time and cost to sew boxer shorts?

My younger son, now 30 (how did that happen???) rides his bike or walks to get around. He has thighs like tree trunks - mature trees. He's had a time finding any underwear that he doesn't have to cut the sides to keep them from cutting off circulation, or even to get them on. He wore boxers for years, and I knew what brands and styles to seek out. He's recently found another kind of undies that he likes and that are comfortable. But it has never been easy. His boxers never did "flap."

Do I? I know I'm not alone in thinking that boxer shorts are ghastly. Everytime they feature in an American movie, the women in the theatre all groan.

You

Do I? If American movie stars (who don't get to show themselves in undies unless they are supposedly worth looking at) can't make the look appealing, then I'l stick to my view that there is no man alive who can do so.

Underwear that looks and fits like running shorts is gross. I know I'd get a right yelling at if I bought such garments for the men in my extended family.

They assure me

I know of an 80 year old who says exactly the same thing. I don't know anyone under 80 who would confess to wearing boxer shorts.

Indeed, that is why it is a waste to use it on a bear's bum or on an 80 year old.

LOL. Wonder if he'll change his opinion once there is the possibility of an alluring female seeing what he's wearing under the jeans?

Ah, now I remember why I created a rule to mark all your posts "ignore'. How old are you, 16? You do know, I suppose (but maybe not, you seem not to have a very high intelligence) that someday, if you are very lucky, YOU will be old. Your denigrating people of a certain age, is rightly called ageism, and is very unattractive. I feel sorry for anyone over 18 in your family or acquaintanceship.

Beverly, updating the killfile....

Probably not. His dad never has...

I'd have to be highly unintelligent to believe that comment in the face of the evidence. And I've got to say that I don't hold a high opinion of you for making such a ludicrous statement.

You not only read my post, but you have just responded to it. "Ignore" indeed! No doubt that 'ignore' also explains why it is that you have responded to so many of my previous posts?

And not just responded by attaching your response onto the end of someone else's post, but actually responded directly to MY posts. You are so busy 'ignoring' my posts that you are the first to respond to my previous post.

Why lie? You may think that is an 'attractive' character trait but I think it is a very poor character trait that reflects very poorly on you.

I don't find telling lies, being parochial or being a hypocrite at all attractive but you seemingly don't mind exhibiting those traits.

I'm not 16. I'm WAY past menopause. (And that is not early onset menopause either).

If you were able to demonstrate any intelligence above the level of using an obvious lie, then perhaps you could have figured out that the style of underwear worn around the world can be hugely varied. That also means that the opinions on underwear is also hugely varied as is the way they are described.

I don't like boxer shorts. I'm entitled to hold that opinion. I hold that opinion strongly and have expressed that view strongly.

You have no right to insult me simply because I hold an opinion strongly.

You have no right to insult me because I express my opinion strongly.

You have no right to insult me because I report the opinion expressed by other women I know or because I use the words that we all use to describe boxer shorts.

If you had any decency you would apologise for your lie and because you have not been similarly insulting to Olwyn Mary or to Pogonip because they too hold strong opinions.

I know I'll be waiting till hell freezes over for such an apology.

Really? No doubt you've updated that just like you claim to have done with the 'ignore'.

So, why what prompted you to ask "what about me?"? Am I incorrect in assuming that you had been trained to the sight of boxer shorts by his Dad? Or did you just want to press home the point that you (who does count despite what he thinks) would see him in his underdungers?

DS here just turned 13 and has the same opinion. Although a few of his jeans are getting baggy in the waist. So sometimes we all see them. LOL We just tell him what color today's boxers are and he hitches up the jeans. ;)

Builders Bum here would mean that you'd be able to post a letter in what could be seen. And probably an A4 sized letter at that.

Generally 'round here teenagers tend to wear 'satin' boxers although cotton knit are becoming trendier.

What I hate are the 'boys' that wear the satin boxers at the correct position but the shorts/ jeans are well below the bum cheeks It seems to be older men that tend to show their 'crack'
