Ponder, for a moment, the shape of your backside. For most guys, this is something we're not normally focused on, assuming since pre-adolescence that the only part of our abdomen where size matters is the section you can't show on TV -- ever, not even on HBO.

But what if firm, hearty buttocks are just as important as the girth of your manly bits? Should you start exercising -- or eating lots of junk food hoping the weight won't wind up in your thighs?

You could. Or you grab yourself a pair of Andrew Christian underwear. The designer's latest line utilizes "Flashback - Butt Lifting Technology," which, as the name suggests, lifts and contours your dudely derriere. This, according to the product page, means up to 1" of extra ass with "no embarrassing padding, hidden cups or straps."

This sounds great and all, but let me tell you something. If you have even considered putting pads in your skivvies, there is no chance you will date anyone ever again.
