Mens underwearView Messages“I recently decided to switch my everyday underwear from cotton to synthetic. I priced everything at a lot of sources, including REI, and found a price range from $18 to 25. Not that I don't have a lot of respect and affection for what they will contain, I'd still like a cheaper price or other options. The option of wearing women's underwear is untenable because, I believe, Chappy is already notorious for that and I don't want to infringe on his territory (so to speak). Freeballing would be a possibility were it not for the inevitable safety hazard. It seems that every time I tripped and fell on the AT it was for that reason. So, does anyone have a source for new (not used) synthetic briefs? In advance, I and the boys, thank you.” 9:04:24 AM 8/22/06 “pay the money, having lived in polypropylene long johns for a month,i can assure you it can get unpleasant down there.” 9:08:36 AM 8/22/06 “Tripped and fell? Why, 'cause you didn't have a free hand? Doggone, that Chappy is a real swingin' cat!” 9:09:13 AM 8/22/06 “I did what you do with many of your posts, "stepped on it".” 9:10:10 AM 8/22/06 “So how come you want to change from cotton to synthetic? Maybe you haven't heard, cotton is the fabric of our lives!” 9:19:49 AM 8/22/06 “I like the feel of cotton on my.............” 9:32:29 AM 8/22/06 “The difference in comfort, perspiration related rashes, etc. I researched this to the best of my meager ability;sure hope I get some support here.” 9:34:03 AM 8/22/06 “"Oh when them cotton balls get rotten..."” 9:34:51 AM 8/22/06 “Birch likes andiamo shorts. They're expensive but hold up well. I'd think you all would want some ventalation down there though and some wiggle room. BTW....you have mail (not about your underwear but still interesting)” 9:41:06 AM 8/22/06 “LOL!! Well those sound like pretty good reasons to me. I could give you some advice if you wanted girls' underwear, but I don't have too much experience wearing guys'...” 9:43:10 AM 8/22/06 “please continue lyra. i don't know any guy (outside of marko) that'd rather hear advice about mens' undies. this thread needs a new direction and you're just chick we need to drive it there last edited: 8/22/06 9:50:14 AM” 9:48:08 AM 8/22/06 “Its all about the thread count.” 9:49:43 AM 8/22/06 “Sounds good to me! Why doesn't someone trade me bodies for a day, and I'll test out guys' underwear with my new "gear." That sounds reasonable.” 9:51:37 AM 8/22/06 “The Itchy And Scratchy Show??” 9:51:39 AM 8/22/06 “lyra wants guys to send her their underwear.” 9:54:03 AM 8/22/06 “nice try, but if you had "gear" for a day you know you wouldn't waste the day covering it with underwear. i'd like to hear more about your thoughts on improved ventilation for womens undies.” 9:54:49 AM 8/22/06 “No, just you, must hike! Well obviously, crotchless underwear would be the most ventilating. Most girls I know just wear that. And then we hang out in our underwear and have pillow fights.” 10:02:38 AM 8/22/06 “If this were Stovey's thread, right about now he'd raise a little hell and remind everyone he hadn't gotten a serious response. As for me, with the natural and inevitable turn of the thread, I really don't give a damn if I ever get an answer.” 10:05:27 AM 8/22/06 “These look nice, and cheap! And they come in purple. [url]http://www.freshpair.com/Players-Tricot-Nylon-Men's-Brief-NBR1.html[/url]” 10:10:05 AM 8/22/06 “nah NF, stovie would never mind hearing lyra's thoughts on crotchless underwear. personally, i'm not a fan. nothing sexy about them for me. i think the name itself hurts. the word crotch(less) sounds about as sexy to me as gonorrhea.” 10:12:56 AM 8/22/06 “How about super secret trap door undies? Easy access? I better stop....the next one was gonna be a do-sey.” 10:21:33 AM 8/22/06 “super secret trap door undies? *eyebrow raised*” 10:23:35 AM 8/22/06 “Haha, trap door! That sounds sort of scary. :-D These are the well-ventilating underwear I wear, too bad they don't have any for boys. http://www.barelythere.com/style.asp?cid=2&id=45” 10:25:29 AM 8/22/06 “Lyra - the Players on your earlier post should do the job. At $8.76 the price is right as well. I'll order purple and post pictures.” 10:37:24 AM 8/22/06 “did some constructive info get passed around on this thread somehow? i'm losing my touch.” 10:41:33 AM 8/22/06 “Oh don't Nimble, I just had salmon chowder. >8^O” 10:41:51 AM 8/22/06 “lyra's thoughts on crotchless underwear.- lyra super secret trap door undies? Easy access? -Sass All of a sudden this thread took an interesting turn.... LOL” 10:44:57 AM 8/22/06 “Gawd put it in the middle so even a fool could find it.” 10:47:47 AM 8/22/06 “Awesome, I knew the purple would be a good incentive!!” 10:54:26 AM 8/22/06 “Purple is sooo sexy. =)” 11:17:45 AM 8/22/06 “Try Target! I find the best buys there.” 12:04:48 PM 8/22/06 “A bullseye on my butt?” 1:51:32 PM 8/22/06 “http://www.gaynors.co.uk/shop/131/132/136/index.htm I love these but have never seen them in the States. I bought a few pair about 3 years ago.” 2:02:34 PM 8/22/06 “Thank you all for your assistance. The gear has been ordered. This thread is officially terminated.” 2:25:06 PM 8/22/06 2:27:46 PM 8/22/06 “I found some Dickie shorts that are awesome. They have a spandex panel for the crotch area and are nice and cool. As I have pointed out before though and been criticized for is the lack of a pee hole (in the shorts, not me) but I like to stand at the urinals with my pants around my ankles anyhow so it matters not one wit to me. Now, the biggest drawback to the synthetics is the stink factor. They hold odors, no they hold ALL odors more persistently than cottons. I have gone from the metrosexual boxer briefs to the manly all out boxers.” 2:44:10 PM 8/22/06 “Boxers to me are the same as going commando. My boys need some level of support in hot weather.” 2:47:53 PM 8/22/06 “Duct tape them to your midsection. This would also give you somewhat of a pouch you could carry stuff in. Maybe your lunch?” 3:02:25 PM 8/22/06 “That was just wrong. Ban Nigal!” 3:05:15 PM 8/22/06 “Can you throw 'em over yer shoulder like a Continental Soldier?” 3:08:44 PM 8/22/06 “Nigal, Nigal, Nigal...... I do not shave my boys. Taking that duct tape off might be like that guy in The 40 Year Old Virgin getting hot waxed.” 3:12:31 PM 8/22/06 “I suggest a pair of heavy duty suspenders then. Just clamp on and pullllllllll! you could even use the measuring tape looking ones the old guy s at Home Depot wear so you could mark your progress. Problem solved. Next!” 3:17:12 PM 8/22/06 “I think I'll stick with my usual underwear, Nigal.” 3:19:12 PM 8/22/06 Dammit “I said the thread is finished. Go home.” 3:48:27 PM 8/22/06 “Net Nazi!!! ;-)” 3:57:34 PM 8/22/06 “Exofficio boxer/brief are antimicrobial and synthetic. Wonderfull. Dry quickly. $25 per pair, but worth it. You can find them on the exofficio website.” 4:00:15 PM 8/22/06 “I have to wear the Boxer Briefs by Hanes...elastic actually makes me break out ....heck after 19 years of firefighting I have to use an unscented soap, unscented clear antiperspirant....and NO cologne. My problem with Briefs....is while the twins have a hammock, they keep dropping out of the leg elastic at particularly inopportune moments. Nothing like a twinged berry in the midst of a hard fire fight to get your voice up an octave or two.” 4:45:52 PM 8/22/06 “Will your voice break crystal?” 5:14:59 PM 8/22/06 Women' “Lacy things - the wife is missin', Didn't ask - her permission, I'm wearin' her clothes, Her silk pantyhose, Walkin' round in women's underwear. In the store - there's a teddy, Little straps - like spaghetti, It holds me so tight, Like handcuffs at night, Walkin' round in women's underwear. In the office there's a guy named Melvin, He pretends that I am Murphy Brown. He'll say, "Are you ready?" We'll say,"Whoa, Man!" "Let's wait until our wives are out of town!" Later on, if you wanna, We can dress - like Madonna, Put on some eyeshade, And join the parade, Walkin' round in women's underwear! Late at night, we'll perspire, As we play, by the fire, 'Cause old Santa Claus, He likes pointy bras, Walkin' round in women's underwear! Lacy things - she's still Missin', Didn't ask - her permission, Still wearin' her clothes, Her silk pantyhose, Walkin' round in women's underwear, Walkin' round in women's underwear, Walkin' - round - in women's -under - wear!” 5:27:06 PM 8/22/06 “i found some synth boxer briefs at wal mart for 7 bucks..and it has a pouch for your boys. They are comfortable, and for the shorn among us...very sleek feeling.” 9:27:27 PM 8/22/06
