Do guys really want underwear and swim wear that “enhances” their package? I’ve noticed recently an influx of designer underwear and swimwear with a built in elasticated ring that guys are supposed to put their dangly bits in, this has the apparent “desired” affect of making your banana and plumbs stand out more from your body, thus making them appear bigger than they actually are.

Well I don’t know about you lot, but I’m a realist, I get awfully disappointed if the contents of a big box don’t live up to expectations.

Not that I’m a size queen in anyway, you understand. It’s just false advertising and that’s just plain wrong.

As for the enhanced underwear or “wonderjock” as some designers, who will remain nameless, are calling them. Who are they aimed at? The person wearing them or the person who will be exposed to them. In the first instance it’s just fooling yourself, in the second instance who else will see you in your underwear but other guys at the gym/sports club or your partner of whatever sexual persuasion you prefer. In the last case, surely they already know the size of your bits anyway, so who are you fooling!

So, are these pants aimed at the gay male market or maybe those so called metrosexuals for whom looking good isn’t a gay thing, but a pride thing.

Who knows? I’ll tell you one thing however, I hope they’re not aimed at me! You could have someones eye out with a package like that!
