Men’s Underwear a Boost in More Ways Than One?

The JINGLE BOYS DVD exudes confidence. Do you?

So, is it true, what some manufactures of men’s underwear claim and some psychologists say, that if an man’s comfortable in what’s next to the most intimate parts of his skin, he’s more comfortable with himself? And, if that underwear gives him a boost in the private parts, does it give him confidence that extends into the rest of his life?

There’s underwear that slims, underwear that enhances, underwear that adds bulk and underwear that can tweak your personality—but does it, in the end, create a new you, build you up and make you brimming with vim and vigor? Or does it set you up for a big crash?

One article I found on the Net (which did not list the author) claimed that, “There is no doubt that slimming underwear does help flatten out a protruding tummy. Not only does it have a physical change on the body, it also has a psychological effect: men just feel more confident. Their heads are higher and their backs are straighter. If there is a formal occasion to attend, guys should definitely get the type of body shapewear that will make them look good in a tuxedo.”

And although the observations of the writer in the above article may be true, there’s no evidence, data, offered to back up the opinions concerning the positive effect of “slimming underwear” for men. In fact, if you wear slimming underwear long enough, you’re not going to feel confident, you’re going to feel sore and tired from tightly enclosing all that flab for so long.

Here’s what top designer Andrew Christian says about his enhancing and slimming undies. “I am targeting every man out there with this underwear. I want to make men feel confident when they go out, and what man doesn't want to seem bigger down there? Therefore I offer them this with my new Show-It Underwear, which not only lifts a man's package, it also draws the eyes directly to that area. It also includes anti-muffin top elastic to slim the appearance of love handles.”

So, that’s his intention—to make men feel more confident. But intentions do not always come to fruition. And what kind of confidence is based on illusion? Hmmm?

Finally, here’s an observation by writer Mike Yeager as he notes, “Whatever a man chooses as his favorite underwear style, from boxers to briefs, a man will feel more comfortable and confident if his underwear is comfortable and fits right.”

That may be the secret to confidence when it comes to the men’s underwear in which you chose to exhibit your body.

So, what do you think? What type of underwear gives you a boost? My choice is bikini briefs. They seem to fit my style, physique and comfort level.

I've tried some of the various enhancement styles, and I have to say, many of them make me feel anything but confident or comfortable--the sling support systems in many of them just aren't practical in my experience. Luckily, I don't need any butt-boosting type things, so I've never tried them, nor have I tried many of the slimming styles (though perhaps I should).

Certain brands--like Unico, for example--don't really have anything specifically designed to enhance one's package, but all of their products have that effect for me--the pouch shape is what does it there, most certainly.

I have recently tried the Shock Jock from Andrew Christian, and while it's somewhat ridiculous in how much enhancement it gives, it also does at least make me feel psychologically "sexier," even if it is "false advertising."
