Threat of the Century

The Brossiere: Sad Joke or Humanitarian Effort?

Well, it’s like this.
See, people in Japan will buy anything. Including, apparently, bro-ssieres.

On the other hand, I can think of at least ONE man who could use this.

Does this make my ass look fat?

The secret is contouring, darlings.
