    The same reason the female body does.

    That's music to the ears of your friendly local plastic surgeon. You either have to pay up or suck it up.

    I'm a female and struggle with the belly podge, it will hang on for dear life until the bitter end!

    I've got skinny arms, always have, and have never struggled losing thigh flub.

    It is the hardest to slim for you because you store fat there. Not the other way around.
    I store in my butt and legs and losing fat from my belly is easy.
    Also it is not gender related. Lots of women store in their belly and men in there butts too.

    If its where you have the most fat stored it is going to take the longest to slim down as you can't target where to lose fat from. And if you could target then you would look really weird being slim around the middle and not so much everywhere else.

    From eating too many calories! (Same reason it's stored all over the place.)

    It's no harder than anywhere else - you may just have a lot there and it won't show for a while - take progress photos and track your measurements to encourage and motivate yourself along the way.
