It's fathers day and if you bought a gift for your daddy, I hope it was underwear.
A recent survey by Jockey revealed that more than one-fourth of men in America own underwear that is five or more years old! (And I'm guessing they're not counting collectors like myself.)
A shocking 11 percent of men own underwear that is aged over a decade! Seventy-seven percent admit that their old drawers are tattered, discolored, or stained. Just a small group of Americans [probably all UndiesDrawer readers] -- (23%) -- say theirs are just like new.
Men admit that they are holding on to old underwear despite the fact that it no longer fits (15%); has lost elasticity (30%); is stained/not the original color (36%); or is covered in holes (14%).
Geez, do your fellow man a favor and introduce him to UndiesDrawer so he can buy some new underwear and end this shameful state in America.
Laziness and not caring about themselves is my guess. Then on the other hand there are guys like me that will spend a hundred dollars or more a month buying new stuff,'cause of blogs like this one. Or to put it another way I have 6 chest of drawers filled.
