Boy Shorts!

Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

Boy Shorts!

Post by DALederle »

I was in Wallymart the other day and saw a big display in the women's wear section.
It was called "boy shorts" and while I didn't go over to look very closely I could see that there were package three in a box. It looked like they were selling boy's boxer underwear, complete with a front fly, for women to wear.
Don't know why women or girls wold want to go this far in emulating males but it must be a big idea, given the size of the display.
Anyone else heard about this new development?

Boy shorts have been around a number of years.
They are styled as an abbreviated bike short;
high on the thigh - low rise waist - and very
tight fitting. This years trend is to have a
false fly panel to resemble mens/boys underwear.
They can be plain; solid color or print and the
seams and edging of contrasting color.
Not terribly practical for males due to the
tight contour fitting - "no room within".

Definitely No Kilt here!

"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

I wear boyshort panties. I just get a size bigger & they fit fine. I also wear bikini, hip hugger, and high cut brief panties. I find them 100% more comfortable than mens undies.

Dennis, et-al- - - -

Please remember that if an item of clothing can be seen by the public,
that item is open for discussion. If it can't be seen by the public,
it is not open for discussion
.


This 'Arena' has previously caused many problems and flame wars. I've
seen it and don't appreciate it. Too many people got hurt in the 'wars'.
I've stuck around for many years and have witnessed the departure of
many fine patrons from the Cafe'. Some are beginning to come back.

Let's put out this potential FIRE, and not continue this thread :mrgreen:

Thanks for that Al. It saved me the trouble of reaching for that drattedly-scratchy "mod hat". :lol:
