Mantyhose: A must-have for men (HT: Mark Steyn)

MELBOURNE: Men have invaded ladies' fashion domain a little further, for after 'man-bras' and 'manscara' the latest must have for men is "mantyhose."

"Mantyhose"or pantyhose for men have become a popular sheer garment from truck drivers to cowboys.

A self confessed male hosiery-wearer, Harisnya is so passionate about the issue he set up e-MANcipate, a website which he says aims to "accelerate the acceptance of male pantyhose as a regular clothing item".

The website offers men a step-by-step guide on how to wear pantyhose without damaging it. Harisnya declares that the website, based in the United Kingdom, is "as serious as fashion can be". He is adamant that both males and females should be allowed to wear the sexy sheer garment.

#15  ROFLMAO, Woozle!

I'm so used to ignoring all ads on all websites I didn't even notice it until you mentioned it.

I think it has something to do with Google (or whomever) ad placements where their computer thinks the website has something that would attract people intested in a particular product. Little do they know.... :-D

Hopefully Fred gets a few pennies.

#12  Do not forget there was a strong homoerotic subtext to the first two mad max movies.

You're a professional, rjschwarz, so I'll believe you, but I never noticed. On the other hand, I wouldn't be the target audience for such things, would I?

A suggestion to all those mantyhose-wearing gentlemen: please shave your legs regularly or get them waxed. Leg hair sticking through the nylon is icky.

#9  May be worn by certain sheep hearders on a certain mountain in the west but not any real cowboys.

It might just be me, but somebody appears to be fulla shit here. And I think it's our friend Harisnya.

#6  Robin Hood, men in tights...

Even if a majority of people do it doesn't mean it's not totally gay.

Do not forget there was a strong homoerotic subtext to the first two mad max movies.
