ok, this is sinking in the lounge. maybe here- moobs.

so, i wd like to put forward the word moobs as a generic word for male breasts, regardless of size, shape or desirability. it’s usually used as an insult, but i say we remove the stigma on this very useful word.
i like moobs. esp furry 1s. a former partner w a lovely pair got mad when i called them moobs. but breasts is of limited usefulness in this sitch, rt?

unless someone has a better word, up w moobs.

I used to do a hundred chest presses a day before COVID-19. I'm now back up to about seventy-five. I refuse to have, as Chandler Bing described them: "Big, saggy man-breasts."

I don't want to start seeing photos online about side-moobs, under-moobs, moob slips, and all the rest.

Yikes, now I have to unthink this!

'former partners' becoming PO'd and upset .. ? Might indicate this isn't quite the winning ticket?

'breast' works just fine. And, is labeling/naming pendulous tissue (waist, chin, arms) necessary - short of medical issue?

But I guess it's better than watching the boobs on Fox complain about the price of pumpernipple.
