This is a conversation between UNBTim and UndiesFool. We explore the topic of underwear and confidence. How the undies we choose give us an extra boost through the day.
UNBTIM
Long before I created UNB. I knew underwear gave me confidence. Certain days I would wear my favorite pair. Especially if it was a big day or some special occasion. Now that I run an underwear blog, underwear gives you confidence, is reinforced by readers every day. One reader in particular is UndiesFool. Someone who is a supporter of UNB and becoming a good friend.
What does “Underwear brings you confidence” mean to you?
UndiesFool:
Confidence is an important factor in our lives, especially self-confidence. If you’re overconfident, you can send the wrong message to to someone. Furthermore if you’re overconfident with nothing to back it up, you’re just an arrogant ass. On the other side of the spectrum, if you lack confidence people will doubt you as much as you doubt yourself setting you up for failure after failure. So how could this possibly related to underwear? Very easily in fact. We choose what pair of underwear we are going to wear based on how we feel, whether it be how we feel about ourselves or how we feel about the situation we’re about to be in such as work, gym, date night, etc. Most of us probably do this subconsciously without thinking we’re making our choices this way, but we totally do. So with that said, I consciously make my underwear choices based on not only what I’ll be doing and who will see me, but also how I feel about myself and about the situation, which in turn will boost my self-confidence if I make the correct choice.
Does my thinking that make sense to any of you?! I’m not confident it does. Maybe I have the wrong undies on! Haha! Just kidding.
Let me ask you Tim, in addition to the initial question you asked, do you have any situations where you felt underwear gave you confidence?
UNBTIM
I have the perfect example where undies gives me confidence. I currently am in a job search. We all know searching for a job sucks. It’s endless back and forth. Plus interviews. Which I think I have come to see them as an interview for both not just them interviewing me. I always wear something that makes me feel great. I have tried to wear Cocksox in the past but it’s a little too bulgetacular. I stick with some tried and true favorites. Plus something with a little fun factor. I refrain from wearing something new or different style than I normally wear. Those can majorly distract me. So, no thongs or boxer briefs. It’s more bikinis and briefs. Some that I love to wear are John Sievers, Andrew Christian, Big Boy Pants, Gregg Homme and a few more.
What about you? Any experiences where you were able to increase your confidence?
UndiesFool:
Absolutely! I’ve had several experiences where I’ve found undies have increased my confidence in a situation. There’s one story that always comes to mind. I once wore my red Intymen Sport thong to a board of directors meeting. I was the VP of the board and the President of the board could not make the meeting, so that meant I was now in charge and had to lead the meeting. It was an important meeting because we had to discuss the future of the organization and possible changes to its leadership as well as executive compensation. I was nervous as all hell, so to help calm my nerves and boost my self-confidence, I decided I should wear a pair of power undies in addition to my power tie. I picked out my red Intymen Sport thong because it matched my red tie and it was the only red thong I had at the time. I slipped them on under my suit and immediately felt empowered. I sat at the head of the boardroom table amongst my fellow board members which consisted of CEOs, CFOs, politicians, and some other seriously high powered people, and I felt confident in everything I said and a true sense of power. After the meeting was adjourned, a couple of the members came up to the head of the table to congratulate me for successfully guiding the board through some difficult and stressful decisions. As I sat there listening to their compliments, I couldn’t help but think to myself that little did they know it wasn’t the red power tie, but my red power thong that made me so confident that night!
Personally I’ve found the skimpier the undies, the bigger sense of empowerment and self-confidence. It seems counterintuitive that a skimpy g-string, thong, jockstrap or jockbrief would give you this feeling, but for me it does and that’s why you might catch me occasionally wearing a jockstrap under my suit to the office. It’s a fun secret and it gives you a sense of power over the people you’re with because you know something they don’t
What styles do you wear when you need to boost your confidence?
UNBTIM:
My favorite pairs are bikinis and briefs. It goes back to the first pairs I ever bought in underwear. I ditched the bad fitting tighty whities for form fitting bikinis. I remember how incredible I felt in them. It was like nothing I ever felt before. I got the support I craved and in some great fabrics and styles. Who knew that just a simple pair of cloth would make you feel so amazing. I had the “Where has this underwear been all my life?” When I wear something similar now it takes me back to those days.
A few pairs that I put on to boost the confidence are Cocksox CX01, Mundo Unico, Erogwear and Big Boys Pants. When I really want to boost the confidence I wear the CX01 from Cocksox. I feel invincible in these. The only down side is that it creates a bigger bulge than normal in my pants. This can be good or bad. I try to compensate and wear pants that don’t enhance the bulge. Some maybe going “Why are you doing that? Flaunt it.” Well some times it’s business setting where showing off is not really encouraged. If it’s something out for my private life I don’t mind showing off a little.
On the other hand there are pairs that I don’t wear on days I need confidence. I rarely wear boxer briefs, thongs, mesh and new pairs. I need to rely on the true and trusted pairs. On days where i need to be top of my game. It’s not the time to experiment with underwear. Because, there is nothing more distracting than wearing an annoying pair of underwear. Your focus is on the undies and not your day.
To wrap this up, what advice do you have for guys who need boost their confidence?
UndiesFool:
Be honest and true to yourself. You can’t be confident without knowing who you are and accepting yourself first. Stop worrying about what other people might think and wear what makes you feel good about yourself. When we are comfortable and feeling great about ourselves and our choices, we feel confident. For me, a skimpier pair like a thong or jockstrap usually gives me a boost to my self-confidence. For Tim, it’s a pair of bikini briefs that he’s worn over and over that has never let him down. For others, it may be a hot pair of boxer-briefs. The fact is that there’s no right choice in which style underwear to wear other than your choice! So I say go empower yourselves and pull up those sexy undies you want to wear and start feeling confident!
UNBTim:
I couldn’t have said it better! Thanks for taking the time to talk undies and confidence with me!
