Guys-Who Buyes That Weird Underwear?

Nobody wears the hybrid boxer briefs? I am happy that Fruit of the Loom recently came out with some more interesting designs. All I currently have is grey, black, or red.

Hula girls? Dammit, I can’t find hula girl boxers anywhere. My silk flamingo boxers are great though.

And why do I wear 'em? Because I like them, and it’s always nice to know that if you ever need to drop your pants at least you’ll look stylish. It happens to me more than you’d think.

Mr. Bawlmer wears boxer briefs exclusively. I love them. Lots of different colors, including a pale pink. Those used to be white, but there was an incident with a red t-shirt. :slight_smile:

I wear cheap Wal-Mart boxers that come in a colorful variety of patterns. Though mine are plain grey at the moment. What I don’t like are these new “softer” boxers. They’re very comfortable, but the material isn’t strong enough and it tends to ride up, especially when I get all sweaty.

CelticCowboy, I bought the hula girl boxers from a local store in the Fells Point section of Baltimore a couple years ago. Tell me your size and if I run across them again, I’d be more than happy to pick up a pair for you.

It would be nice to give them to someone who would appreciate them!

I wear boxer briefs only…in whatever color i happen to grab out of the drawer.

I don’t know buy any of the strange varieties of underwear.

I do have boxers in colors, but most are plaid. I also have some solid white ones, too. I like the plaid ones better. Normally, I wouldn’t buy solid color boxers, unless they didn’t have enough plaid ones in my size (thus the white boxers)

My son sure does love his boxers. Wild crazy patterns, creatures, whatever. He’s 13.

I like my briefs. Black, dark blue, maybe a nice gray. Real gray, out of the wrapper.

I own one pair of boxers. They have immense yellow smiley faces all over them.

Don’t ask. :smiley:

I do not understand why men wear boxers; they are comfortable only under skirts.

Boxers can be print, but briefs must be solid, preferably white; and if they are white, they must be white (laundry instruction available upon request.)

Women steal men’s holey underwear because they make great dust cloths and paint rags.

(Men steal women’s holey underwear because they are sick.)

And when a man removes his pants in my presence, I’m not planning on stopping to admire his fine fashion sense in undergarments.

In answer to your orignal question, I always assumed that women buy them for their partners as either a revenge or pre-emptive strike against any nasssssty acetate so-called lingerie their mate might inflict on them.
(But then all MY undergarments are white, black, or sweatsuit gray; except for the one beige bra necessary for my interview silk blouse.)

Where can I buy flamingo boxers? (If you tell me, I promise I will keep them and not torture my husband with them.)

I’m a boxer gal myself when it comes to guys. The funnier the pattern, the better, although I find that the plaid type patterns are kinda hot!

My roommate wears the classic tighty whities. I have asked him about the whole boxer revolution, but he doesn’t seem to like them. I can’t bring myself to buy him a few pairs, but I have seen him eyeing my cute little “womanly” boxers a few times, and despite repeated suggestions, he just can’t make the switch. He got a thong for his birthday as a joke, and it’s been in his top drawer ever since he got them in April. I have a bet with him that he will wear them someday when he is out of clean laundry, but he is a re-wearer at times, so we’ll see!

I am NOT fond of thong underwear on men.

THIS is why.

I’m a wiry litle guy, usually a small or 30-32. Somewhere around there. My e-mail is open here. Let me know and I’ll pay shipping and all that. You rock, just like a hurricane.

I got mine at Wal-mart. Black silk with pink flamingo print. Uber cool.

Because I want things other than tight cotton caressing my delicate underside. Boxers are one step above commando, so you get some airflow, but you’re still civilized.

what? did he sign up with one of those “ex-gay” groups??:smiley:

and do you think his choice in undergarments made him gay? ?:eek:
personally, I like either boxers or boxer-briefs, depending on how much support I need that day or at the time. when playing rugby or working out, I perfer the support. oh and BTW, I’m gay and have never worn bikini style underwear ever! too much taste for that. seemed to me that most of the guys who wore them when I was in the military, were the straight guys. :eek: hmmm?

Boxers! Boxers! Boxers!

Quietly cotton or screamingly silk.

Boxers!

Boxers, I say!

(I’m only being so vociferous about this, because I was bikini-guy until my early twenties, and now I’m overcompensating.)

Shiny blue bikinis, even. You’da laughed, I promise.

I’m sure there’s more, but that’s all I can think of at the moment.

Allow a question from a girl: Don’t you need a little more support than boxers allow?

ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!
MY EYES!!

That’s mean, Joe.

I saw that on another site, I should have known better that to click.

::sigh:: I have to admit here that I don’t wear any undies at all.

Oddly, I still own them (Boxer-Briefs are my preference) so that I can wear them for special occassions and to go to the doctor.

I once had an embarassing moment when a nurse told me to strip down to my underwear. From that point onward, I wore underwear for any event which might require light stripping.

I thought somebody would be enough of a smartass to make that comment… :wink: No, he’s still gay.

Nah, but the fact that he was…uhh…attempting to impress a different sort of group from the rest of the guys I knew…may have led to his preference.
And this was back about twelve or thirteen years ago, when homosexuality was still taboo to me. Before I knew better.
