'Cankles'---msn
Add "cankles" to the list of body parts women are supposed to worry about. We found more on this "flaw," why some people -- mostly women -- are so worried about it and what can be done about them.
What are they? "Cankles" is a combination of the words "calf" and "ankles." If you can't tell where your calf stops and your ankle starts, you may have cankles. (Search for pictures.)
Where did it start? No one knows exactly who first uttered the term "cankles," but the subject came up in a well-known episode of "Friends" back in 1995. (Which episode?)
The natural remedy: Some fitness experts say certain workouts can help. This gym dedicated a whole month to them.
Under the knife: Some women choose plastic surgery. (What are they doing?)
Stylish solution: Maybe the easiest way to get rid of cankles -- or at least the appearance of them -- is to dress around them. (Search for fashion tips.)
Guys can have them, too: The term "mankles" was used to describe "man cankles" in a 2007 episode of "Weeds." (What was it about?)
Not to be confused with: The Lithuanian stringed instrument known as the kankle
