Confession. I just started wearing women's panties.

[bif]

I'm a straight male. But these are so much more comfortable than men's underwear. Why didn't I make the conversion a long time ago? Anyone else with me here?

[Freddie]

1. Not thongs, right?

My daughter wears them. They can't possibly be comfortable.

[bif]

2. Nope. Regular full cut ones.

[TexasBushwhacker]

25. Yuck - butt floss n/t

[patricia92243]

3. I wear men's boxers to sleep in. Much more comfortable than panties. :)

[Lochloosa]

4. And I thought the dryer was eating them.

[left-of-center2012]

5. Nope

I like the extra room of boxers.

[AnnieBW]

6. Depends...

On the style. I tend to like the "boy shorts" type of underwear because it prevents chub rub. Either way, wear what you want, dude.

[bif]

38. Good for you!

[3catwoman3]

7. What an interesting thread. Can't quite tell if the...

...OP is serious or yanking our chains.

Commando is the only way to go under jeans, for me - can't ever find panties that stay in place and it is a real pain in the ass, literally, when they ride up.

When commando isn't appropriate, the longer bike short style works best. They stay down where they are supposed to be.

As for thongs - no way in hell. The only thongs you will find me wearing are the ones that go between your toes.

[bif]

18. Definitely not yanking your chains.

I don't understand why they don't make men's underwear as comfortable as women's.

[Laffy Kat]

8. Since we're on the subject:

I will use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to ask something I've always wondered: How many guys actually use the trap door/short-cut on their underpants when they have to pee? Do guys actually use them or just pull their pants down? I bet a lot of women want to know the answer--or not.

[FSogol]

9. Huh? Why wouldn't we use that opening?

It is very convenient. No one would drop their drawers in public. Now there is a little button there on some boxers. That never gets used.

[mythology]

20. You say that, but just this morning I saw an awful lot of a guy's butt at a urinal

His pants weren't down at his knees, but at least 3/4s of his ass was showing.

Personally I've never used the opening, I just unzip, pull the top of the boxers down and go from there.

[Locrian]

10. too complicated

Just pull the top down or leg hole!
Too much fumbling around with the overlapping flap bs

[LuckyCharms]

11. How the hell can I get...

3/4 inches down a freaking leg hole?

[LuckyCharms]

13. I get completely naked when at a public urinal.

[LuckyCharms]

14. Most men take a pair of scissors

and cut a huge hole in the front of their underwear. So the flap is cut out.

[LuckyCharms]

15. Men wear the trap door in the back...

and poop through it.

[LuckyCharms]

16. That flap is strictly for oxygen.

[Squinch]

77. How did I miss this thread? I'm dying over here.

[LuckyCharms]

17. What trap door?

[3catwoman3]

22. You are definitely not alone in wondering that.

Threading a penis thru that fabric maze seems like it would be a lot of effort.

[brush]

28. Oh boxers maybe, on jockeys, never, too much trouble. They're...

engineered all wrong.

[CTyankee]

44. My husband only wears jockeys. I guess he's just used to them.

My guess is his likes their "containment." If you know what I mean...

[NightWatcher]

46. Sometimes Huey Lewis and The News need a little support

I wear the same.

[brush]

48. I got you. Some like the containment, some like the freedom of boxers.

With Jockeys, pardon the expression, most men just go over the top.

[trackfan]

36. I think I tried it once or twice as an experiment.

Otherwise, nope.

[denbot]

37. Hell no!

All to often when I have to go, I have to go! At that point there is no time for pulling through a puzzle..

[Gidney N Cloyd]

40. I skip the front flap and pull the right leg hole over.

I wear Jockey Pouch style briefs and sometimes when you're done and retracting through the pouch opening you can cause a drip-- sometimes a significant one.

I can diagram that if anyone wants...

[Laffy Kat]

42. That's ok, Gidney. I think we all get the picture.

[jberryhill]

54. There's actually a technique for dealing with that

[jberryhill]

53. Nobody uses that

I usually just put my foot up on the urinal and pull up the cuff on my pant leg a bit.

[Laffy Kat]

57. Where is the eye roll smilie?

[jberryhill]

58. A bonus for you

[Laffy Kat]

59. ....

[Snackshack]

81. Lol

Ok- I have been on DU since 06 and this is by far the oddest thread I have ever seen here.

Bravo to the OP, very weird thread but it brought about a much needed laugh. Thank you and Keep on Truckin with your choice of wardrobe!


Personally I have never used that opening. I wish that they would not put it on briefs. It is a complete waste of mfg time and material.

Can’t stand boxers...maybe if my pants/shorts were baggier (not sure if that is a word but I’m gonna use it) so that the extra material on boxers would not bunch up around my leg I would.

🙂

[LuckyCharms]

12. I like to pee sitting down...

and I always forget to drop my underwear.

[Phentex]

19. You can make them even more compfortable...

by wearing them inside out. No seam to run across the butt.

For some reason, all seams started bothering me in more recent years. Even the so called seamless underwear have at least one seam along the rear. It finally hit me one day just to turn them inside out and now all the smooth stuff is next to my skin.

[fleur-de-lisa]

23. I do that too.

And my undies always have a tag in the back inside. So wearing them inside-out keeps me from feeling both the tag and the seams.

[bif]

24. I'll have to try that.

Thanks for the tip!

[bif]

62. You're right.

Thanks!

[Snackshack]

82. Yep

I do this as well. I hate the seam and it has pretty much been the same size (width wise) all my life. One would think that material and sowing advancements would made it possible to make it half its width.

[3catwoman3]

21. Did you know, in England, that design of men's...

...underpants is sometimes called "Y fronts"?

[Funtatlaguy]

26. Why no pix of your dainty banana 🍌 hammock?

Too shy?

[bif]

27. Huh?

[Funtatlaguy]

29. Your OP said you have made the switch

To panties.
Shouldn’t we see a pic of you in them.
You don’t have to include a head shot. For privacy protection.
Just waist down.

[bif]

30. Ain't gonna happen

Even my wife doesn't know.

[Funtatlaguy]

33. Ok dude.

I’m just glad that you now have a happy home for the frank and beans.
Hang loose. Or tight. Or whatever turns your crank.
You just can’t talk about this subject without sounding dirty.

[NightWatcher]

47. You better tell your wife. You don't want her to think it's some other lady's panties

She'll never buy the "comfort" thing.

[stonecutter357]

31. TOMBOY UNDERWEAR !

https://tomboyx.com/collections/undies

[Doodley]

32. Whatever is the most comfy, does not matter if they are marketing for men or women.

No need to confess. I wear whatever works best. Can't wear boxers, and anything loose pulls in the wrong places and can cause pain. So I agree with the OP.

[bif]

34. Thanks.

The material/cotton they use in women's underwear is so much more comfortable it's amazing.

[Ilsa]

55. Everyone used to make a fuss about only wearing cotton underwear. But

Hikers wear synthetic because it dries faster and is less irritating to the skin. Cotton is hot on the crotch.

[GReedDiamond]

35. Nonsense! Having uncomfortable underwear is what makes...

...a man a MAN.

Get used to it.













(insert sarcasm emoji HERE)

[mahatmakanejeeves]

39. What's the size correlation? I'm asking for a friend. NT

[bif]

41. I have a 34" waist

A women's large fits perfectly.

[bif]

71. Which is also a size 7

[bif]

43. Self-serving kick to get more reactions/opinions

[Major Nikon]

45. Just make sure they are clean in case you're in a car wreck

[Codeine]

49. I sit down to pee.

Can’t stand splashing smelly piss into a bowl from two feet up.

When at a urinal I just pull down the front of my boxer briefs and flip Nature’s Bounty over the top. But in the main I avoid urinals (and public restrooms in general) like the plague. I’d rather hold it all day.

[mr_lebowski]

61. Me too ... not at the urinal of course that'd be pretty gross ...

Only time I pee standing up is when I'm outside or don't trust the seat for whatever reason ... at HOME? I always sit. Why not?

[Mosby]

50. I wear boxer briefs by kirkland (costco)

They are sinfully soft, made out of Pima cotton.

[Snackshack]

83. Costco.

Pima Cotton, right on.

I will keep an eye out for that. Thanks

[applegrove]

51. I use a man's razor. Cheaper than a female's. Lasts longer.

[Ilsa]

64. Me too. Done it that way for 40+ years. nt

[applegrove]

65. Yes. I had a roomate in college who thought it was strange. I just like

the best deal in things like that that are priced at a premium for females. I'll splurge on other things.

[bif]

74. They're like 8 for $12.99 at Costco!

[applegrove]

75. I use the replacement multi blades. They last much longer. Still cheaper

than the fancy female razor system last time I looked 25 years ago.

[Kaleva]

52. If you get killed in a accident or die of a heart attack, that will be the topic at your wake.

[Demovictory9]

73. lol.

[MustLoveBeagles]

56. Wear whats comfortable for you

I don't think most of us will judge you for this. However it might not be a good idea to keep it from your wife. She might find a pair and think you're cheating on her.

[mr_lebowski]

60. What's underwear?

I wear it when I go to the doctors office or working in the yard in shorts ... and that's pretty much it.

Not my thing ...

[bif]

63. One last kick

To see if there are any other guys who do the same.

[Solly Mack]

66. I love boxers. Have for years.

I steal my husband's boxers all the time. I buy my own - and I still steal his.

[mentalsolstice]

67. As long as it's comfortable my boat floats, however, I ask....

If you don’t mind, what kind of panties do you like to wear? My friends and I have grumbled for years about finding comfortable underwear. And I would think what is uncomfortable for us, would be especially uncomfortable for your boys. In my middle age I have finally settled on boy shorts.

Oh, and I agree with others, you really need to tell your wife. I can imagine all kinds of disastrous scenarios if you don’t.

[bif]

68. The brand is Felina

I bought an 8-pack at Costco.

[mac56]

69. As the old joke goes. Two guys in the locker room.

"How long have you been wearing women's panties?"

"Since my wife found a pair in the glove compartment."

[bif]

70. Good one! Love it!

[Demovictory9]

72. LOL

[Bok_Tukalo]

76. Might as well go commando

Bleh. I need the gold bar and jewels securely in place.

[dameatball]

78. The clotheslines in your neighborhood must be nicer than in mine.

[Mike Nelson]

79. Whatever is comfortsable...

… I like the men's. I wear boxers for baggy and briefs for tighter pants. I never use the flap hole for briefs, but sometimes boxers are useable... it's really not easy. I just lower them.

[yonder]

80. Great thread

Uh..oh,uh...

Boxer briefs for me, over the top to pee.

[bif]

84. One last kick

[Crabby Appleton]

85. No womens underwater for me

They remind me of a cheap hotel -






No ballroom.
