Bull testicles are all wrinkly and...well...ewwwwwwwww.
Anyhoo - why can't pear-shaped mean big shoulders teeny hips?
Pears can be drawn both sides up!
Or from the rear......( * )

Not just women. The same apple and pear terminology is used to described men when you're looking into some health journals. The different health risks of the pear and apple shaped bods blah blah blah
the "it's gone pear-shaped" thingie doesn't seem to have any relation to any of that though
