Men getting bigger

According to Debenhams, sales of mens super-size clothing are growing so much that a size 5XL is being launched.
Shirts and jackets with a 64" chest and 20" collar are being sold.

Modern man is an average of 13st 2lbs and has a waist of 37",
but in the 1950's an average man's weight was 11st.6lbs with a waist of 34".

Sales of men's super-sizes are rising three times faster than general male clothing.

Would the gentlemen on here agree with these findings?

Re: Men getting bigger

Yes. I've been saying this for years. Most boys turn out to be bigger and taller than their Dads. My three sons look down on me! But much more of a problem is they can all beat me at arm wrestling.

Men might have got bigger but there seems to be a lot more bald men these days?

Re: Men getting bigger

Hi

We are al getting bigger, but obesity is a different issue, we are getting more and more obese, both sexes are and suffering the health problems associated with that.

As an aside, British women have the largest boobs in Europe and they are getting bigger more rapidly than they have done previously.
