Mighty Tighty Whiteys

If your underwear is comfortable for you, then no one else's opinion matters.

I happen to think that briefs are very attractive. Of course, I've seen only one man in briefs live and in person (so to speak), so it's probably my bias toward the man in the briefs rather than the briefs themselves.
 
Boxer-briefs here too. From around high school I think. I own some briefs that I use for gym or similar, but never white. I tried boxers but I never found them really comfortable, so I guess I'm sold to what I have now.

I have always worn briefs, and always will.

Have you ever been able to forgive them ... for the death of your boy?



funniest thing i have read this morning :guffaw:

On topic, we dont have tighty whiteys here in australia, We do have briefs which we call jocks (different to a sporting jock) or boxer briefs which are jockey shorts and of course boxer shorts which are just called... um, boxer shorts.

for me im a jocks/jockey short guy, I tried wearing boxer shorts in highschool but didnt like the lack of 'security'.

Seriously! I don't know how I missed that! Brilliant! :lol:

Crazy Australians and your crazy underwear. :scream:

My hubby wears tighty-whiteys and only owns three pairs of boxers. I really WISH he would switch to the boxer brief.

The white briefs just look......unattractive...on a skinny 45 year old.

At night, however, he goes commando, so I don't get why he's so fond of briefs.
 
When I was young, most guys wore tighty-whities, or other colored briefs. NO one but grandpas wore boxers. :p

The husband wears briefs, but I've got him some boxer briefs and he seems to like them. They look nice. ;) I'm not buying him boxers, they still say "grandpa" to this kid of the 60s-70s.
 
I wasn't even aware there *was* a hybrid option. Maybe I'll try it. I doubt I'd like having my thighs constricted, but who knows.

You know, I get that - I had similar worries. But as long as you get the right size, they're wonderfully comfortable, providing a nice middle ground between the control of briefs and the freedom of boxers.

I sound like I'm writing commercial copy.


Maybe, but when you're right, you're right.

I switched sometime during the early 90's. I didn't like the anarchy of boxers and didn't like the tight confines of briefs. Boxer briefs are the perfect middle ground. They're comfortable and supportive without being tight and constraining.
 
I haven't worn tighty-whities since I was 12... and it has nothing to do with being married (I met my first wife when I was 16 and have only been single for about 2 years in the intervening 26 years).

That having been said, I don't know why it would matter one way or the other... as long as you feel comfortable in them.

Of course if you look funny in them, that could be an issue (married or not). But then again I've heard that laughter is a good thing at putting women at ease. :shifty:
 
Also haven't worn tighty whiteys since grade school.

Now it's coloured briefs all the way. Fertility was never a problem, that's for sure.

I found boxers way too uncomfortable, too bulky.
 
I've noticed that while stores still carry tighty whiteys, they're getting pretty scarce. They've been all but replaced by colored briefs, boxer-briefs or boxers.

I'm tempted to go buy a pair and see if it traumatizes my wife when I wear them.
 
I'm a boxers guy. I find boxer-briefs uncomfortable for some reason and briefs are a bit too "constricting" (as well as looking silly).
 
I've never worn "boxers" or "boxer briefs" but they don't like they would do the job to me. I want something that, yknow, holds things in place. :p
 
I have never known a man who wore tighty whiteys. If a man stripped down to reveal tighty whitey, I would probably have to leave the room to stop laughing. They are shockingly unattractive and look either juvenile or geriatric.
They are functional. Looks aren't that much of a consideration, especially when dealing with underwear.

Myself, I wear both boxers and briefs (not at the same time). Briefs when I'm going to be doing a good deal of physical activity, especially running or long periods of walking, and boxers when its time to relax and/or have sex.
