The craze of body magic and wonder bra

Those women who wear simple and
proper undergarments, this article
is not about you. It is for those
women who are confused and
concerned and are leaning toward
spending their hard-earned money
on a magic garment that is being
peddled as if it can solve all that ail
them, only to be sorely
disappointed.

Every eight seconds, a woman looks
in the mirror and wants to be
smaller. I have a huge problem with
this type of women.

Whenever I meet people who pretend to
be what they are not, it gets under my
skin. When you present yourself as
something, you’re asking me to trust you
are exactly what you say you are. Why
would you then abuse the trust you asked
for with the goal of winning my heart?

That is not fair. A friend of mine
introduced me to a very hot chic at a bar
in Ikeja and after hours of hanging out
and getting to know each other, she
followed me home. All I could think about
was what she’d look like under all those
tight clothes, but when she finally
grunted her way out of those really tight
jeans and her body began to spread in all
directions, I suddenly had a headache
and didn’t feel so well and I gave her cab
fare home.

I mean, is this body magic thing for-real?
It is ridiculous. To think that someone
would honestly wear it instead of putting
the time and effort into actually losing
the extra pounds should be a personal
embarrassment. It’s really gone past
pathetic. The extreme to which our
women are going to capture an image of
beauty that is neither holistic, healthy nor
attractive is crazy. It seems so strange
that some ladies complain about not
being able to find sincere, honest and
real men when everything about them is
synthetic, processed and unreal. Ladies,
let me sell you a clue. If you find a man,
any man, who seems to be attracted to
women who have certain physical
attributes like fake hair, fake nails, fake
round bum-bum, fake flat stomach, fake
eyelashes and fake breasts, odds are he’s
a fake man. So if that’s what you’re
looking for (fake men), then that’s cool.

Leave the ‘real’ men to the ‘real’ women.

If my girl had to undress and all of a
sudden picked up 8 to 10 pounds merely
by taking off her corset, the attraction
would have ended immediately. Because it
is a fraud and I don’t get myself involved
with fraudulent people. What worries me
most is, how do you as a lady guard your
emotions from the reaction you will
inevitably receive when that look of shock
and disdain appears on the face of your
man after he sees those parts you’ve
been hiding under that body magic? If
you find yourselves that undesirable, why
would you expect a man to find you
desirable?
Let’s look at this thing called body magic
and the falsity around it. It makes you feel
you have dropped three dress sizes right?
Which basically means you’ll shave off
about three inches of fat in ten minutes,
firm up your abs, and boom, you’ve lost
all the extra weight. Yes girlfriend, a body
magic can reshape you. Wearing a corset
can change your bust-line, by raising the
breasts upwards and shaping them,
flattening the stomach, and improving
posture. However, these effects are only
temporary and will be lost on removing
the corset. Indeed, excessive corset
wearing has been claimed to weaken
certain muscles, making it more difficult
to maintain your shape. Another thing a
body magic can’t do is make a mound of
fat disappear. Using a body magic for this
purpose does nothing except shift mass
fat into a place it originally was not
supposed to be. Think about it, if fat was
supposed to be buried deeper into your
body, then guess what? God would have
put it there. It’s stored on the outermost
parts of your frame for a reason.
Squeezing into a body magic and hoping
it’s going to help permanently hide
whatever flaws your body may have is a
joke. And for Christ’ sake, the thing is so
uncomfortable and tight, that it makes
you unable to breathe or ease yourself
when pressed.

I am really sad that our ladies don’t talk
about healthy eating or exercise anymore.

Body magic is a temporary fix at best and
deceitful for that matter. Ladies, let’s be
truthful here, if you met a guy who was
wearing a muscle garment and once he
took his shirt off, he was all flab
underneath, won’t you be very
disappointed? Don’t get me wrong, I
don’t have a problem with a woman using
the garment in the process of losing
weight and wanting to look toned down
after childbirth. What I have issues with is
the fact that we in this country are all
about the quick fix. I think we should
know that looking good is not just about
hiding the body fat. And wait a minute, I
know some of you may actually think that
you don’t have to stop eating your
favourite fatty foods, because your body
magic will force you right back in shape.
You forget the fact that those foods are
unhealthy and lack proper nutrition for
the body. You also forget that those are
the same foods that got you in a
physically unfit figure in the first place.

Forget the fact that those foods aren’t
going to help you maintain that figure.

Should you magically obtain it, you don’t
want to sacrifice and take pains to
exercise. Doesn’t it surprise you that the
garment is called body magic, like
abracadabra? It can give you all you want
and you don’t have to sacrifice at all. My
dear, nothing works that easy.
Why not work harder to achieve a
permanent figure you are craving for? It
must be hard, or down right depressing
to walk around looking fine most of the
day, and then having to take off the fine
body suit and look at the undesired one
at night. It’s like you are trying to fool
yourself and others. Eventually, you’re
going to have to face the ‘fat’. Remember
when you take off that body magic,
gravity takes over! And no man wants to
buy an illusion. We all want the real thing.
It’s just sad that some Nigerian women
are so hell bent on instant gratification. It
would be beautiful to see you ladies
embrace yourselves as you are. If you run
like a rat, smell like a rat and look like a
rat, then guess what girlfriend, you are a
rat.
