VESTIGIAL POCKET

I was talking to Prada the other day about tighty whities. * He said no man before pissing bothers to thread his dick through that byzantine pocket hole thing in the front of briefs and boxer briefs. He insisted all men simply stretch the underwear elastic below the necessary boy parts before going to the bathroom. From what I have seen of men pissing, I guess I would have to agree.

Naturally, I asked him why underwear designers put that complicated business into the garment in the first place. I mean it must be a hassle to sew the pocket, right? He answered before I could even complete the question. Because if men's underwear didn't have that pocket it would look too much like women's underwear. And that would be completely unacceptable.

And so there you go.
