Polish Belly-Roll? Some males in Poland rolling up their shirts.

Hi! I was in Zakopane this last weekend and I noticed something interesting - Polish males have a habit of rolling up their shirts so that their bellies roll outwards, like French women would do with their breasts on a nude beach.

While this is not something that you would see in the West, I appreciate that all cultures are unique and interesting.

Does anyone know how this cultural trend started?

This is not a trend, you have just seen a few weirdos.

Hmmm...I saw dozens of Polish males doing this.

I must admit....it was not the most ideal view, but it was most definitely a Polish trend.

dozens of Polish weirdos? Maybe they like doing it in Zakopane, last time I was there 26 years ago.

Probably your visit coincided with the annual conference of the Polish belly-rollers association.

Seriously, I haven't seen this, however Poland is the land of the bigos belly so perhaps they were just cooling their gut in the heatwave.

YES! The cooling of the gut is exactly what it is. And moreover, they seemed very proud of their bellies, the way women with big breasts are proud.
