Boxers or briefs? It's the age old question. Everybody from Michael Jordan to Bill Clinton has been asked it on live television. It used to be a running gag that women all over the world always wanted to know what a man was wearing under their and usually the men answered loud and clear. Just why did this become such a trend? A simple clothing-related question became one of the most important questions of the twentieth century. How on earth did this happen and why?
People love questions. Questions, especially those non-important ones, have always fascinated people. Clothing faux pas, traditions and other nonsense has circulated for years. Everyone has been told once not to wear white after Memorial Day, or something to that nature, and if you do you're supposedly the most out-of-date fashion disaster on the planet. So, following this pattern, the question of whether one wears boxers or briefs became the same sort of outlet for the trends in fashion. Do you wear boxers or briefs? How thought-provoking!
Statistically speaking, most guys wear boxers, it's healthier for them to do so than to constrain themselves with briefs. Doctors will recommend boxers in many circumstances especially if the male in question is sick or otherwise ill. Boxers are more comfortable, whereas briefs can be uncomfortable, itchy and sometimes downright horrible to a man. When it comes down it, boxers are the best choice for any guy, hands down, and most celebrity men admit to wearing boxers when asked. Briefs are good for certain events, when you want to make sure everything is clean-cut and in place. If you enjoy wearing them, wear them, don't let popularity pick what underwear you wear. At the end of the day, boxers or briefs, they're both just underwear that guys wear.
The fashion world has always been fascinated by what celebrities where and this won't change any time soon. Questions like this will come and go just like the fashion trends that come along with them, this is just a fact of life, and eventually one question will rise and it will fall, then, another question will come along. All-in-all, it's just like a fashion trend, except you don't wear questions on your sleeve or accessorize with answers.
