        @rabidbadger I was wondering about that -- cause straight men never seemed to care that much. Any idea whether it has now cross over tho?

        @rabidbadger I'm asking this, btw, bc I keep getting fancy mens underwear ads on my site, so Google thinks I should buy the spouse some.

        @emptywheel But seriously, if it works for you and he's ok with it, go for it. And when is a guy not ok with his lady wanting sexy? :)

        @emptywheel Is"fashionable" female underwear sexist to extent that females are sold the need to wrap their "value" up like a pretty package?

        @Merriiman Not asserting it's sexist. Tho I do find most "practical" undies more comfortable, breathable.

        @emptywheel Doesn't bear directly on topic but am uncomfortable w/decorative underwear marketed esp to young girls. What's the message?

        @rabidbadger @emptywheel yeah but I guess I don't think sexy is new to men, just higher standards & more marketing.

        When I wear underwear, it is usually a low-rise fishnet brief - Stripes. RT @emptywheel: How did fancy men's underwear become a thing?
