Unmentionables
How come the men's underwear ads in the Sunday sale circulars these days never actually show any pictures of guys in their underwear? I can remember being absolutely titillated as a young, gay lad at the sight of those big strong men posing (for me) in their underwear in those K-Mart ads; Their huge, possibly enhanced, definitely sexy, manly bulges straining so hard against those soft, white, 100% cotton briefs. I remember studying them so intensely to see if I could trace the outline of their shafts or see the impression of their bulbous cock heads through the fabric. My parents had to wonder why I always skipped the Sunday comics and went straight for the sale circulars. They must have thought that I was an extremely value conscious child.It was the closest thing to a naked man that I would get to see at 6 years old. Well, besides my father in the shower, that is. But, I wasn't the type of kid who got off on seeing my father naked. Gross!
Now, all you see in the ads are pictures of the packages of underwear. No more hot, half-naked men. No more tighty whities contoured snugly around big, meaty packages filled with man-sized cocks and balls. No more staring lustfully at the Sears men's clothing ads while getting a little stiffy in my pants...
** sigh **
Young gay kids today are being so cheated, and they don't even know it.
Well, at least there are still Undergear catalogs for me.

I remember I looked forward to Father's Day, as all the clothing stores would advertise men in underwear. Ahhh, those were the days.
I remember a Sears catalogue in the late seventies. There was a spot on the picture just at the inside bottom of the boxers. Everyone said it was the mans head hanging out. I kept theat page forever, looking and hoping to see it really was.
I remember that too! Mmm...Jim Palmer Jockey ads...and the Sears catalog was frikkin' porn!
Seriously though, do you think the lack of shirtless male underwear models is due to increased Puritanism, or perhaps it is cheaper to just show underwear, and not the underwear + model?
I was totally a Sear's catalog boy... esp. cuz they always had some hot looking Dad type with a furry chest :-) I still get a little chub thinking about those days :-)
