Revisiting the "muffin top" issue

For the "Attack of the Muffin Tops," post, I received several comments from folks on both sides of the issue.

York Dude wrote:

"Me likey! To me it says hey I'm not perfect but I'm not insecure either. That appeals to me."

Some folks out there enjoy the look. However, York Dude was mostly alone in his opinion here.

Several others said they could do without the flabalanche look. Here's a sample:

Gina wrote:

"I'm horrified but fascinated by the muffin top phenomenon.

Either these women are so clueless that they do not realize how disgusting they look, or they are more confident than the rest of us put together."

Sharon wrote:

"I went to a picnic-type event in October and as far as the eye could see, bulbs of female fat was hanging out all over the place.

Ladies please! Get an Ab-lounger and firm up or cover it up!"

Rachele wrote:

"I just recently found out it was called a muffin top.

I am not sure how appropriate that is considering that the top of the muffin is the most tasty piece of the muffin.

That junk does not look tasty."

York Dude did get some support from a commenter, Jenni, who shared her friend's view on the love handles that just keep on giving:

"A friend of mine has a theory, which he has shared after I mentioned that some people, even thin ones, wear pants that are way too tight or minishirts that are too short."

"His theory: Why not let them put themselves out there -- someone might like what they're showing."


So, I'm opening the floor up again on this one:

What do you think of the "muffin top" look?

Is it a do or a serious don't?
