>>18450440Male fat distribution is primarily to the gut. However, men in previous generations were more active so even if they got a gut it was on top of a frame with developed musculature.
Nowadays, men not only are less active, but many have NEVER been very active so you get fat guts on top of skinny frames. This gives a much more pronounced 'pregnant' seeming appearance. Lots of guys just sit around inside, drink too much, eat too much, and that catches up to them fast when they start hitting around 25-30.
It's the same problem for women, but women have historically focused on staying thin (avoiding junkfood and alcohol). Most fail, but there is more of a culture of 'staying thin' even as your metabolism slows. Men traditionally worked through this change and stayed fit with an active lifestyle even while they drank and ate shit food.
