Package Size

During my last underwear shopping trip the other day, I was on the phone with my friend while I pa-roused the shelves and displays of CKs. While I was shopping, my friend was trying to be the little angel on my shoulder telling me "you don't need anymore underwear you have so many!" and when I did a bad job at trying to convince her and myself that I was only there to look (it was a 40% off sale, as if I was just looking), she then became the advice on which pairs I should get; despite her not being able to see what I was looking at. She overhear when a store clerk came and asked if I would like to see stuff they had in the back and then asked "what size?" - I told her. (I'm a medium incase anyone wants to send me any for my birthday in August lol). Then my friend aked me "imagine guys had to shop for underwear not only by their waist size, but there were two measurements; the waist size and you package size!" Kinda like jeans how I'm a 32 32; underwear I'd be a med med I guess? Hahaha. Wonder how many guys would lie when buying underwear if a sales clerk asked them their size? I guess it's also not THAT CRAZY since women's bras have two measurements of the number and the letter: And I mean really....all they're looking for is good support and to appear more endowed.

This video clip talks about the WonderJock by Aussiebum which is the male equivalent to a WonderBra.

The Underwear It Counts


I was talking this morning to my friend Emilie about how I should've started a blog exclusively about underwear and called it "Underwear It Counts". I love underwear; especially Calvins! Today was a 40% sale at CK and I went (against the advice of Emilie) and I said that I would "only look". I now have so many pairs of underwear that I pretty much need a drawer just for underwear. I also have pairs that I still haven't worn yet; kinda like saving them for a special occasion or rainy day. When I got into the CK store in the mall, a male model wearing underwear and a t shirt gave me a coupon for 10% off next time I'm in the store. I wasn't really focusing on what he said so I had to read the coupon after to know what he had handed me. Hahaha. My friend Lacey called my cell and I talked to her (she was not impressed I was at the store). I told the sales people who approached me that I was only there to look and a lot of people would be unimpressed if I bought anything. Needless to say....I caved! I bought two pairs! I had 4 in my hand at one point, so 2 pairs is an accomplishment in itself! The sales people were even bringing me pairs from the back to look at. After leaving the store (and the underwear model) behind, I went into Lululemon to check out their underwear cause a friend told me they're amazing. He even had the audacity to say they're better than Calvins!! *gasp!* Haha. I looked at them, and quickly realized....I had to leave the mall now! So I put the underwear down and hurried to the bus stop and bussed home.
