Men can pad their nether regions, too
Apparently the back and the front:
• A defining centre back seam separates our butt pads creating an anatomically correct bottom for a more natural look.
• Our contoured front pouch, allows for comfort, style and support from the double layer of fabric…
• For first time optimum effect we suggest you put your jeans or pants on BEFORE you look in the mirror.
• The weight and fit of your pants compresses the pads — the most natural look is achieved with you pants on.

The incredible shrinking bride
Today's bride-to-be "wants everything to be perfect," says Heidi Allen,"They want their hair, nails and makeup all professionally done. They want a beautiful dress. And I hear from their mothers that they are almost all obsessed with their weight." Many customers order their dresses a size or two smaller than what they currently wear, she says, because they're determined to be thinner by the big day. Some go much further than that. "I've had to send some brides who ordered a size 12 to get alternations to make their dress a size 20," Allen says. "Luckily, I know a seamstress who's a miracle worker. But it's absolutely ridiculous, the denial I see in the salon." Ironically, she says, it's often the women with the least to lose who lose the most. "A lot of thin girls get obsessed with being even thinner," she says, "and end up coming in for their fittings looking like a rack of bones." Today's bride-to-be "wants everything to be perfect," says Heidi Allen,"They want their hair, nails and makeup all... more

Color me beautiful
This is an example of the magic photoshop can work on celebrities. Look at the makeupless photos, and then look at the photoshopped. Just a little different? Then watch as an ordinary woman is photoshopped to look like a Playboy model. This is the type of influence magazines have on the way women view themselves. It seems as though the standard for beauty is what you see in the magazines, but as women, we are comparing ourselves to fake, unrealistic images. This is an example of the magic photoshop can work on celebrities. Look at the makeupless photos, and then look at the photoshopped. J... more
