Somehow, the pics and the list of people who have been spotted wearing these -- things -- does not resonate with the phrase "man enough."

I'm assuming that they don't come with the Christmas ball sack ornament?

"they have started to take New York by storm, sported by the likes of Justin Bieber"
Ummmm..."Sandy" was a storm. Justin Bieber is a highly localized transient atmospheric disturbance.

Snork @ HogsAteMySister. I prefer men that look like men.

OMG. So gross. I would start laughing

Betsy, as a lifglong New Yorker let me reassure you (as you undoubtedly know already) that that statement is total bullcrap. I know I don't travel (thank all that's holy) in Bieber circles, but other than the Bieber/Lohan/Kardashian crowd you will never see meggings on a real person.

How sweet!

My dignity would never speak to me again.

Jeff...Thank you. I'm not a lifelong New Yorker but I've had a long life as a human being residing on Planet Earth in Galaxy MediaHyperbole, and based on that, I felt fairly confident in my statement.
P.S. If it ever DOES take NY by storm, you can always flee to Chicago; we'll take you in!

I've been looking at it again and I think it's Rob Schneider.

the real question is not are you man enough. the real question is why would you want to be "that much of a man" A real man's man, NTTAWWT

Throw a shearling coat on him and he could pass for a monkey.

Did you read the comments at the end of the article?
"Benny of Brisbane Posted at 8:49 AM Today
I personally wouldn't, not from being homophobic or shy, just that I dont want particular areas squeezed and tight, a reasonable amount of motion and flow should occur. If kilts were fashionable I would be all about the kilt!"
You just KNOW that judi is, as I type this, attempting to track down Benny of Brisbane!

Protip: If Russel Brand thinks something is a good idea, it isn't. Well, ok maybe breathing and eating are exceptions. Maybe.
