Men Caught Wearing Lingerie In Public

Updated on October 14, 2009

A publicly acceptable man in lace...

Lots of men love the idea of being seen in their lingerie. Specifically, they love the idea of being caught in lingerie when they weren't expecting to be caught. Is there anything wrong with this? Well, as with most things in life, yes and no. It largely depends on how and where the catching happens and what the intent of the man concerned was to begin with.

On the one hand, being seen to be wearing lingerie in public helps the idea that men do wear lingerie spread a little. On the other hand, in most areas of common society, people don't want to see the lingerie of men or women on display. There's a fine line between a little bit of lace and creeping out the surrounding area, and I think most sensible men know where that line is.

If you're a man who wears lingerie and you happened to put on a pair of high waisted panties that day and you're bending over to lift a heavy box for a damsel in distress and a little bit of your lace waistband shows, no harm, no foul.

If, on the other hand, you put on a lacy pink bra that morning and teamed it up with a tight white see through t-shirt, then don't make the mistake of thinking the derision you are greeted with is entirely connected to the fact that you're wearing lingerie, its more likely connected to the fact that you're being blatantly sexual in public, which is something people tend to frown upon, unless you're Megan Fox. Yes, it's a double standard, but even hot women perceived as being too overly sexual experience negative consequences at times as well.

As with all things, being seen to be wearing lingerie in public has a time and a place. If you are going to be in a mostly adult venue, such as a bar, then the rules can be relaxed a bit. Of course, you run the risk of drunk jocks taking a swing, but no solution is perfect. If you go running about in a public park with your bra hanging out, you can expect negative reactions and consequences.

See, what we all know is that some men accidentally get caught in lingerie, and others get off on being caught in lingerie. If you're in the second camp and you essentially non consensually rope the general public into your torrid little fantasy, then that's not okay. People don't like to be used that way, especially by strangers and that's what you're doing, using other people without their prior knowledge and consent to give yourself a rush.

Show consideration to those around you, and you will receive consideration from them in kind.
