So in a bit of shallowness, I’m probably the only gay guy who doesn’t like fancy underwear. By fancy I mean the alphabet of colors and cuts that seem to be prominent today. First, I am not bashing anyone, and if you comment keep it to the post not personal bias. kthanks.
I just don’t get into perky panties as I like to call them. Granted, I also don’t wear the old school briefs that were often “generously” cut. lol I’d say it’s just my age but I’ve always disfavored them. Maybe it’s because I see them as flashy and I’m not a flashy kind of guy. I can see if you’re going to an event where your undies will be showing ie an underwear party, but in everyday life what is the point?
Me: I’m a standard boxer brief guy or commando. If I’m gonna wear undies, I want’em to fit w/o making me look like a WB cartoon character. I don’t need a bunch of cuts and rainbow of colors.
What about you? You a boxer, brief, or boxer-brief kind of guy? And if do you like the fancy ones, why?
Boxer-brief guy here as well. Whatever colors come in the package works for me. I will admit that I never thought those fancy underwear were meant for me in the first place.
I wear briefs. Mostly cause they make my junk secure. When it comes to more elaborate undies, I like them if they make my junk look good. I mean I don't have a flattering body, but if my junk looks good in undies then I feel good wearing them. 🙂
I usually wear boxer briefs or trunks. I got into boxers for awhile, don't do old fashion briefs. I usually just get what's on sale at khols or target though. I don't see the point in spending 20 plus dollars on a pair of undies nobody is gunna see except when I change in the gym 🙂
Plain ol' black Champion boxer briefs from Costco. Probably the modern equivalent to granny panties, but hey, ain't no one checkin' out my junk these days but me.
I do like me some perky panties, but I'm not willing to shell out 30 bucks for some manties that only look good on porn star underwear models. A well-worn, comfy old jock (and a cockring) always does the trick when I wanna feel sexy under my jeans or khakis, but if the fit of the jeans is right, then it's freeballin' time.
Boxer briefs. When I joined the Coast Guard, a hundred years ago it seems, we were issued cotton boxers and I HATED THEM. They were SO uncomfortable, always bunching up in different places – ugh. Although I did enjoy looking at morning wood of my fellow Coasties in the head first thing in the morning.
Boxers in tartan patterns for me
I wear Boxers and occasionally on the weekends I go commando. I use to wear basic cotton boxers (Hanes) but have discovered ExOfficio Give-N-Go Boxers and fell in love. Yep they are prices and fancy but I love 'em!
I'm like you. I'm not into fancy man panties either. Mostly because of cost. Admittedly I have a couple of pairs of the designer type underpants that were gifts. But they are not wild or funny prints. But 98% of my underwear is Hanes boxer briefs. Otherwise the beast roams free.
I believe that for everything there is the right tool for the job; just as much as I am a full believer that men have been bastardized and looked down upon because of their penis and testicles and as such have come to a place where they don't even realise the importance of taking care of their bodies; especially their dick and balls.
Society does not shun women and their underwear/lingerie habits; regardless of your sexual orientation or identity, yet when it comes to men wearing underwear that actually is built to accommodate their physiology the negative connotations ensue.
Even in the good old fashioned days, a women could be shown with her breasts protruding her outfit yet a man had to wear over baggy boxer shorts so that not even the slightest hint that he had a penis or testicles, was evident.
A women has breasts which protrude from her body and as such wears a bra to accommodate this anatomy as well as support it.
Guess what boys – you have a dick and balls that protrude from your body – what is your problem with wearing a garment that addresses and supports that fact.
No you don't always have to wear the flashy patterns, but really? You buy your jeans that fit you, you buy your boots that fit you, why the fuck do you have a problem with buying the underwear that fits you and addresses your needs.
Undergarments came into existence because they were easier to launder (for all classes) than their clothing. Their purpose was ONLY to act as a barrier between the body and the clothing.
I will wrap this up quick, yes there is that time where a women will wanna take off her bra (I urge you to go for a proper fitting) and dudes wanna let their junk roam free.
I do have what I call cookie cutter undies – they offer no support and their ONLY function is to cover me from exposure. Just as a women would wear a t-shirt but still not wear a bra.
I also find it curious that a dude that has an issue with a "fancy" pattern on his underwear will spend an extra $500 on the paint job he gets on his car. REALLY?
So after all that – here it is — buy underwear that takes care of your business and throw away any connotations you may have. Trust me you will be way happier…
Here are two links you might find interesting….that I did NOT write…

And just for the record – the word panties makes me shiver — I likes me all kind of undies, I will wear briefs, boxer briefs, trunks, thongs, g-strings, long johns and jocks.
The right tool for the right job or mood…
Happy hanging boys!
I wear ONLY Adidas Flex 360 Climacool (black with Sith Red trim). It is an athletic underwear that keeps Slab from swinging out of place and thrawts "Swamp Ass" that afflicts people like Jimbo. I feel powerful in these underwear and start the day ready to get kick ass in the boardroom and on the tennis courts. FEAR ME! 🙂
White boxer briefs. They don't ride up and I wash them all in hot (with bleach if needed*).
* At my age you appreciate the stains so you can tell the front from the back.
I don't care for the fancy underwear either. Regular old briefs for me. However, mine are mostly black…just not the fancy colors or cuts.
boxer briefs….mostly adidas (but I'm not brettcajun…..thank you!). But I have a few jockey ones too. Whatever is on sale. I'm not making a statement….just holding my junk up.
Boxers or Pouch boxer briefs (or long johns when snowboarding), all Jockey, all the time. Haven't been commando in a while. Those fancy panties that Brett wears only look good on my floor.
