Bikinic arms race (n.) 


The intensely competitive process that has led in many parts of the Mediterranean, South America, Carribean and other sub-tropical regions of the world to women—and occasionally men—parading up and down the beach wearing little more than a strand of dental floss and a couple of sticking plasters. [Not that I'm complaining. — Ed.]

Abdomen envy (v.) 


The feelings of jealousy and irritation that are experienced by men or women when observing the flatter, more washboard-like stomachs of other members of the same sex. Often simultaneously accompanied by the sudden unpleasant realisation that you yourself used to look like that, and indeed could still look like that if only you didn't eat so much, drink so much and/or exercise so little.

Beer flap (n.) 


The unsightly mound of flab that overhangs the waistband of a man's trousers, often as a result of previous excessive consumption of beer, takeaway food and/or large quantities of crisps and snacks. Beer flaps are a congenital condition that typically sets in at around the age of 30, by which time the man has either forgone any concerted attempt at healthy living or rationalised that if he isn't thin already, it's too late to start trying now.

Belly flaps, waist wings or flab handles (pl. n.) 


Unsightly mounds of flesh that are visible just above the waistband as a result of a slightly portly woman who is wearing over-tight jeans that cause her excess flesh to be displaced to somewhere around the midriff. Immortalised in that oft-repeated maxim: ‘Check out the flab handles on that!’
