A Guide To The Most Controversial Style Of Men’s Underwear

I have a confession: I wear briefs. Always have, always will. Over the years, people have asked me a lot of questions about my underwear choice:

• “Why do you wear briefs?”
• “Have you ever tried boxer shorts?”
• “Can you please leave this dining establishment if you’re not going to wear pants over those?”

All great questions. So to help spread the word about this misunderstood style of underwear, I’ve assembled the most common questions people ask about briefs.

What are “briefs” underwear?

Briefs are form-fitting men’s underwear that don’t cover your thighs. Basically, brief underwear covers your butt cheeks, hides your junk, and that’s it. They are all about comfort and function over fashion. Briefs are reliable, and a timeless choice.

What is the history of briefs?

The first briefs were invented after a caveman stepped over a fire and burnt his cavemanhood. Once word of that event spread, people realized the benefits of wearing a protective layer of clothing under their loincloths.

Are all briefs tighty-whities?

No. It’s like how all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares. Tighty-whities are always briefs, but if a pair of briefs is any color other than white, they’re not tighty-whities.

Briefs v. Boxer Briefs - What’s the difference?

The legs. Boxer briefs provide coverage for your thighs, whereas briefs don’t. Why does underwear need to cover your thighs? It doesn’t. That’s just a useless 4 inches of fabric that most men insist on having because they’re too insecure to proudly wear briefs.

I wore briefs as a kid. Why don’t I wear them anymore?

We all wore briefs when we were little. Then we stopped around middle school because we had to change in locker rooms and bullies made fun of us for wearing briefs instead of boxers. We’re both still emotionally traumatized from this experience and as a result haven’t worn briefs for over 20 years. Every day you slip into a pair of boxers or boxer briefs, you’re just letting the bullies win again.

What are the pros and cons of wearing briefs?

Pros:

• Can fit more pairs in a suitcase while traveling
• Often cheaper because they use less fabric
• Show off your toned thighs since you never skip leg day

Cons:

• Look like a diaper
• Visible panty lines (manty lines?)
• People will think your mom still lays out your clothes every morning
