Whoever said it’s inappropriate to talk about ladies’ underwear obviously didn’t catch a glance of the AXE Facebook page last week, because it was absolute mayhem. Comment mayhem that is. When trying to decide what I should write about for this week’s topic – underwear – I thought what better than to hear what dudes have to say about women’s unmentionables. And man did they have a lot to say! It was actually quite interesting how opinionated the males were about female clothing. So interesting that you should go to the AXE Facebook page and check it out! On second thought, I’ll just tell you here…
To break it down, I asked one “underwear question” per day from Tuesday to Friday last week. Each day was a little bit different but they all related back to what women wear underneath it all.
Day 1: Have you ever bought lingerie for a girlfriend/wife? What was that experience like?
Interesting way to start off the week that’s for sure. One guy cited that he had indeed purchased lingerie not just once but a few times! Overall he said it was a positive experience with a definite payoff in the end… we’ll leave the rest to your imagination.
Day 2: Does it matter to you if a girl’s underwear is matching or not?
This was a popular question that bred a bunch of very similar answers. When it comes down to it, guys could really care less if the bra matches the underwear and vice versa. I mean, as a girl you definitely get a boost of confidence when you know the underneath is looking just as good as your clothes. But when it comes to impressing the fellas, they only care about one thing, and it ain’t a colour combo…
Day 3: Underwear poll of the day - What is your favourite type of underwear on a girl? A. Granny panties B. Thong C. Boy shorts
Holy comments AXEman! After a whopping fourty-three comments on the AXE Facebook page, the guys just couldn’t decide between option B and option C. Based on the first few comments it seemed as though they liked the least amount of fabric the best. Au contraire mon frère! Playing the part of the underdog, boy shorts made a big comeback in the standings only to end in a dead heat. According to the men of AXE, boy shorts bring an element of mystery to the table and leave the rest to the imagination. As for any alternative answers, well, those guys weren’t big fans of mystery.
Day 4: Guys, what’s YOUR favourite type of underwear to wear?
It was no surprise when boxers emerged as the clear winner in this one. The vote was for the most part unanimous, minus the random commando shoutout and mom reference. But like I stated in my previous post, if I had to choose I would go boxers too… not that it matters.
So that wraps up “Underwear Week.” I hope you enjoyed the findings and joined the fun on the AXE Facebook page. If you just missed out on the action, no worries, everyone loves a random underwear comment from time to time. Be my guest, hit up the group and let me know what you’re rocking today! Here’s hoping you don’t jump on Al Hal’s man thong bandwagon. Because that’s just not good for anybody.
Until next time,
Mismatched Jaime
