    Stay turned for my piece on Sandcank Tigers, where I detail the women who try to get men who wear sandals with cankles to attempt to get to second base with them only to have them get rejected and cry like the vulnerable, cankle-having, sandal-wearing sissies they are.

    BURY ME.

    I like the double wordplay. It just works: "He," check. "Heave," check; it does frequently induce nausea.

    I don't understand where that term came from. Is it supposed to be "heavage" like a manly heaving chest? Or is it really supposed to be "he-vage" as in he's a he? Because the latter seems more childish and sorority-girl, and would appear to better fit this topic.

    @seyswho: It's originally a Native American term that translates as "Bedecks Himself in Tom Jones' 70s Attire."

    I am hardly one who keeps up on every new fashion trend, though that's tempered by living in Los Angeles and seeing them happen early on in the overall gestation period... BUT, isn't the whole man cleavage thing about three years old at this point? Why is it reaching media saturation at this exact moment? Is it a second wave?

    Nevermind. I'm retarded and this was covered in the post.

    @MyNameIsChris: Too bad the "Great Appalachian Happy Trail" trend pioneered by mewling troubadour Devendra Banhart and various Silver Laké dudes didn't catch on. It's kind of hot.

    @snugbug: That is horrible. Though I have wondered why pubes haven't worked their curly selves into more trends. I keep expecting to turn on the Oscars and see Nicole Kidman with a big patch cut out of her gown.

    Meanwhile, I think Devendra needs to either show the brillo or the happy trail, but not both. Both feels like the first and last pages of a novel printed side by side.

    @Steverino Begins: I dunno.. From a hetero female POV, I find the combo of a hairless chest dotted by erect nipples and a bushy maquis down below pretty attractive. That being said, I want to strangle Devendra once he opens his mouth.

    I don't understand the "eavage" part of heavage. A dude showing off his chest is one thing, but if he has actual cleavage going on, that is something entirely different.

    I think what we're seeing here is continental trichotomy of man-cleavages. Heavage would be the North American phenomenon, marked by the emetic reaction evoked by its name that is often produced in those exposed to it. Hecolletage would the slightly easier to stomach European manifestation. And, of course, the Latin invasion of hescote is the easiest on the eyes.
