"The waist is the part of the abdomen between the bellybutton and breasts." What, no it isn't! It's below the bellybutton.

Are you talking about the hips? Also the picture isn't that good. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.216.148.132 (talk) 20:28, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I thought that the waist is the narrowest part of the torso, which is normally a bit above the navel. The young man measuring himself isn't at his waist, that's his hips... 86.176.15.88 (talk) 23:45, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Must be a matter of perception, then. I always assumed that the waist (on men) was the line where your belt would fit the best, which means that since his belt is a bit lower, he's measuring too high. 63.87.189.17 (talk) 14:48, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
