Men's Favorite Lingerie - Sexy or Slutty



Is men's favorite lingerie sexy or slutty lingerie? What difference does it make if a men's favorite lingerie is slutty or sexy lingerie? Why should we care what are men's favorite lingerie items? Simply put, many,but not all women wear lingerie for the men in their lives. Even if a woman doesn't wear lingerie for a man, men's ideas of what is sexy is at least interesting, and perhaps instructional. It is said that men are more visual than women. What does that mean? Does it mean men use visual methods of determining which women are good for breeding? Or men engage in and enjoy visual media like magazines and videos which depict sexual images or sexual contact? Historically men judge who they will mate with on the basis of appearance more than women? Whatever the truth is, and for what good it does, the truth is men love to see women whether they be dressed or undressed. The comedian , Ron "Tater Salad" White says in his act something to the effect of " once you see one woman naked, well you wanna see them all naked"!

This isn't the place to argue about human evolution, whether men are more visual than women, and what arouses men. The truth is that lingerie is a lubricant in the human sexual machine. Lingerie is sexy clothing, and we girls can learn something about what looks good, and not so good from what men like. Forget about whether we wear sexy panties for men, for women or for ourselves. Accept the fact that panties can be utilitarian as in a cloth covering used for sanitary purposes, or much more than that, as in erotic clothing used to arouse and stimulate emotion. Don't forget, this isn't a scientific study, girls, as I am getting a lot of my input from my husband, his friends and other men in our circle of friends. Is it conclusive, no, but I think much of it has value, as their opinions, and my experiences may be interesting and possibly even educational. On second thought I don't think they rise to the level of educational, but they are fun to write about.



First, lets start at the beginning. That beginning is sexy panties, as they are what women likely put on first in the morning! Today, less is more and the same can be said for panties. When the contest is what are men's favorite panties? Thongs and g-strings are the winner. A thong exposes a woman's butt, and that is a good thing. The wisp of fabric that frames a woman's bottom is provocative and appealing. You say that you don't have the butt for it, well get over it! There is nothing worse that a pair of full bottom, full back granny panties. Full coverage is simply wrong. Remember we are looking at this subject from a man's perspective and showing off your assets is paramount. If you are of the school that thongs are mere butt floss, and you don't like how they feel climbing between your cheeks, remember the name of the article. We are talking about men's favorite lingerie, and the clear winner is thongs and g-strings over granny panties. Nothing turns a man off more than the sight of a pair of nude panties the size of New Jersey that hang between the belly button and the upper thigh with enough fabric to cover the car in the driveway. Hence, the name granny panties.

Thongs are the most popular women's panties and this is a relatively recent development. Bikini panties were the sexy panties of a couple of generations ago, but now the thong is king, or queen. Somewhere in there is the g-string pantie as a skimpier cousin of the thong. While some men find a woman's breasts as their favorite female body part, many are butt lovers, and who can blame them. The thong exposes the female butt unlike any bra can accent the breasts. Thongs are a mere wisp of fabric that covers the nether region in front with a small amount of cloth, but leaves the back end of a woman completely exposed. The term whale tail
was coined to describe the look of a woman's back with the thong or g-string pantie peeking out as it can be said to look like a whales tail. Love them or hate them, they are here to stay, at least until another fashion trend appears. Showing off your thong panties may be fading in popularity as exposing your coin slot, or the cleavage between your butt cheeks is now considered trampy in some circles. Men, though seem to love the sight of a woman's whale tail or coin slot. Go figure!

The exception to the thong supremacy is sheer panties. Sheer panties can have fuller coverage as they cover and they don't cover. What? Well, sheer fabric makes a woman's body look positively exquisite. Exquisite? Yes, I said it, so run out and buy sheer panties and ask the guy in your life what he thinks. I guarantee he will love them for the way they look and feel. Sinfully sexy and sheerly sensuous. Don't argue with me, just do it and gauge the reaction. Sheer fabric is a staple in the lingerie business and the reason is year in and year out, sheer sells! A sheer pair of panties under a short skirt is a voyeurs paradise. Sheer fabric is very sexy and every woman should have at least one pair of sheer black panties, even fishnet will do. Remember panties are sexy lingerie, and nothing will please him like you showing him your new pair of thongs or sheer panties.



Since we are on the subject of panties, how can we ignore the crotchless panties ?What is the point you ask? The point is these crotchless panties may be outside your comfort zone, right? Well, he will love the thought of his girl wearing naughty panties that only you and he know have a strategically open crotch. They are made in a variety of styles and colors, and are hugely popular online. Order them online and no one has to know except the two of you, and I promise it will improve your relationship, or at least improve the heat in your romance thermometer. We will leave the subject of vibrating panties for another time, as that is a whole nother enchilada.



Bras are the next essential lingerie item, and luckily girls, they come in all shapes and sizes. Again one sure winner is the sheer underwire bra. They are available everywhere, as women buy them as they show off your breasts, offer support and spill out cleavage. Lace bras are a perennial favorite as well as they are feminine and sexy. But, again men are dogs, and they love the shelf bras and boob out bras. Shelf bras are exactly what the name implies. The bra is more of a shelf than a full coverage bra. You will feel sinful with this bra on underneath your blouse or sweater. The obvious benefit is that your nipples are exposed, and every man loves a pair of headlights in plain view. Boob out bras also give the same effect with only the nipples or nipple area exposed. The boob out bra offers more support than the shelf bra, so you decide. He will love you for either choice.



Before we leave bras and panties, the truth is the choices of bras and panties are awesome, even overwhelming. Experiment with your choices, but if the budget is tight, go for the gold. A sexy pair of panties and a sinfully sheer bra can be the basis of a sexy outfit and he will never tire of looking at the package. After all you are covering the two essential areas of a woman's body, and it is difficult to go wrong as long as you keep in mind that sexy is a pretty simple concept to most men. Simply put, make it sheer, skimpy, short or tight. Black is generally the best color, and try to get a good spandex mix for comfort and fit. Remember, these sexy bits of apparel should perform double duty. Wear them under your work clothes, not just for a romantic evening. Make them a matching set and you both will enjoy them for a long time. Take some time to shop for lingerie with the combination of sex appeal, comfort and functionality. Yes, enjoy the sexy lingerie, wear it and show it off!

Why do I wear Sexy Lingerie?



Why do I wear sexy lingerie is an easy question to answer. I wear sexy lingerie because sexy lingerie makes me look sexy and appealing and sexy lingerie arouses my husband which makes me feel powerful and desirable. What do you think of when someone mentions lingerie? Sex, is the response many will answer. Lingerie is synonymous with romance and intimacy. Mention the word lingerie, and immediately the thought of a romantic encounter between a man and a woman comes to mind. The french word lingerie means women's intimate apparel. Intimate means, well intimate, as in panties, bras and items that women wear around or near her erogenous zones. Many men are uncomfortable going into a lingerie department or lingerie store as though every one will know why they are buying that lingerie. The thought of wearing sexy and skimpy lingerie makes many women a bit nervous, me included. Most lingerie exposes my tummy, and thighs which isn't always a good thing. I have a couple of drawers full of bra sets, teddies, thigh high hose and more, most of which was worn one time in the privacy of my bedroom, or out of the glare of anyone but my husbands eyes. So the question is why do I wear sexy lingerie?



One answer is because the men in my life have bought it for me, suggested or insisted I purchase it and as I get older I like showing off my sexuality. So there I said it! I wear it for him, more than for me. When my first boyfriend suggested I wear sexy underwear, I had the body for it, but not the inclination. After I got married, my husband went to Connecticut for a three week business trip, and came home with a silk cami tap set, which was worn only occasionally. While it was really pretty, the tap pants were not form fitting, and I didn't like the color-cream, so began the lingerie drawer.

I should draw a distinction that exists when it comes to lingerie. There is lingerie, and then there is sexy lingerie. Most every woman wears lingerie every day, whether to work, at home or out for an evening to dinner or the movies. They may not call it lingerie, as wearing a bra and panties hardly qualifies as lingerie, but in fact it is. Sexy lingerie is both a physical and spiritual definition. Huh? Well women often buy lingerie for a purpose. When the purpose is for work, or everyday wear, that, in my opinion, is lingerie or foundations .

Foundations? Yes. foundations are bras, panties and shapers formerly known as girdles and other every day underwear worn by women every day, all day from the time they get out of the shower, to the time they arrive at home and dress for the evening. Sexy lingerie is usually less supportive, more feminine, more revealing, and generally not worn to work. Sexy lingerie is what women wear when romance is on her mind, or on her man's mind. I may be wrong, but I doubt my husband will buy me a shaper if he desires an evening of romance. You think?





The lingerie I wear every day, I buy for myself, not my man, or anyone else for that matter. That lingerie needs to be comfortable, offer me support as I am a 38D bra size, and most sexy lingerie doesn't meet the requirements. Lingerie as intimate apparel is functional, comfortable and possibly sexy. While I like feeling and looking sexy, it is not a priority when I am wearing lingerie all day, and wishing I hadn't. My lingerie drawers, not my sexy lingerie drawer is full of bras, panties and hose. The primary color is black with occasional nude and white, perhaps a navy blue. My sexy lingerie drawer has reds, black and no nude.

While I might wear sexy lingerie more often if I had a "perfect body" I doubt it. Sexy lingerie is generally a novelty and everyone knows you don't need lingerie for an evening of romance. So why do I wear sexy lingerie? Because the moment I think of wearing lingerie my imagination gets a little boost. A woman in sexy lingerie is sexier than a woman in the nude. While this could create a huge argument, that is my opinion. A nude woman is very sexy, it is just that a woman in the right sexy lingerie is sexier! I know that there is a difference of opinion about this, but here is my case. If clothes make the man, then sexy lingerie makes a woman appear sexier, more desirable and alluring. Sexy lingerie is all about the visual story or drama a woman creates with the various sexy lingerie items she wear. A sexy shelf bra makes a woman's breasts look larger, and exaggerates them in a very suggestive manner, pushing them up and out. A garter belt is old school sexy that is very suggestive of a sexual being, an erotic look that is very sexy, in this context. What is sexier than a pair of panties, sheer perhaps, covering, just barely a woman's most private part and then a pair of stockings held up by the garters. The picture this woman creates is one of suggestive sexuality. Add a pair of high heels, and the look is complete.




Getting dressed in this sexy lingerie outfit is sure to put you in the mood for romance. I rarely wear a shelf bra as it exaggerates my bust, and this is reserved for special moments. While I have many sheer panties, the garter belt is truly a step back in time. Pantyhose almost threatened to relegate garter belts to the trash heap of clothing history along with nehru jackets ,and leisure suits. A garter belt takes time to put on and along with slipping on the thigh high stockings, is not quite as simple as slipping on a pair of hideous panty hose. It is impossible to look at myself in this outfit without thinking " I am sexier than before I put this on"., to say the least. I know that when he sees me in this outfit, I am hot. I feel hot, I look hot.

So why don't I wear this more often? Or outfits similar to this? I have thought about this and I think there are a couple of reasons. One is time, or spontaneity. While it doesn't take a long time to get dressed this way, I feel compelled to redo my makeup, fix my hair and get dressed so the time is a factor. Next is I feel very exposed. Obviously, right! But I also mean there is little left to the imagination here. Shelf bra, sheer panties, thigh highs and high heels. My insecurities get in the way. Once I am dressed, I do feel and look sexy, at least he thinks so. Perhaps if I was more of an exhibitionist I would go for it more often. If it is true that there is a time and a place for everything then there is a time and a place for sexy lingerie. The time and the place are generally at night, on the weekends and on vacation. Many couples, including myself have a sort of ritual for wearing sexy lingerie. Due to its charged nature, sexy lingerie sends a distinct message reserved for the lover in your life. The question some men may ask is "why don't you greet me in the evening after work at the door with a martini in one hand, wearing skimpy lingerie"? The answer is likely either "the kids will see me half naked", or perhaps "I am not the type to just dress up in lingerie because that will tell you what I want"!

The message sent by wearing sexy lingerie is unmistakably sexual or romantic. Lingerie and romance are inextricably intertwined and no one mistakes wearing lingerie for anything else. One wears sexy lingerie to encourage intimacy, but why wear it at all? Why not just go naked? Why waste the money buying lingerie when it just stays on a few minutes anyway? It is a method of expressing a woman's sexuality, showing off her erogenous zones in a flattering way. Many of the things we do are genetically wired into us as men and women. I am not suggesting that sexy lingerie is in our genetic code but expressing our needs certainly is. Wearing sexy lingerie is a ritual of sorts and the older we get the stronger the desire to engage in the ritual becomes. I wear sexy lingerie in part because everyone tells me to wear it! Television, commercials, movies, men, women, even parents all reinforce the idea of wearing lingerie for the sake of romance. I wear it for me, for him because when I am buying it I am thinking about romance, when I am wearing it there is little else one can think of other than intimacy. I associate sexy lingerie with very pleasant memories, adult encounters and adult pleasures. I wear sexy lingerie because it makes me feel good! It makes me look more feminine, more like a woman, more desirable and of course, sexy.
