
48. CaptainJugglebug - November 21, 2008 7:24 PM
where can I order?
49. uzshka - November 23, 2008 2:40 AM
The Japanese says:
"It began with one thing a customer said.
"Why is there no mens bra?"
Because it is not necessary?
But... there are people who want it, so it is necessary"
50. dudemasterym - November 24, 2008 11:30 AM
Some people are really messed up.
51. SHEN - November 27, 2008 9:12 PM
