MANTYHOSE: "It looks nice". Whooo-WHAT?! And what are the chances of
e-MANcipate actually "accelerating the acceptance of male pantyhose as a regular clothing item"? I need to know.

I know a guy who used to wear pantyhose under his jeans when riding his motorcycle. Said they kept him super-warm.

The Navy Seals wore women's silk panties back in the day, to keep the sand out of their manly bits.

Motorcycle racing leathers stick to your skin when you sweat, so you get some sort of lycra, nylon or spandex 'tard to help it slide off. I wear silk long underwear from REI because it was a few bucks cheaper than lycra.

They improve the circulation in your legs, too. I'm all for it. That said, there isn't a chance in Hell that this will catch on.

When I was in the Army, I (and plenty of other guys) wore pantyhose on long road marches to keep from chafing.

They haven't heard: body hair on men is back in.

I myself only wear fishnets.

#6 - pictures please

@5,

Which is another good argument against this catching on. Hair under pantyhose is gross.

Posted by keshmeshi on January 9, 2009 at 12:45 PM

Hairy legs in pantyhose is gross *and* uncomfortable.

@7 Second that.

Bah. Real men wear garters!

Sorry, I can't find a pic of the fishnets, but here's the rest of me: http://www.flickr.com/photos/solidground…

Those would ride up in my Mangina.

Fnarf, I think I'd actually rather see you stuff quarters up your nose.

Posted by Fifty-Two-Eighty on January 9, 2009 at 1:16 PM

The combination of a hard dick and pantyhose is kind of hot.

I've heard.

Posted by violet_dagrinder on January 9, 2009 at 1:21 PM

Pantyhose don't even look good on women.

Posted by pox on January 9, 2009 at 1:31 PM

@14: I'm giving that #1 awesome combo a big fuck yeah.

I love the sound of the guy in the background completely loosing it laughing.

#4, gold bond works well for that (old drum and bugle corps trick).

Bro! Mansiere! Bro! Mansiere!

When I lived in Japan (Hiroshima) in the early '80's, "men's tights" were a common article of apparel in the stores. They were pantyhose with a fly built in, and were sold for winter wear under suits & etc as an extra layer of warmth. Don't know if they're still sold there, haven't been back in a long time, but they sure kept me warm while riding my bike to & from work in the snow & etc.

I can't figure out why women wear those things. So, I have no idea whether men will. Ditto for high heals.

props to whoever it was laughing their ass off in the background.

I love the way they look from behind. Hairy butt stuffed in panties is hot!
