    Ugh Briefs :eek:

    As a fella, I wouldn't venture outside the house without a pair of boxers, but not loose ones. I like the "hugging" tight type. Well, while I still have the figure for them :p

    Tbh I don't know how any woman could take a guy seriously in a G-String?! Or indeed briefs. And leave cartoon ones alone! I've a pair of Taz ones that have picked up more than their fair share of compliments :p

    My OH wears loose boxers. Briefs scare the hell outta me *shudder* And a g-string is wrong on oh so many levels... Never seen a guy wear them anywayz.

    Forget my :eek: in the post above. This is... dude... wrong wrong wrong. I'd suggest a bra there too.

    As my old economics teacher used to say, "if you get that far with a girl, the type of knickers wont matter"

    Nice fitting boxers for the win.

    Novelty boxers are for special occasions.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 844 ✭✭✭allabouteve


    Plain white cotton boxers please. On a well built guy the trunks style will do, but only if he's built.

    Boxers... But if he's working out at the gym, how in the world would he be comfy in boxers, so maybe a little latitude depending upon the occasion? (That is, unless it's bedroom gymnastics, then commando for sure!)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo


    black boxers are awesome.

    i'd put the :eek: beside the g-string long before i'd put it beside commando.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33 Glitteronsnow


    Boxers ftw. Just not white ones. I think novelty ones are deadly. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭The Queen


    Boxers. All the way! But mostly, because I like to wear them when I stay in my OHs gaf. They are so comfy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 781 ✭✭✭Rogueish


    Boxer briefs are the only way to go!!!

    I can't understand why anyone would be comfortable in loose boxers. Nothing stays in place and the easy access front invariably has no buttons and 'accessories' have a nasty habit of falling out!!

    G-strings are soooo wrong on so many levels.

    Commando - you have no idea how many guys forget to take a clean pair of boxers/jocks to training and go home commando. I have to say it would be preferable to going home in dirty smelly sweaty jocks.

    As for cartoons at least they are making an effort to wear jocks.

    Oh and they MUST be clean. Seeing a grown man with skidmarks :eek: do I need to say more!

    (I work as a rehabilitation therapist with athletes so it necessitates some form of undress - thank God for towel draping!!)

    you can also have buttons on loose boxers too, and with loose boxers you're giving it space and the freedom to move around and breathe. also loose boxers will keep the temp. down. ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 781 ✭✭✭Rogueish


    I coming from a work point of view. If things need movement and air fine but I really don't need a peep show when I'm working. If loose boxers have buttons fine but that doesn't stop bits falling down the leg of them!

    I've always thought women look good in boxers, provided they're the right size for them ...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,325 ✭✭✭Eviledna


    Aren't briefs bad for the kitandkaboodles? Reduces sperm count and all that malarkey?:eek:

    Jockeys

    What are jockeys? Other than small people who race about on horses... as I don't think you could wrap one of them about your privates...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Boxers only for me. No tighty-whiteys or ball stranglers and certainly no g-ers.

    I'd often go commando after training etc or if I'm chillin in a pair of boardies. You can get a nice draft up the leg. All helps when it's in the late 30s.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,930 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    monkeyfudge: Dunno.. I'd say you could.. but you wouldn't want to run with one around there.. *ahem* :eek:

    boxer-briefs ftw. little distracting trying to spar/throw kicks when things are loose.. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn

    Think they mean old-style y-fronts ...

    Boxer briefs are about as comfortable as a straight jacket tbh.

    Yea, probably because of your latent homosexual tendencies :rolleyes:

    I knew sj was into horse racing, but didn't know he was a jockey.. defo short enough! :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    You do know there are such things as female jockeys, right?

    And it's hardly fair to slag sj when he's not around.

    Hmmm ... though, on second thoughts ... >_>

    Ok, male boardsies, as long as you are here could you answer a question; commando - is this not a little dangerous with the close zip proximity?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,930 ✭✭✭✭challengemaster


    nah, trousers have a little piece of material blocking the zip from the inside, moves away to one side when needed(peeing) - so everything's kept well away from the zip :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    Or button fly jeans.

    Commando ftw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    Personally I can't stand anything except boxers.

    ANything else just feels to restrictive.

    Imagine the shock if the pronouns were reversed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,575 ✭✭✭✭FlutterinBantam


    Nice white Y-Fronts are my favourite,as they support the sack and cradle the tackle better than the others.The cotton is also nice and soft and and doesn't chafe the bag area and prevents wine glow.
    Only drawback is they can be fairly difficult to keep clean as I found out when I divested on a passionate occasion and she was like the landing threshold of Heathrow rwy 28L.Kinda dissipated the passion :o:o

    Thats my 2c worth


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 30,731 ✭✭✭✭princess-lala


    Ugh:eek: Jeepers no man in a G-string for me thanks:)

    Oh lord no briefs either:(

    Boxers for me:) not too loose or too tight just the perfect fit:D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,358 ✭✭✭seraphimvc


    :eek:so it's true when i asked my friends this question,same 'what the f*ck!' when i mentioned brief...now i feel really lucky i am normal!:)

    always considering boxer is abit old fashion IMO

    and think the g-string i bought while i was in US will never see the daylight again:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭2 stroke


    I'd like to add my tuppence worth even though I'm not a girl. Around the house/bedroom I prefer loose boxers, however these were obvously designed by a woman. Uncomfortable seam in the center? very uncomfortable while driving or taking a bus, also too much room for dangly bits to bang around during strenuous activity so boxer briefs with built in ballroom for daily use.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭mollybird


    well ladies i think there is nothing sexier than a man in silk boxers. unfortunely my man won't wear them:( i hate tightie whities. eugh!! nothing white please!!

    Totally agree. White is horrible! Black all the way.

    As long as they're not following the 'black doesn't show the dirt' school of thought. :(

    I think black suits the skin tone of most guys in Ireland better anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,367 ✭✭✭✭watna


    I agree with the tight boxers/boxer briefs things.

    My OH had a pair of giant grey silk boxers that had "I'm the boss" written all over them. His stepmother bought for them for him. They were hideous and when we moved they "went missing"!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 84 ✭✭funkycat83


    funny that only just today a guy i know informed me that calvin klein boxers are very comfortable! just thought id share :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Popinjay


    I'm another one of these blokes rushing in to reply. Commando all the way. It's comfortable for both temperature and spaciousness.

    My gf was a bit surprised when she first noticed the lack of undergarment but now she doesn't like it on the rare occasions I wear underwear. Even if it the sexy stuff. Likes the idea of having one less layer of protection for me during strip poker and the like.

    Lots of my clothes went missing over the years....hmmm.

    Hey! historical fact for you guys - there were no such thing as boxers back in the day.

    In fact they were 'started' by Nick Kamen in the Levi's ad in the laundry where he took off his jeans. Y-fronts were considered too revealing for daytime tv so the ad producers made him wear white shorts - hence boxers. Fact. You bebo generationers would like totally so not remember that ad.

    Y-front jockey ftw.

    Why?
    • G-string just wrong
    • Boxers too loose and no support
    They win by default.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 609 ✭✭✭GA361


    Briefs are for men over the age of 46....



    FACT!
