Okay... just as this thread is getting buried, I thought of something. So, sorry to bring it back up, but it's a very important question!

So, I do not sport the FUPA. I know what it is and I know girls who have it. I may have a very tiny one as some of you say all girls do, but I sure don't see it.

But, now I have this terrible fear. I had no idea that this was such a huge problem for guys. My friends and I always snickered at people with really bad ones, but I thought we were just overly critical girls. What if, heaven forbid, later in life I develop a FUPA?!! AAAAHHHH!!!

What do girls do to get rid of these? Just standard crunches and Abs of Steel exercises?

I have been told by personal trainers that a fupa is almost impossible to lose, because a lot of it has to do with what your guts look like, and there's arent a lot of excersizes that specifically target that area anyhoo.

The only thing I can suggest is to maintain abs of steel for as long as you can. Don't get lazy because once you get a gut, it's hard to lose. Your abs are what hold your intestines in, so if you keep them strong, they'll do a good job of it. And it's correct that once you've had a baby you'll never totally get rid of fupa. I'm my mother's only biological child and she had me 21 years ago. She's super-buff and has abs of steel and she has a fupa. Sorry, boys. If you want us to bear your children, you'll have to deal with the aftereffects.

My aunt had one after having five children (I guess that'll do it to you.....). She was in very good shape after having all those kids. She was physically fit except for that one area. Her doctor said that the only way to fully get rid of it is through a tummy tuck. So, she had one.

Hey call me dense, but I still have no freakin idea what a FUPA is....I hope I don't have one. I have kind of a tummy, but I'm nowhere near fat. Where exactly is a FUPA? I'm getting paranoid!

OMG, why has this thread become all about insulting women's bodies and women freaking out about their bodies? Let's face it -- we all look different and we all like and are attracted to different people and different body types. Our bodies are all amazing things, capable of a multitude of pleasurable activities. Can't we just enjoy that, and lighten up on the FUPA thang?

Anyway, it's much more fun to talk about what closet freaks we all are. Who here enjoys bondage, anyway? ;)

Well maybe it's because guys don't wanna admit they enjoy circle jerks, tossing salad, snowballing, and other miscellaneous gross activities, so instead they'll try to bring up something else entirely unrelated!! My theory anyways....

;) giggle ;)

The other thing I have to say on the fupa subject is that I've more or less given up trying to have a teenage body. I look back at pictures of myself in early high school and I say, "I wish I were as thin as I was back when I thought I was fat." I sometimes get depressed about it, like last year when I was teaching high school and it was starting to be summer. I was walking through this school full of half-naked girls and thinking, "I used to have a 23-inch waist, I swear!" But then I realized that those girls aren't healthy. I'm trying to lose weight right now, but I know I'll never get back to where I was. And that's fine. I'm doing it because I want to feel better (physically-- my mental image is fine). I remember what it felt like when I was in shape, and I miss that. But losing weight or otherwise changing myself for a guy? Hell no! I'm at the point in life where I'm starting to glance around for the person with whom I'll spend the rest of my life. And that means, eventually, the person with whom I'll get old and nasty and wrinkled and have old-people sex. And if he's upset about a little future fupa now, I shudder to think what he'll say when I'm shrunken and gray.

OMG, swissmiss, you totally nailed it (ha ha no pun intended). The guys were getting all flustered so they're trying to change the focus to women's bodies to get us all insecure.

I say we discuss things that could go wrong on a guy's body....
:D

What's bondage? Whips, chains, hand cuffs?

Yes. You are so young and innocent.

Matter of fact, let's talk about guy's FUPA. Hey, it is even the same acronym, lol.

Guys, y'all got em too, so don't even try to deny it. Some of y'all got to lift stuff up to find the goods. And then have the nerve to yap about a female FUPA, lol. Some of Y'ALL have some FUBAR FUPA's.

Yes, I can post this, because I am not sporting a FUPA. If and when I do, I'll probably take it to the gym.

I am not a big fan of male OR female FUPA's, like when the chicks buy those lowrider jeans and have a stomache balcony. Not cute.

And I agree with Valkyrie. Girls if you have a slight FUPA, a major
FUPA, or a full body FUPA (copyright lovelyivy, 2002), why are you worried? Love your FUPA! Embrace your FUPA! Or get to the gym and work it the hayle off. Whichever.

Yes. And let's be clear here:

Bondage & Discipline (B&D) is merely tying people up. Light forms of bondage usually involve blindfolds, scarves, ropes, or handcuffs. Heavy forms involve things like chains, etc. Heavy forms of B&D can lead to...

Sadism and Masochism (S&M), which involves pain. Masochists get off on being hurt. Sadists enjoy inflicting pain on others. Common S&M accessories include whips, paddles, etc.

Hmmm...an expert, are we? ;)

btw, Valkyrie, who says these people are "closet" freaks?? They post their business in broad daylight on GC and do not care! They are out and about freaks! :D
