Men Caught In Lingerie

Updated on October 12, 2009

Getting caught out in lingerie can be a problem for men who like to wear it out of the house, or even those who are in relationships where their lingerie wearing is an issue. It's one thing to flaunt your lingerie when you're in a sharing mood, its completely different to be caught out at an inopportune moment. Then again, sometimes its fun to raise eyebrows and cause whispers. As with everything else in life, sharing your lingerie with the world is about timing.

Here are some tips to avoid getting caught in lingerie when you don't want to be, and things to think about if you do want to be caught.

Hand Wash

I keep seeing the same story come up from guys who have been caught out by family members, or even their wives because they put their lingerie through the wash and somebody who shouldn't have found it. Hand washing your lingerie is better for your lingerie, and it also means that you won't be leaving it sitting around in a hamper to be espied by prying eyes.

Take It Off

Some men are just unashamed thrill seekers, wearing lingerie at times when discovery would be disastrous. If you're going to a family funeral, important interview or other such event, leave the lingerie at home. It might be your right to wear it whenever you want, but if old Aunt Agnes will have a heart attack because you bend forward and your pink panties become visible in the gap between your pants and back, then leave them at home.

Be Aware

Sometimes a shirt which looks fine under indoor lighting can turn translucent in sunlight or under the flash of a camera. There's nothing like taking a bunch of pictures with your buddies only to end up with everyone having multiple copies of you in a bra. If that happens, its safe to say that your secret is out.

Of course, some men want to be caught wearing lingerie. They willfully unbutton their shirts a little, letting lace show, or hike their panties up so that they rise above the waistband of their pants. If you're a bit of an exhibitionist, be aware of the possible fall out, and take some time beforehand thinking about the appropriateness of your actions. Part of being a gentleman is about making those around you feel comfortable. A little lace isn't a crime, but there are some times and places where it can cause a problem. Be sensitive to the needs and feelings of others, and to the general environment in which you will be interacting. If you're taking a partner who already isn't sure about the whole lingerie thing out to dinner, don't use the event as your chance to flaunt your lingerie to the world. Men sometimes get so focused on their lingerie that they sacrifice other people's feelings on the altar of it, and that is never a pretty sight.
