LouieMen's Underpants
October 5th 2006 12:16
I'll be honest. Before researching for this post, I didn't know a thing about guys' knickers, apart from the epic ongoing battle between briefs and boxers, but after speaking to many of my male mates on the issue, I think I'm clued up enough to write a half-decent post on the major types of male underpants. Besides, I like boys, so I figure that gives me the right to blog about their buttwear.
We'll kick things off with this saucy fella in his black boxers. As you can see, boxers are designed with open, loose fitting legs and generally an elastic waistband. Many think boxers are a bit too balloony, but I actually think this can be a good thing - they're unpretentious and spacious. When it comes to this guy though, perhaps they're a little too spacious; clearly he took Xscape very seriously when the rapper chanted "all I wanna do is see ya bounce with me, bounce with me".
So here we have another gentleman doing some dirty dancing with his dacks off, but this one is wearing the arch enemy of the black boxers seen above: white briefs. The greatest asset of tighty whities is their support and cuppage of your assets. They're extremely useful to sportsmen; in fact, I'd say they'd be a necessity. However, if your legs are as white as this guys, I'd at least go for another colour. Or you could just opt for something else completely...something more like...
If you've never felt the comfy cling of this clever compromise between boxers and briefs, give it a try. You'll probably develop an addiction, they're that good!! Ok, so I'm being a little melodramatic, but my mate B made the change recently as he thinks they're good lookers, and in my humble female opinion, I wholeheartedly agree. I do prefer the shorter ones to the longer ones though; the long ones look kinda like bike pants. Along with their alluring aesthetic, boxer briefs share a common quality with regular briefs that further increases their appeal - as my mate A put it, "more support for his 'breast'". (I think he's a little reluctant to say the p-word when the b-word is so readily available). But he makes a good point - boxer briefs are excellent for secure storage of your family jewels.
Don't you boys give each other enough wedgies in high school?! I realise these are extremely popular with women and becoming increasingly more so with men, but they're just not my cup of chai latte. Let's move along to the next item on my undievangelism agenda...
My final point is more about how you should wear your undies, as opposed to what undies you should wear. Personally, I like it when guys have a bit of their undies peeking out of their shorts/pants/jeans - I think it's great. I'm not talking about Jamie-from-Big-Brother-style peeking (his undies positively HANG out), but I definitely don't mind a partial view like Freddie Ljungberg's. Boxer briefs are perfect for this look; my mate B likes the ones with a thick waistband, so your outer bottoms rest perfectly on them.

able to translate a letter from a soldier who had a post on Hadrian's well between England and Scotland. He was writing home to ask his wife to send him some "subligaria" AD 300.
