What is "belly"?
The belly, also known as the abdomen, is the visible and protruding area of the abdomen. It is the soft and rounded region that lies between the chest and the pelvis. The belly can vary in size, shape, and contour among individuals, influenced by factors such as body composition, muscle tone, and overall health. It serves as a focal point for aesthetics and body image, often associated with notions of attractiveness, fitness, and body confidence. The appearance of the belly can change over time due to factors like weight gain or loss, pregnancy, or age-related changes. The belly is a prominent external feature of the human body, carrying both cultural and individual significance.
