I was raised in tighty-whities switched to boxer briefs when I grew up... somehow I got convinced it is healthier "set the boyz free" and switched to boxers...
I'm a little curious if the new boxer briefs with the new high tech fabrics might be the best of both worlds, but I suppose they are way more $$$ than than average under wear... and frankly I think only women should be allowed to drop $30-60 on underwear
(yeah, I'm an old fart)
