I think for a lot of people, when they think of bikini briefs for men, their mind immediately either goes to the skimpy posing trunk style that professional bodybuilders wear or the stereotypical (often animal print) kind that was more popular in the 70s and 80s.

That is great to hear. I wish that at that age I would have had an older male figure that was encouraging about trying out skimpy underwear. Definitely would have solved a lot of body image issues as an adolescent.

I miss when brands like Hanes and Fruit of the Loom actually took chances and put out bikinis and skimpier underwear for men. Fruit of the Loom made string bikinis and thongs for men in the early to mid 2000s and then just never brought them back.

Sizing has been an issue for me last few years too. When it comes to most clothes, I can fit fine into medium clothes, but underwear is a little trickier since I have a big butt and legs. I started buying large for some brands just out of convenience.

Jockey might be one of the worst offenders ...

My dad pretty much always did this when I was growing up. Although he never wore thongs, it was perfectly normal to see him walking around in his briefs after he got home or on weekends in the morning. I wasn't embarrassed in any way by it, if anything it showed how comfortable he was with his own ...

Any guys out there ever try out wearing a fundoshi? It is a traditional Japanese loincloth used as underwear made from a single length of cloth, occasionally worn as swimwear, too.

I feel the same way. There's something so masculine and sexy about them. Also started from a young act watching soap operas in Spanish on TV in the 90s when hunky leading men would often be shown in their skimpy underwear and swimsuits, usually bikinis or briefs of some kind. I also gained an ...

I've been there a handful of times, mostly with a friend who regularly buys there. Personally Andrew Christian is not really my style. I think most of the designs are a little too gaudy for me, but I have bought some swim briefs there that were very comfortable.

A long time ago (early 2000s), Fruit of the Loom used to make thongs for men. Can't remember if they stocked them at Walmart, but Target definitely had them back in the day. Sadly it seems like men's underwear manufacturers in general have become much less enterprising. It feels like the string ...

I usually wear briefs or bikini briefs to the gym. Once I was out of high school, I stopped caring. I've been going to gyms for several years now and never had anyone say anything about them.

I will say in middle school I was one of those kids that would either wear boxers or wear my briefs ...
