So today while I was changing after a swim today I got a bit of attitude from 2 others. I wore speedos as did they since swimming for fitness or they may be competitive who knows. After showering I slipped on my briefs and was standing in the mirror, shaving when one guy scoffed and told me to cover up. My briefs probably were larger than my swimsuit.
I've always kinda wondered anyway why the majority of straight men, in North America at least, are so critical of certain styles of underwear. In recent years tighter underwear has become more popular amongst most men. Which is great. But why are skin tight white compression shorts that go down to the knee yet leave nothing to the imagination in the junk department acceptable but a pair of briefs are considered geeky or lame.
I have heard of many men straight and gay who are more afraid of being seen in "embarrassing" underwear than naked. Why does choosing to wear briefs or even a jockstrap reduce the amount of masculinity or diminish confidence if others knew?
If you found out your best bro secretly wore male thong underwear would that change the relationship? How does someone else's clothing choice actually affect you?
Why does concealing more of your body equate to manliness?
Any thoughts to help me understand.
