    This is only tangentially related. Why aren’t there sexy/slutty underwear options for men though? There should be something other than jock straps/thongs to give men slutty underwear.

      Fr 😭 the best I’ve found is silk boxer briefs. So much of the “sexy” stuff is crude joke shit, like oh look the dick is an elephant trunk! Also even more tangential, why is no one able to take a good dick pic? How is a blurry picture of a dong next to a can of Monster supposed to entice me?

        Yeah I’ve wondered this myself too. It kinda sucks to feel like there’s nothing I can do short of dedicating myself to years in the gym to make myself look ‘sexy’. My best move, apparently, is to wear the red boxers my partner finds the sexiest while she has all kinds of fancy frilly thongs.

        And I don’t know if you are a person with a penis yourself but it is just impossible to make that thing look good on camera. Again, my best move is to just wear the boxers and accentuate the bulge.

      I once had a thing with a man who wore tight black lace boxers, I think they were Dolce and Gabbana or something? Idk, it was incredibly sexy though.

      I find pouch briefs (modal usually) to be good if you’ve got the package and booty to fill them out. Calvin Klien used to make a pouch bikini brief that was basically perfect, but that was many years ago and their modern ones are much smaller in the front.

    It’s kind of hard to find quality heart boxers. It’s all cheap alphabet companies, you can’t get them from Hanes or the like.

      Right?!? The only way to get heart boxers is if they’re “novelty”. They don’t feel good, they don’t hold up, and honestly they don’t even look good.

      I’d wear the hell out of some quality ones.

    Are boxers girly? I know girls have their own variant of boxers, but I mean… I mean the silky ones I used to have had rubber duckies on them!

    Man, I feel monstrous admitting to still finding this sort of loony tunes slapstick to be funny depending on context.

    Like, someone having their clothes aggressively yanked off, yes, that’s sexual assault. Boxers exposed from accidentally blowing themselves up with slapstick-style dynamite, sure, that’s funny.

    There’s definitely a vein where exposing underwear as a joke becomes predatory or abusive, I just can’t envision it as a genuine major issue in most cases.

    It happened to me. In high school. It was part of a play we were doing for our drama class. It was stupid then. It’s stupid now. But it happened to me. And it can happen to you.

      Eminently solveable with a well-fitted belt.

      It also helps to not wear pants like you’re a convict looking to trade anal sex for protection.

    My moderately ND son had this happen to him on the bus by bullies when he was in middle school. The bully got arrested.

    Sexual assault isn’t funny.

      Bullies were adults?

          For pulling the pants as a sexual harassment? We, probably don’t know the full picture. Because based on info from the comment only, arrest of a minor (not just a detention) seems to be too harsh of a punishment

            Maybe I’m unclear on what you don’t understand about the details that have been provided. What is your perception of the difference between being arrested and detained? Sexual harassment (and sexual assault as described above) is a crime in civilized places. Detention and arrest are part of a process to document and investigate alleged crimes. Those steps in the process are not the punishment though, that would be sorted out during sentencing if the prosecution is successful in court.

              I thought arrest is when police officials put you in a cell / restrict your movement and initiate a case. Wich seems too harsh for a minor.

              And by detention I mean school detention from classes.

      I’d be thoroughly impressed if a director could somehow pull this joke with a female character, make it funny, and WITHOUT any chance of people sexualizing the scene. Prove to people women can also achieve self-deprecating humor of that kind. Granted, I don’t know how they’d do that.

    1000s years ago when I was still in school, the girl I was dating got me stocked up on women’s underwear because of her fetish or something. I still have to be careful not to wear them to work just in case my pants rip or something. It’s not like fancy lingerie or anything, but it definitely doesn’t look like men’s clothing.

    Where’s that dude that offered you to beat him up in front of your GF for 50 bucks when you need him?
