Can't see polybore getting mantihose as am happy enough with long johns or my stockings and suspenders. (depending on the weather)

Will guys be buying them and what do the ladies make of them?

      Have your prayers been answered or are you calling for divine help?

      It's a more polite way of saying what the fcuk.
    3. polybore
      Are fcuk doing mantihose as well?

    It's to create a slim silhouette under your lean, stylish suits. Basically, it's Spanks for men.

    Slim all your manly jiggly bits.
    1. polybore
      Spanks sound interesting what are they?
  2. ThriftShopRomantic
    Oh dear.

    Though if it would be an end to seeing construction workers with butt cracks and too-low toolbelts, I might change my mind.
    1. polybore
      Hmm indeed.

    Our parent's generation called them foundation undergarments.

    Modern day corsets really...

    OMG now I can fit into my tight girl pants with ease! YIPPEEE!
    1. ThriftShopRomantic
      I'd like to see you try getting those mantihose around that Kool-Aid pitcher.
    2. trailofpen
      Don't dare me...
    3. scenexg
      I think thats how they make the kool-aid jammers

    Mantihose! lmfao. It reminds me of that episode of Seinfeld with the bra for men.

    This is no bra. Its a bro!
    1. ThriftShopRomantic
      Between the bro and the mantihose, that would be quite an outfit.
    2. polybore
      A bro for moobs.
    3. polybore
      @ThriftShopRomantic would make an interesting superhero outfit.
    4. ThriftShopRomantic
      It would.

      I will have to think about ideas for that superhero's name.
    5. scenexg
      You could call him MantiMan. Able to rip 3 pairs of mantihose at the same time without breaking a sweat! *theme music*
    6. ThriftShopRomantic
      Scene, have you considered a future in superhero PR?

      The first guy that shows up with superpowers, you should have a chat with him.
    7. scenexg
      You know it. I'm always ready to get some mantihose wearing heroes out on the streets! lol

    Oh boy...

    Well - yanno - it's about TIME men started having to buy all these little extras and being "HOT" to get anywhere in the world JUST LIKE WOMEN.

    I can't wait until AGE becomes an issue with men...

    And Makeup...

    And shaving armpits and legs...

    And wearing high heels...

    And bust implants....

    And dying their hair...

    Dang - don't the big companies make money off of public demand?

    I found it very interesting in a study I had to do - that we found that shaving your legs wasn't considered sexy until a BIG COMPANY who made razors decided to market it - and decided to put out lots of ads --- so they literally changed how America views women's legs. Just for PROFIT.

    LOL!

    Well - tell ya what - If you put these on poly - send me a picture... LOL!

    Have a lovely day!
    1. legbamel
      To be fair, you never saw the darned things until then anyway. If I were wearing hose and long skirts every day, I wouldn't shave, either. I imagine partners were so glad to get past the armor that they couldn't care less about a little hair.
    2. wagerwitch
      OMG - the visual imagery - LMAO! I'm just sitting here imagining the whole scene... Chastity belts and all! LMAO!

    I can imagine my face if I were to be with a guy and he was wearing one of those o_0 I would laugh, I'm sure I would!

      lol the merry men were way ahead of their time.
  9. dbowles1017
    I already ordered 10 pair
    1. Deray28
      different colors I hope
    2. dbowles1017
      Blackx2, whitex, orange, red, blue, pink, zebra print, leopard print, and lastly, tie dye
    3. Deray28
      leopard print! you can combine them with a leopard print snuggie!!! jajajajajajajajajajajajajajaajajajaja
    4. yourfindit
      Seems like a lot of people are getting their snuggies on for the winter. They have new colors now.
    5. dbowles1017
      If I wanted a snuggie I would just wear my robe backwards
    6. scenexg
      Snuggies piss me off!
    7. legbamel
      When I was a kid, a snuggie was the same thing as a wedgie. That makes some of the ads much more entertaining.
  10. maccasenior
    Before buying them, I'll put this question to you. Do you think my wife would object if I used her clear nail polish to fix up the holes in these man-stockings?
    1. ThriftShopRomantic
      It doesn't take much. As long as you let her know you were borrowing it, I imagine it would be okay.
  11. aningeniousname
    Those are perfect for performers who suffer from stage fright. I believe that was originally why ballet placed it's now feminised men into tights.
    1. polybore
      How does that work? Snug legs calm the fluttering heart?
    2. aningeniousname
      It stops them leaving a trail of liquid brown fear all over the stage. Swan lake wouldn't be the same spectacle without the tights.
    3. polybore
      Ah so the classic sock enhanced bulge at the front of the tights is there to offset any potential bulge at the rear. Makes sense.
  12. crazyTsu
    Hmm.. could gift one to a deserving girly this Christmas
  13. bettieblogger
    This is acceptable ... if your in the ballet o_0
  14. Deray28
    Here is a fine example of how NOT to use a mantihose

    Doesn't Under Armour already make such things?

    www.underarmour.com/shop/us/en/mens/apparel/bottoms
    1. Deray28
      jajajaja they call them leggings but it's the same thing!
    2. dbowles1017
      Under Armour is for athletic activities...
    3. Agit8r
      @De; "Leggings" is just as bad.

      @DB; yes, "for"... but people abuse it
  16. anthony9910
