| Sexy Lingerie; Intimate Apparel.... Do Men Expect It? Does It Really Matter? Posted: 4/17/2007 1:48:30 PM | Sexy apparel is a chic thing. Can you imagine any straight guy designing that stuff? Women wear it because it makes them feel sexy. They aren’t doing it for the guy. I could give a fart what you’re wearing. You can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear -and a hot woman would look hot in a paper bag. It’s the way you ACT that starts my engines.
And really, I have had a lot of women, ok a few women, dress up in lingerie THEY thought was sexy and it so WASN’T. If you’re doing it for him, find out what he likes before you start buying lacy thingamajigs from the Pink Store. | |

Only one time did I get told it was appreciated. All the other times, I was told I was treating them like a cheap sex object. So I stopped trying to buy it and got yelled at for that too. Sometimes even when you win you lose. So except for the ex GF who appreciated it, I stopped buying, wishing, wanting and asking.
The ex GF did end up with a nice collection tho...'bout the cheapest I would ever go was Victoria's Secret. Also as far as bras go, just like shoes, you get what you pay for. There is no such thing as a comfortable inexpensive bra from what I've been told.
It goes both ways, if she dresses sexy, I'll do my part and sport my Sponge Bob boxers! | |

| Sexy Lingerie; Intimate Apparel.... Do Men Expect It? Does It Really Matter? Posted: 4/17/2007 4:32:11 PM | Wow....... a lot of interesting responses..... pro and con I guess its part of what makes everyone different........ I really liked what whitestarmama and onesimpleneed had to say on the subject.....
And was horrified by algy ( did you actually tell your female friends that you thought they looked bad in what ever they were wearing or NO? gosh I hope you kept those opinions to yourself for sure) If you liked a woman enough to date her, how can anything she wears for you be gastly????
Well you all can tell I am all for sexy lingerie, wish more men liked or longed for it. Sometimes they even say they do, but dont really care one way or the other. I work in such a male orientated environment (no dresses even) that lingerie isnt just sexy, but a way to feel girly........ And I like to wear it even when I dont have someone special in my life. One could only dream that someday there would be someone come home and truly be appreciative. lol But till then .......... I'll continue to do it for me. D | |

Asking me ?'s about what I liked etc. then we go away and she shows up, stocked with evry type of outfit/lingerie I had even mentioned in passing. Needless to say, we didn't surf, swim or do much else outside the room. It was so thoughful and sinful at the same time. | |

Posted: 4/17/2007 7:20:43 PM | See the whole thing is I'm a sick one...I thought Helen Hunt in Mad about you was hot walking around the apartment in sweats looking "frumpy". I'd do it again if a S.O. wanted me to but after getting my head taken off for it, not without them telling me. Now, having said that...one thing I never want to see come back for anybody, and I mean anyone, great body or not...please lord...
No spandex anything, no leg warmers...let's all agree to keep flashdance in the past where it belongs and I promise never to wear any of the "sock" ties I still have...agreed? Okay then, but I'm not throwing them out...just in case...gonna keep 'em as a deterrent! | |

Seriously though, just the act of "Dressing up" is flattery way above and beyond!! I've tried to buy that kinda stuff for my first wife before, how awkward "what size is she" Um kinda like that girl there but more up here and less down there and....oh hell I dunno (Dumb a***!!)

Posted: 4/18/2007 8:13:34 AM | You're right OP..sexy lingerie does put a smile on faces..we,in turn,feel sexy... so it's a win win situation.Maybe there's a certain level of expectation for a woman who some times dresses in this way for her man,to always do so.I would'nt want to change my style of dressing though,so no big granny pants for me.I was born to wear these items,as all sexy women are.You just don't turn sexy..and it can't be manufactured...it just comes naturally.

Posted: 4/19/2007 5:44:38 AM | Most men I know, myself included, absolutely love lingerie so please don't give up wearing it just because someone missed showing you the excitement in it. A lot of times I think we are too enthralled to actually say anything. Personally for as articulate as I can be I have been stupefied when a girl walks out with fishnet stockings and whatever else. The last thing on my mind is telling her how she looks it's more so OMG I am drooling! | |

Because they make you feel special, they do the little things that the general population misses. They see things in you that you may not of in yourself.
And personally, I feel sexy as hell in some lingerie with thigh highs on. True story. We were in wal-mart last week looking for something when we passed by the lingerie section. I said hold on baby, lets see what wally world has to offer. In a nut shell, i asked him to pick what HE wanted to see me in. We ended up getting an entire little sexy outfit and the garters. When we got home I did my sexy run way model thing and he took pictures.
How did it make him feel? Like a man that was wanted and appreciated.
How did it make me feel? Like a sexy ass woman with this very excited man dying to get inside of me.
I think men expect it the same way we expect them to kill the spider or change the oil. We have such pre-defined rolls as men and women that sometimes living outside that box is hard. | |

Men don't expect it, but they love it! It's like some women and romance - they don't expect it, but they love it!
It only makes sense to find out what your man likes and vice versa because you want to pleasure them both in and out of the bedroom. Sometimes you will be stepping out of your comfort zone and spending money you wouldn't normally spend, but ultimately you are showing them how much you want to excite and stimulate them! | |

Posted: 4/20/2007 3:58:36 PM | | most guys seem to want me out of anything sexy i may be wearing...seems they favour the feel of skin over silk and lace. some guys see it as packaging to unwrap like a kid on christmas, some guys really don't care, and others are overwhelmingly turned on by it. if i wear something sexy, i do it for me, if it gets positive results for him, well then that's a bonus ; ) | |

Posted: 4/20/2007 9:29:15 PM | Actually, one of the most enjoyable 'one-two-three-play' experiences that I've had was going on-line and phone w/a woman to explore and critique what's 'out there' for lingerie that we both agreed to be sexy. Not that we bought any ...or that I wasn't just as 'turned on' by seeing her in flannel jammies and reading glasses, but it was fun and quite educational.
Ultimately, it's the woman beneath her 'gift-wrapping' who can possibly put on a show before and during foreplay ...besides have a few more pleasant surprises in mind who'll be on mine afterwards. Not to change the subject, but do women get turned on by other than Omar making a tent out of a man's boxer shorts? | |
