Okay, how do women not completely obsess about their underwear?
I went to a Jockey outlet mall this weekend and bought a few new pairs of boxers, and I couldn't wait to try them on. And all day wearing them I'm walking around thinking: "hey! I got my new fashionable boxers on!"

And they're freaking boxer shorts!!!

Women have a whole industry dedicated to clothes that are rarely (and sadly) seen.

Alright, this is all kinda sexist I guess, but having just emerged from the restroom where I said to myself. "cool boxers!", I found myself asking the question.

Sorry...

Jeez... they're *your* undercrackers... do all your clothing choices have to be approved?

19. Yes, we have a whole approval process and committee
It starts with a request form filled out in triplicate and ends in the removal of the offensive items.

Hee hee. Not really

Of course, I wear them ocassionally, but overall I've found that I'm a fan of reciprocity in a marriage, particularly when it comes to undergarments. She's gotten me out of briefs, and I've gotten her out of cotton, granny underwear, and I think we're both the happier for it.

give and take...

5. I would if I could still afford the fancy stuff.
Now I buy boring stuff so... no reason to get excited.

17. Oh... so...
are you thinking I wear the women's version of boxer briefs? I think they're just briefs. I don't know I'm not an expert on panties.

Anyway... I'm still very confused. :crazy:

27. That it does
I recently went on a spending spree, and oh dear is that stuff expensive.

Worth it in my opinion, but the alternatives are great too!

29. I'm more of a boxer briefs type of guy.
I like the look of boxers, but I want the support of briefs.

30. white cotton.... nothing to get excited about
and frankly, I wouldn't wear lacy stuff even if I could afford it. Sounds itchy to me.
