POUT!

Pout with these sexy embroidered thongs. Lightweight, sheer mesh constructed of cotton and spandex, these hot little numbers are both tease and reveal.


Sometimes, a man just likes the feel of panties. Or bras, or corsets, or camisoles, or any one of the delightful array of lingerie that is open without reserve to womenfolk, but which, in spite of feminism being in full swing in this, the new millennium, is still largely closed to men not in a commercial sense, but in a social sense.

Why is it that we no longer blink to see a woman in jeans, and a lady wearing men's boxers is considered cute and sexy, but a man in panties is often considered strange, or tasteless. I could fill this page full of women in bikinis and men's briefs alternately and nobody would have a problem, but fill it full of hard, toned male bodies strutting their stuff in lace and satin, and this page will be relegated to the seedy backwaters of the Internet, were millions lurk, frantically clearing their browser histories and contemplating downloading some of that drive cleaner software to boot.

Perhaps it is because we are not as evolved as we like to seem. Perhaps it is because notions of masculinity are still very much tied into heterosexual behavior, and any deviation that seems to hint at the feminine is strongly frowned upon, and may even be severely punished by renegades who take some form of warped natural justice into their own hands.

LACE ON LACE BRAZILIAN

Just the title sounds naughty doesn't it? These flirty lace trimed lace panties come in a range of colors and are the perfect mix of old school lace style with a modern cut.

LACE UP HIP HUGGER

Fishnet panties? You betcha! Coming in a more traditional brief cut, these panties might seem plain and innocent for a split second until you catch that oh so naughty see through lace effect.

Interestingly enough, it is often straight men that enjoy cross dressing, and the wearing of women's lingerie. However in spite of the fact that a man wearing a lacy thong is statistically more likely to want to settle down with a woman than not, the perception remains that he is less masculine than his muscle bound counterpart who can't stop giving the eye to the guy behind the counter at Starbucks.

Have we, in some ways, slid further back than we came forward when it comes to gender equality? Thousands, if not millions of women every year have their breasts augmented to sometimes ridiculous extremes, and the fat literally ripped out of their bodies in order to conform to the feminine ideal. Men seem equally trapped in their roles. When was the last time you saw formal menswear that was something besides a tuxedo or suit? How boring it must be to be a fashion conscious man. You can have a blue shirt, or a white one, or perhaps if you're really going to be outrageous you can try a 'salmon' (pink) color. Perhaps wearing panties isn't something you're interested in as a man. Perhaps as a woman you would find a man in panties to look silly. Perhaps not. But should the choice not be there? The freedom to wear whatever one feels the best in? Why is this simple idea so reviled by so many? Will society collapse because a man dons a silk baby doll? Will he suddenly become a less able father? A less competent worker? A weaker partner? Of course not, yet somewhere inside the minds of many, these are exactly the consequences that are feared. Rather silly when you think about it.

All the lingerie featured in this article is available from Victoria's Secret. Well known for their sexy and cost effective designs, Victoria's Secret is a great place to start for the man who is getting into Lingerie. Of course, this is just one of a great many purveyors of lingerie suited for boys and girls, so explore!

It's not fair that women get all of the fun choices when it comes to lingerie! Colors, styles, fabrics and they wonder why we wear theres!

My boyfriend uses victoria secret Jeans, and he looks great on them, it doesn't even appear feminine at all, society will learn to accept it just like scotland accepted kilts amongst men. Clothes should be available to everyone regardless of what they are, my boyfriend also wears bra and panties and pantyhose but the bra and pantyhose he only wears at home and I think it's extremely sexy.

I wish that we could all just wear whatever we want without being judged or brande with names by the male neanderthals who I believe probably wear their wives panties in secret.

I have been wearing panties, as well as other lingerie, for about 20 years. It feels wonderful to wear lingerie. Women have exclusively had this luxury long enough. It's time to share. It's just a matter of time before the majority of society accepts the fact that men should be able to wear what they want as long as men keep doing so.

I've worn panties for several years, my wife likes the look and they feel great. Body by Victoria fit great for everyday wear. Wear what you feel good in - people are to hung up on sterotypes and labels.

i have been wearing women's clothes at home for years. why should the women have all the fun? there clothes are not plain like men's. and the feel of silk,satin against your skin is great. and with everything that is going on in the world a man in panties is harmless. so guys stock up on victorias secret there panties nightys bras are the best you can buy in my opion.

When I was five, my babysitter had all girls. One day, I had an accident and had no change of clothes. She put me in her youngest's panties as well as other clothes and I've loved them ever since. I have my own collection after years of stealing out of laundry and dresser drawers. For most times, I order online, with the fear of shopping in public. I wish it was acceptable.

A man could litterally be less of a man if he wears his panties too tight. ;-)

How many men out there have a wife/ girlfriend that LOVES to wear his shirts or sweaters, long johns in winter or as sleep pants? how many of you girls do this? Men have daughtes that LOVE to wear daddy's shirt, this is accepted in society and if it is a daughter wearing daddy's shirt even thought of as "cute", yet if a man wears panties or sleeps in a baby doll , cami set or nightdress and panties he is "gay" or not a real man, why so? why judge someone for what they wear and not for who they are as a person, I LOVE MY PANTIES!!!!

I love wearing panties. I especially like mesh ones, men do perspire in that region and the mesh keeps me cool and dry. Not to mention how great they feel. I cant think of one piece of mens clothing that women dont wear and I think we should have that freedom too.

I've been wearing lingerie for years. My wife likes to see my "cute butt" as she calls it, in my thongs, and especially boy short styles. We both usually wear only underwear around our home when we are alone (most of the time), so we both wear what is comfortable. My old cotton 'tightie-whities' did nothing for my wife; now she loves how sexy I look! Why should she be the only one who is comfortable and sexy at home?

I sometimes wear low-rider jeans out shopping, and nobody seems to notice or care - except once I bent over and some old lady saw my thong. She got her husband and they 'secretly' gawked at me while I shopped. Who knows what they thought about me, wearing women's clothing. But, I don't care because women's clothes are so much more comfortable than men's bulky, rough clothes.

This isn't the only gender issue that's a double standard. But to start, The act of a man wearing women's clothes was considered a mental disorder by professionals only until recently was it removed from the list of mental disorders.

I have enjoyed wearing women's fashions for many years, as well as a wig and makeup. Just in the privacy of my own home, but the fear of being disgraced is a bummer. I would be too afraid to go out. If you ever got pulled over the wrong person with a chip on the shoulder can charge you with anything.

I'm extremely shocked with the over all response by women to crossdressers. They become repulsed. On one hand they want men to be more compassionate and in touch with women and their issues, yet don't dare step into their shoes literally. Sure 50 years ago the few women that dared to move out of a dress were standouts. Probably looked odd and unattractive by the social design.

I see it all the time on line, women saying I want my man to be manly. Yet if a guy said I want my woman to be feminine and wear dresses. He would be deemed as controlling, abusive and oppressive to women. Of course, a woman will wear a dress if it is by her choice alone. Women have the advantage of both ends of the stick on so many levels it isn't even funny, yet still claim to be the disadvantaged ones.

I'm glad I came across this page. I've worn panties since I was maybe 14 or 15. They're really comfy and fun to wear. I don't get why men who wear panties are put down. I wear panties and I'm straight. Wish I could find a girl who would be accepting of this.

Well, 3rd time wife found my panties. She counted them. 64 pairs. My 11 yr old daughter found a few pairs last year. My wife is furious to say the least. I want to tell her they're the sexiest thing that's touched my privates in 8 years. Looks like divorce time. I'll chuck this stash of panties and start this cycle all over again. Or ...get out of a sexless marriage and find a woman who enjoys panties as much as I do. Married(for now), str8 man who wears panties because they're sexy and feel great. I feel good wearing them. No bras, nothing else, just womens panties.

I have been wearing panties for 10 years now, I can even go to the store and buy them, no shame as I just feel as its natural for me. I was born a transgender and proud of it. I love thongs the best and going shopping takes me hours in the pantie department..I guess if the underwear for men came in all the colors and styles I just might wear some of those, but mens underwear only come in black and white, and always in cotton, def not fun

@Zechs, that's a good, non-threatening way to find out how she feels about a man wearing lingerie. If your potential girlfriend not only tolerates, not likes but LOVES to see you wearing lingerie, that's a great sign for your relationship.

i found shopping in public is easy when you tell the clerk what your interested in, at first they look at you like, dude, what are you doing in here perv, but when you make verbal confrontation, 9 times out of ten, they are more than willing to help, and sometimes have fun with it, i go to the same places where people know me, and are used to seeing me, they ask, what will it be this time, satin or cotton

I wear panties most all the time now. I like to wear the cotton Hanes Hi-cut or the Fruit of the Loom Hi-cuts in colors and prints!

I have been fascinated by womens clothes, most especially their lingerie, for as long as I can remember and used to dress up in my mother's and sister's clothes whenever I could. I own a wardrobe of feminine clothes, including lots of underwear, including thongs, full knickers and shorts and wear them whenever I can. I am envious of women being allowed to dress as they please, whilst I have to conform to male dress, and I'd look better in a dress or skirt than some of the girls. We males should be allowed to dress as we please!
