"Lately the fashion sphere has been overflowing with bizarre undergarments that were once the sole domain of those of us who possess XX chromosomes: First came Jenny&amp;#x27;s report on &amp;quot;mantyhose,&amp;quot; followed by the completely ridiculous news of the real-life &amp;quot;bro,&amp;quot; and now (prepare yourselves!) we&amp;#x27;ve got...the mirdle. What is it? According to The Cut, who apparently follows this type of thing rather closely, the &amp;quot;mirdle&amp;#x27; is a man-girdle. It comes in both boxer brief and regular brief, and while it&amp;#x27;s really meant to help with compression in men with back problems, The Cut suspects (and I have to agree) that it&amp;#x27;s going to be put to other, more vanity-driven uses. Spanx for guys, if you will. Do you know anyone with a beer belly who could benefit from having one of these tucked into his stocking this Christmas? Or do you guys just find this concept utterly ridiculous? What do you think about the new man girdle? ( surveys)"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
