"Man-Ups"


Mmm mm mm! Merry Christmas to us, right ladies?!
...Well... maybe not so much. But how can you not love these hilariously un-sexy photos by 26 year-old photographer Rion Sabean (fun fact: He's the model with the drill and the blue background!).

For the shoot, Sabean rounded up a few "Average Joes" and dressed them so they appeared to be the epitome of masculinity (lumberjack, athlete, etc.) then juxtaposed the look by posing them in classic Vargas-style pin-up poses. Funny how a surprised facial expression and legs in the air translate so differently on a man, isn't it?

Let's be honest, men have it pretty easy when it comes to looks and that's the way it should stay. Gentlemen, please-- No pouting, arching your back, or pointing your toes (unless you're trying to make us laugh). As unfair as it is, it's true: we girls like you best when you pretty much just stand there!
