Land of the "Underthings"

Boxers, briefs, boxer briefs, tighty-whiteys, bikinis, thongs (a.k.a. banana hammocks), commando...So many choices, so little information! Just as men have their preferences on what we women wear (or don't wear, I suppose), we have a few preferences of our own.

So, without further ado let’s address what goes on under your jeans.
 

You know where this is going, don’t you? I wish I didn't have to say it, but...They need to be inspected (and probably thrown in to a toxic waste container).

Yes, yes...I know we women have to do some inspecting of our own unmentionables. However, in our defense, I guarantee you that a majority of the women you know have certain pairs for certain situations. I kid you not. Just ask.

 

Moving on, here are a couple things to consider when evaluating this layer of clothing:

    1) If the waistband is barely hanging on to the rest of it, it's time to say goodbye.

    2) If the material is practically see-through and they weren’t made to be that way, let them go.

    3) If you’ve ‘marked your territory’ on them and it’s there permanently, why aren’t they gone already?

Before we move on to style, here’s a little thought to keep in mind:


There’s a reason we fawn all over the photos of Mark Wahlberg in his CKs…

...they look GOOD!


Now that we have that clear image, let's get some details in writing.

    1) Boxer briefs really are the way to go. Just like we ladies got used to the thread in our rears to eliminate panty lines, you’ll get used to the feel of boxer briefs (that is, if you’re not already wearing them. If that’s the case, see the guidelines above and then move on).

    2) If you are extremely opposed to the BB’s then make your choices wisely. Just like we have lots of options of color and fabric, you do too and we like a guy with versatility (and style, of course!)


        - Boxers made out of the t-shirt type fabric are nice to the touch as are silky ones.

        - The cheap-o ones you buy at Mal-wart just don't say, "HEY! Check me out!"

    3) Tighty-whitey’s are just a no unless you’re playing sports or you have a REALLY spectacular rear view. No one wants to see ya saggin' in briefs. Really.



    4*) Absolutely NO thongs! NO! Yikes. No.




I starred #4 because a reader previously commented asking about thongs and I responded saying, "if you can pull it off, by all means." However, here's the thing, you can't just spring that on a girl. If you drop trou for the first time and you're sporting a banana hammock, she's gonna go in to shock without proper warning. So, I beg of you, please take care when choosing what you wear under those fabulous new jeans you have!

I had no idea that these sort of things were going on in peoples minds! :) I prefer to go with the good old BOND's boxers.
