Men concerned about the size of their breasts are opting for breast reduction surgery in record numbers, delighting plastic surgeons.
A meeting of UK plastic surgeons was told that over the past 5 years breast reduction surgery for men has increased 1000%, with the operation now the fifth most popular cosmetic surgery for men.
Plastic surgeons are delighted by all the new business:
“We are seeing men of all ages coming in to have their breasts made smaller. They are losing their inhibitions about the operation and deciding to undergo an operation which previously was a women’s operation.”
In 2008 alone a thousand men underwent the procedure, which costs in the region of $1,700.
The other top operations are nosejobs, eyelifts, ear corrections and liposuction. The popularity of penis modifications is not mentioned.
The UK has one of the highest rates of obesity in the world, with 2003 UN estimates suggesting 23% of the population is obese, only beaten by Mexico with 24% and the US with some 31%.
For some reason the plastic surgeons fail to mention the utility of losing weight in reducing breast size…

wtf why can't people just stop eating crap!?
Because it's "genetic".
yeah keep fooling yourself to make you feel better...
while there's a genetic predisposition, it's mainly a problem caused by bad eating habits in your childhood
it has to do how fat cells work and how after exceeding the limits of those cells in early ages makes your entire body work accordingly to that excess of fat later on.. also true for skinny people
bitch tits...
I think there was some sarcasm in Kai's words already.
Because no1 is willing to stop judging other, everyone wanna be good looking so other people won't look down on them...
It will stop when human is extinct...
"yeah keep fooling yourself to make you feel better..."
I think this anon is a little slow on the sarcasm intake.
Man beewbs...
tsk tsk anon
I LOL'd. SRSLY.
May i sing "Pettan pettan tsurupettan"?
if you eat nothing your going to lose weight no questions.
amen to that
Hmmm, men only get bitchtits when they've got a fat beer-belly. If that's big already, what's the point in reducing breast size? O.o
Because in America the cheapest food is not meant to fill you up since you lose market share if people don't want to eat anymore
Because in Britain food is quiet punishment for the various crimes against humanity they perpetrated during colonization. Hence when they eat anyone else's food it's ambrosia and they can't get enough.
Because in Mexico they sit around all day thinking of new ways to add cheese to "A flour tortilla, ground beef, lettuce, and tomatoes". God bless them for it though
goddamn i am mega lightweight then
i can't even do a burger and fries without filling up halfway through
God bless Mexico.
I don't know what I'd do without Taco Bell.
Taco bell sucks. I can make it better than that
So you're saying you can suck better than them ?
Ugh. Taco Bell is Tex-Mex, not Mexican! *baka*
What you described for Mexico is actually an American dish. My friend from Mexico City, Mexico says there's no such thing as what U.S. calls "tacos" in Mexico.
They should go all the way and become women. It's a hype in UK anyway. ^_^
not to my knowledge. I'm in the UK. only people I know of that have done that are the lady-boys of bangkok. Who arnt originally from the UK O_o
I see what you did there.
It sure seems that way as of now.
Because that would make to much sence.
because itz DELICIOUS!!!
Because we Americans have shit in our water that makes us fat by defying the laws of nature. No kidding. If someone was exposed to the chemicals in infancy, they would gain 30% more weight from eating the same amount of food as someone who wasn't exposed.
I'm just wondering when bras for men will become more commonplace.
you mean bros :P
Cool story, bra.
I believe it's called a manssiere
Yay, US leads with 31%. No one's gonna take the crown from us.
Maybe I should get my breasts reduced.
I don't know about the UK and Mexico, but in the America, the food industry has structured itself to have cheap crappy food that is advertised to people constantly. Try watching TV in America without seeing some plastic burger and sexy music trying to get you to eat yourself into a coma. The big companies load their products with semi addictive ingredients and lots of calories in an attempt to make Americans fatter, and hooked on their products.
Food industry reform should be a top issue as soon as the economy recovers. It would drastically lower the cost of health care, and would actually solve the main problem as opposed to the "fat tax".
Actually, when the same standards that Americans use are applied to Europe, Americans are not the fatest. They aren't even in the top 50% of "most obese Westerners". If you want to compare two things, you need to use the same system of meausurements and standards.
But thanks for playing.
this is scary beyond anything i've heard so far...great pick BTW
I am still in a shock too.
Lotsa Jun this week, huh?
Yep, moar Jun goodness :3
+1
Also, BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
+2
Moar Jun Watarase please.
+3
all hail jun
+4
Maybe all these articles are just an excuse for Artefact to post moar Jun pics xD
+5
Coincidentally enough again, all of these delicious Jun pics are drawn by Yomogi..
Well it is his birthday this week (or today)
Just reducing the size of the breasts doesn't make the rest of the body looking better too.
omg, UK is full of freaks.
no, india is
No all the world is.
Man what you got against India, out of the blue.
Man what you got against India, out of the blue... aside from my bothersome Indian man boobs (I wish they'd wilt and fall off).
India has the most genetic problems. Dont you ever watch National Geographic?
Maybe it's because of the hormones that is injected into the livestock that we consume everyday or it may be the cause of evolution that enable's men to grow breast. If not why would men have nipples initially?? There is also a possible of men producing breastmilk if the breast are sucked long enough.
Don't eat a whole hormone-laden cow every day, and your manboobs are going to magically disappear!
your chicken also hormone laden. Just be vegetarian and your manboobs will "poof".
lol no, soybeans actually contain plant estrogen that'll make you get growth-manboobs( as opposed to just fat).
yeah.... >_>..
Also pollution. The male chromosome is getting stunted. Testicles closer to your body, other feminine traits and these breasts then add in obesity.
Don't forget BPA and other estrogen-like chemicals in plastic, can linings, and just about everything else.
im strnagely aroused by this pic...we all know whats under those panties...
Another watarase jun pic huh?
DELICIOUS FLAT CHEST
On a fat old man. DO NOT WANT.
Gawd, i rather agree to transexuals paying surgeons for a boobjob than men who request man-breast removal just because they can't stop taking junkfood as daily meals and do some push ups..
And guess what! That statistic includes all you fat otaku freaks who plague this site!
Might also explain why the lot of you are still single!
Not really... Otakus aren't actually fat since they love to forget to eat being the whole time busy with their hobbies.
this is true
And some of us are starving to death because we can't go outside
True. Sometimes i don't even eat.
We are not even bad looking actually. Loy's of us look just fine. It's just that 3D women seem so much trouble and on top of that we are really shy.
Sorry sir, but it's obvious you failed.
1/10
If guys are like women (regarding weight-loss), the FIRST place excess weight comes off of is the breasts!
Exercise more!
If these guys were 2D, i 100% bet you guys are gonna fap on it, and seriously speaking i am so perplexed about how you guys think. I mean what's the fucking big, significant difference between 2D and 3D when the case is the same? if its 2D, you'd love to fap w/ it, if it's reality check, you puke on it. You guys amazed me to no limits.
wut? no seriously wth are you talking about? I dare you to point one article on sancom that has fat 2d male galleries and galore comments that praises them.
If you can't, then go ahead and try to convince yourself and your best friend (your pinky toe) the opposite.
MOAR EXERCISE!!!!!
LESS JUNK!!!!
MOAR EXERCISE!!!
SO MOAR FAPPING!!!
Seriously: I love to see Jun on the front page, but the headlines are getting more and more scarier :|
Gee, it sure is Jun around here... and that's never a bad thing.
moobs = disgusting
I HAZ BEEN TRICKED. I saw the link to this from Channel which said "1000% Rise in Breast Reductions" with that lovely image.
At first I was like "FUCK YES DFC"
But then I went =(
reason this is happenign is that public water filtration systems don't clean out Estrogen(a primary ingredient in birth control medicine) as a result the lion share of tap water world wide is laced with Estrogen
and that ladies is why you shouldn't flush your expired Pills down the loue
Unrelated, but the Fullscreen button for nico flash player, please put it back Artefact!
That is nothing to do with us. And don't randomly ask questions in the comments, use the forums.
So many Jun images these days. Birthday or something?
Make a diet, fat asses. This applies to myself too, but I won't do surgery over something like this.
Anon You are correct going on a diet works a lot better then just going in for surgery
Well, if you can "just" go make a surgery like you can cut your hair and fingernails, go ahead. I am aware many surgerys aren't risky, and don't have any chronic drawbacks, at least none which have been found out yet. But it still shouldn't be taken lightly. Also, what are they going to if that fat returns? I bet it will for the most, since they won't watch more for their health as they did before.
Plastics leech estrogen mimicking hormones...
lol man boobs don't women love them sometimes heh
What woman doesn't love a good pair of breasts?
OP pic made me fap
Man tits.
Is that purple haired tranny loli gonna be the new mascot for whenever a UK story pops up here?
Well I can assure you those males didn't have any muscles on their chests or stomachs like a body builder has or someone who is just healthy. The probably did have real 'fat tissue' breasts.
Actually, man boobs =/= fat. It's about hormonal imbalance that leads to the glands growing bigger. This may be caused by the food you take in, but it's also possible that you just happen to have a hormonal imbalance (in whitch case it's likely genetic). It can happen especially during puperty. It's relatively common for a adolescent boys to have growth leading to teen-tits. For some this growth is only temporary, but for some the tits wont shrink even after reaching maturity.
Having man boobs can be socially disabling. You may be lean but still have your tits sticking out off your shirt.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gynecomastia
a.you skinny pricks have no idea of the complexity and pain of the obese.
b.it ain't all fat man. Marijuana can case this in skinny men.
True, if it's breast tissue you can diet all you want - it won't go away. However many doctors combine the tissue removal with liposuction when the patient is obese since there is too much fat underneath too.
Also if you look around in bodybuilder forums you will regularly find threads about gynecomastia surgery (+tips to hide the fact that you used roids from your doctor to get surgery approval).
More traps! Wooo!
i blame those hormones they injected to our meat we consumed... but then why women didnt get the same benefit?
That's a kind of creepy excuse to get a day off of work. >>
And for some reason, it's kind of hard to believe there's more obesity in Mexico than the UK.
we need more Training with Hinako!!
It's due to female hormones from birth control that can't be filtered out of the recycled waste water, so it ends up coming back out of the tap and men end up drinking them.
That, and eating/drinking bisphenol-a leeched from plastic containers.
If you wanna lose weight, I recommend what worked for me. It's called the "Move to Japan Diet."
Before I left the US two months ago I weighed 220lbs. After 2 months living in Japan, living my daily life which involves a lot of walking, and eating whatever I want for my meals, I've lost 30 pounds. You have to really try to be fat here, not to mention pay a lot of money cuz you have to eat McDonalds or red meat like every day, and that shit gets expensive.
There you have it :3
You too? Awesome.
I used to be 180lbs, and went down to 140-ish in a few months (exercise is almost guaranteed due to long walking distances and self-catering.
Ha its the UK again, is this artefact's new country to bash?
Hahaha, these trap picks are hilarious.
lol fucking fat asses, just stop eating
So, uh, what do they do with the moobs once they've been removed? Is there a bucket or something? God damn, that's an unpleasant thought.
23%? no way lol
Unless their definition of "overweight" and "obese" are far off the scales than I imagine, this value is too damn low from what I see on streets.
They could save thousands by hitting the track.
This is really sick. Not to mention desperate. can you imagine squeezing their own tits coz "we can't get some?" Bleh.
So now men are officially incapable of firing "oppai missile"
oh well, we'll still have bukkake blast
you could actually exercise? Men generally lose fat way faster than women from exercise
....how hard is it to work out for 30mins. You can even watch t.v as you do it......but this does make me laugh.
That's probably the best way to GAIN weight.
