(KTVI) – A GQ writer took his sympathy for women and pregnancy a step further when he decided to spend nine weeks in a pregnancy simulation suit.

According to the Huffington Post, Benjamin Percy wanted to feel something that is “unavailable to men as parents.”

He got the suit, called a Mommy Tummy, from the Kanagawa Institute of Technology in Japan.  When he first suited up, the thought women would appreciate his efforts but quickly learned that it doesn’t duplicate swollen ankles, itchy skin or enlarged breast.
