    It's been in use in bodybuilding circles for a long time...but this is the first I've heard for club use.

    I've never used it...for anything.

    It would be awesome to see some club douchebag OD on Preparation H.

    Wow, just wow. No seriously some poeple are complete idiots. Putting on prep H to get ladies, **** back in the old days (which apparently was yesterday) you needed personality, charm, and a bit of game to get a girl in the sack.

    Just another example of insecure "men" trying to get women to pick them for their looks because they feel that their personalities are inadequate. Sad stuff.

    f that they should find a way to turn their whole body into a hemorrhoid that way they can be swollen and shredded at the same time and the only time theyd put on prep h is to look normal for job interviews and such where being so swollen would scare the interviewer.

    Well the article is wrong. It's not used to drop flab, but some bodybuilders claim that it helps drop water. I've read articles where guys put it on their stomach, and then wrap their midsection with saran wrap to drop water for a show. From everything I've read, it will reduce water temporarily, but then water will rush back into the area and actually doing the exact opposite of the desired effect.

    I agree - but I wouldn't be going to the clubs to meet any chick I wanted a long term relationship with.

    Hey, not all of us can have "personalities" or be secure...

    Where's my Preparation H?!?

    We tend to think of Sisyphus as a tragic hero, condemned by the gods to shoulder his rock sweatily up the mountain, and again up the mountain, forever. The truth is that Sisyphus is in love with the rock. He cherishes every roughness and every ounce of it. He talks to it, sings to it. It has become the mysterious Other. He even dreams of it as he sleepwalks upward. Life is unimaginable without it, looming always above him like a huge gray moon. He doesn’t realize that at any moment he is permitted to step aside, let the rock hurtle to the bottom, and go home.

    Hey now, admission is the first step toward recovery!

    So the burning question now is how females feel about the traditional role of Prep H... do women like a tight behind or not?

    What's kinda sad is that I actually had a lot of problems with hemorrhoids as a child. Even had to try suppositories a couple times when I was young. Luckily I don't really have a problem with it anymore... actually maybe I still do have it but I'm just better at scratching than I used to be
