What puts you off from buying undies?

[sheermesh]

For me personally, when underwear I like is No longer available, How expensive some underwear cost theses days. Majority of the underwear brands that I like are from the USA. it's the cost off shipping and postage and packaging and tax makes undies a niche and almost expensive items to purchase.

Not being able to find items in the market at all, underwear brands seem to doing the same thing as each other or No longer making certain styles or disregarding quality and comfort over style and profit.

Long dispatch time. Long delivery time. Long awaiting for any reply from brand/seller. Bad quality. Sticking out/loose threads. Low availability of colours.

Basically I avoid products from China.

I agree totally. I have several pairs I have had for many years that are wearing out and I would like more of them but they don’t make them anymore

I have quite a lot of underwear ( drawers full ) so it has got to be something that catches my eye in a style I maybe don't have already.

I unwillingly buy duplicates because of my eye candy distraction syndrome. So I have to check the “re-discovered country” of my drawers.

No one said anything about big companies like amazon or ebay (great variety) classifying what we are all calling erotic underwear as "gay" that just seems wrong to me.

I never realized they were categorizing this as gay underwear. I’ve bought so many, that I’ve duplicates of certain styles, just in different colors or fabric.

The problem is that all search engines are broken when you're trying to get something for men. It caches only certain part of the word and showing irrelevant items, as an example, you will type men thong and it will also use:
women thong

Meaning it will show you thong for both, since it doesnt understand that you actually meant only "men" not whatever has "men" in it, therefor a lot of sellers just use "gay" as a keyword, but it doesnt mean it can only be worn by gay. I don't really care what keywords, names or pictures they use as long as the names are not permanently placed on the product. I will wear whatever I want anyway.

I remember once someone said that pink is for ladies, not for men. Do I care about such an opinion? Not really. If I like pink, I will wear pink. Would I wear a nice product that name was "women pink open crotch"? If I like it, and it would fit me, I would. Would that mean I'm a woman? No

Oh I think I understand the search engine - and nor do I have any problem with any ones sexual orientation...it just sort of seems wrong for any seller to think that categorizing a garment to someones orientation seems inappropriate..."lesbian full back brief" ? a garment is made for a penis or a vagina and it should not matter what said genitalia goes looking for ?

Worst thing for me is ‘one size fits most’….
IT NEVER DOES!!

I have recently gotten back into wearing jockstraps. The jocks that I'm able to find these days are primarily "fashion" jocks. They are made for looks and not functionality. I find that the pouches in them are very narrow. That means my junk doesn't fit and spills over the sides. Not comfortable and definitely not sexy! So, I don't end up buying many. I keep wearing my old tried and true ones until they wear out.

What puts me off of buying new undies is overflowing drawers and my wife’s rationale head and every time she sees me looking at underwear sites she says “don’t you already have enough “…my brain says “but I don’t have those undies “

Exactly. If they left us alone, allowed us to spend $50 a month on new thongs, we’d be very happy l think

Simply put, I prefer wearing Speedos. I haven’t worn a-typical underwear for 20 years. Speedos FTW.
