Sanity Check - DH in Boxers

[Anonymous]

I have two teen boys. They never, ever walk around in their underwear! Nor would they want to!

That is hot. Boxers are not.

Is it hot no matter who it is? I'm guessing you imagine some young, attractive woman.

While IMO wearing just underwear is inappropriate, I'm a sickened a bit about the argument that "women's body parts are beautiful, so less coverage is fine in public, while men's are not beautiful and should therefore be covered at all times." Sometimes, it even feels like women are expected to show off their body parts for the sake of others. Its a bit twisted, no?

Exactly. This is the argument—they’re just shorts. They cover as much as most casual shorts with a shorter-side inseam.

HUH?? My husband's shorts don't have an open flap in the front.

+1, my DH’s shorts also aren’t paper thin.

God no!

Sweaty Lycra bike shorts in your face at a traffic light in Potomac? A-ok!

Listen, boxers have a slit so men can pee out them. Sometimes men’s junk slips out. Post as many leggings and bra pictures as you want. It’s not the same as someone wearing boxers at the hardware store sexually harassing people as their junk spills out.

Just gotta add, I have an image of my FIL’s balls permanently seared in my mind from just this trauma. Men, don’t do it!!

And sometimes women’s nips pop out while wearing bikinis everywhere in public. Stop harassing families and children wearing bikinis.

Who’s wearing bikinis to the grocery store?

No one. This misogynist troll just wants to fight.

It seems everyone is confused and thought OP was a woman judging /complaining, but is actually a man wondering if he's OK.

Um, do you not know what boxers are? They have an open fly. All kinds of things poke out of that thing.

How many of you who are arguing that boxers are fine out of the house are thinking boxer briefs instead of boxers.

Boxer briefs are more like yoga pants or leggings. They are elastic and closed and stay closed as you move. Boxers are intentionally loose fitting. The fly opens or gaps periodically and the legs are wide and loos, so when you sit down and move your legs, the contents are frequently displayed. They are very different.

It would be less revealing to wear boxer briefs and they might be mistaken for biker pants, but boxers are really different and a no go outside of the home or with anyone not in your immediate family around.
