    We have Andrew Christian, Aussiebum, Box, and oh so many more brands. But the main difference is comfort and style.

    Need a bigger pouch? We have you covered. Do you get a little clammy down there? Try separate pouches for the bells and whistle. Want to show off? We have the push up bra of underwear. Do you like to walk around the house in your underwear but you have nowhere to put your phone? We have hipster shorts with pockets!

    Gay underwear is just superior to the smalls most straight guys wear. They’re also more colourful and attractive. Why should women be the only ones wearing nice undergarments?

    Until recently I worked for a big telecoms company as a software engineer. We had time set aside for self development and non-work projects. Originally it was half a day a week, but we found it better to be a day every fortnight.

    You could learn a new programming language or tool, build something just for fun or something you thought was useful for the team (we built a custom dashboard with notices etc., a quiz engine for weekly quizzes), or add functionality to a project that wasn’t specced or requested, but you thought could add value.

    After a while, a department wide code wars league was set up to challenge and learn, we had a yearly Easter egg hunt that involved solving puzzles to find prizes, people did lightning talks to teach things that they’d learnt, workshops, etc.

    So much knowledge, skill and confidence was added to the team that was worth way more than what we’d do on any normal day. I’d recommend it to any technical team to try something similar.

    This is a message to all straight guys: buy gay underwear!

    Get yourself on Andrew Christian, Box, or Aussiebum, or any of the other underwear sites that cater to gay men. We have styles of underwear you wouldn’t believe. Yes there’ll be rainbows on a bunch of them, but there’s plenty that are more “reserved”.

    BUT, what we do have is a wide range of styles that are comfortable and sexy. We have underwear that separates your cock from your balls, which are really comfortable. We have styles that allow you to show off, or act demure. We have boxer shorts that have freaking pockets!

    And because the queer community largely (not always, but we’re working on it) accepts all body types, we even cater to larger guys who need a little more room in their smalls.

    Seriously boys, get yourself some sexy gay undies. Your junk, and your partners, will thank you.

    Have you heard of “false friends?” Words that have come from one language into another, but due to use have completely changed meaning along the way, often to mean the exact opposite of their original meaning. This is common enough that, especially if you speak a Latin based language and learn English as a second language, you’ll see them everywhere.

    My point is, that this is not an internet phenomena and has been a feature of languages since there has been language. Some don’t last long, others are so embedded in our lexicons that we don’t even notice.
