According to Meredith Small, Human Nature Columnist for LiveScience, the above photo supposedly shows Harrison Ford wearing a man-bra. She claims, "Ford is dressed in a pair of black pants and a slate blue T-shirt that shows off his buff mid section. But that T-shirt also reveals the shadow of what has to be a manzeer, in the parlance of Seinfeld."
I still don't see it, but whether or not Harrison Ford shops at Victoria's Secret is not the point here. The real issue is why do men have breasts in the first place?
They have them because men start out as women.
As much as men hate to hear this, the human fetal blueprint is initially female. We all begin as a ball of cells that quickly differentiates into various body parts. At five weeks of gestation, the fetus sports a neural tube that eventually become the spine, but other than that, we all look like a wad of chewing gum. Then at six weeks' gestation, the outlines of eyes, arms, legs and a face (and let's not mention the tail that also shows up for a while) appear.
In other words, men have breasts and nipples because they already had them before they became male.

Like every self-respecting geek, I went and saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull this past week, and while I had prepared myself for a disappointing outcome, I left the theater more confused and conflicted than anything else. It isn't bad, but at the same it isn't very good. It's Indiana Jones, but at the same time it isn't. That's not to say the movie doesn't do some things well, but every time the movie takes one step in the right direction, it takes two steps back. So what did the movie do wrong? See for yourself:
Just a quick note: There are obviously spoilers in this list, so if you haven't seen the film, consider yourself warned.
1. The gopher
I have to get this one out of the way first, because it's the first thing that will likely piss people off about the film. When the movie opened with a shot of a CG gopher, I actually heard someone in the theater say "God damn you George Lucas!" It wasn't Jar-Jar, but it was bad. It's a sign of how little faith I have in Lucas anymore when I almost expected the gopher to start dancing to Kenny Loggins music a la Caddyshack, marking my cue to exit and give up on the film altogether. Little did I know that the CG rodent was only the beginning of Indy 4's problems.
Read on for more reasons that Indy 4 sucks.
