Men in Panties – A basic guide to panties

If you've decided to become a Man in Panties, congratulations. It's a big step, and one you should be proud of. Now that you've decided to wear the panties, it's really time to learn about them. Women's underwear is a strange new world. There are a multitude of fabrics, textures, and cuts to learn about, and you're going to want to learn about most, if not all of them.

The Thong. A thong can be very sexy indeed if you like the 'whale tale' effect. If worn lower, a thong is virtually undetectable, which can be a huge bonus for the Man in Panties who would rather not have VPL (that's visible panty line to the uninitiated) at a business meeting, or in the auto shop, or wherever you might happen to work. Of course, if you spend a lot of time bending over, you may find that the thin strip of material rubs unpleasantly between the cheeks, causing chafing and redness.

Bikini Cut. Bikini cut is a popular simple but sexy cut. Rising high on the hips and leaving a little of the buttocks exposed, the bikini is a good look if you want to try something a little more adventurous without going overboard.

Full brief. For those says when you just want a little more coverage, a full brief covers the entirety of the buttocks. The full brief may appeal more to the older man, or you could perhaps wear a full brief when you want to feel particularly serous or professional.

Now that we have the basic cuts covered, let's look at fabric.

Satin/Silk. Luxuriously soft and supple, the feeling of satin and/or silk against your skin may send you into the heavens with every step you take. These materials are very sensual, sexy, and

Cotton: Very simple, very basic, cotton breathes well and can be a good choice if you're just having a low key kind of day.

Polyblends: The poor man's silk and satin, polyblends can be good for men who want some of the texture of silk and satin, but don't want to pay the heinous price tag.

Lace. Ah lace, the most classic of all the materials. You can purchase panties made entirely of lace, or you can have a little lace trim on an otherwise unadorned pair of panties. Classy as you please, or trashy as you like, lace is versatile and ever so delicious.

Mesh. Mesh is often used in various panels to provide a see through effect. Mesh can be a playful, naughty way to express yourself.

Those are the basics. Now sally forth into your department stores and boutiques and treat yourself, you deserve it.
