Guys With iPhones in Their Underwear – Double Shot
Saturday, September 12th, 2009More from GuysWithiPhones.com – this guy had the courtesy to take TWO shots! And although those Tommy briefs aren’t the most flattering for his figure – he certainly has something going on underneath there!
Guys With iPhones in their Underwear
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009So GuysWithiPhones.com can be a treat to look at – some of it is hot… some of it is tragic… and then there’s the tragically hot. My favorites (of course) are the pics of the guys in their underwear. And it’s giving me fodder for the blog and plenty of new pics to share with you!
We start with a guy in basic white briefs – of course. My only question – who was the lucky guy taking this pic? Unlike most of the pics on the site, he didn’t take one in the mirror… hmmmm.

Frat Boys Hangin with Beer and Briefs
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009Oh, the things straight boys will do when you give them a little beer – or bottles of grain alcohol (?) – and casually suggest they hang out in their tighty whities.
Economic depression leads to men wearing colored underwear?
Thursday, April 9th, 2009
According to Jockey, the economic downturn means an upturn in colors down below:
“It may seem as far fetched as fairies, but if research from men’s underwear brand Jockey is to be believed, sales of pink pants are soaring as men use their undergarments to cheer them up in the economic crisis. …Jockey claim that sales of their coloured Y-front briefs have rocketed by an average of 60 per cent over the last six months – and the baby pink pairs have sold more than any other, seeing a 62 per cent boost in sales over the past three months. Other colours that have seen a hike in sales are baby blue, orange, and a very fetching pistachio green. If claims that men are perking themselves up using their pants is true, it adds a new dimension to lipstick economics – the theory market -watchers attribute to sales of small cosmetic items rising in a recession, or the fact that hemlines rise and fall with the economic state of the country. According to Jockey, this sales spike mirrors a similar effect seen in America during the great depression of 1935.”

In Briefs Musical a Hit in South Africa
Wednesday, March 11th, 2009I got an email from one of the authors of “In Briefs” a musical making the rounds in South Africa. It seems like an interesting story, and I can DEFINITELY get into guys on stage in their underwear… A LOT. Check out the images below, and a review – and keep your fingers crossed the boys can bring this one to the U.S. or wherever it is you are!
CAPE TIMES – Wilhelm Snyman
September 17, 2007
A fun musical full of irony and insight.
In Briefs – A Queer Little Musical by Fred Abrahamse and Marcel Meyer.
Musical direction and arrangements by Charl-John Lingenfelder,
with David Chever, Stephen Jubber, Marcel Meyer, Riaan Norval and Jason Ralph.
At On Broadway.
Whenever Fred Abrahamse and Charl-Johan Lingenfelder team up, one must take note.
Slick, clever and polished shows are what one has come to expect from them, never to be disappointed. In Briefs continues in this tradition.
Reminiscent of a kind of Tales Of The City, but in a Cape Town context, In Briefs takes us through the urban tribulations of a group of gay guys trying to make sense of their world, their passions, disappointments and aspirations.
Marvellously tongue-in-cheek, Matthew (Jason Ralph) leads us on this journey, as the older man among a group of guys in various stages of frivolity, anxiety, self-centredness and self-discovery. Matthew’s boyfriend is Theo (Marcel Meyer), a rather fraught youngster who is finding out that commitment is an acquired skill, a skill hardly encouraged by the would-be “gay lifestyle”.
Matthew and Theo warm to a delectable Dominic (Stephen Jubber). He’s less innocent than his 19 years would suggest and who is not averse to a triangular relationship. Things get more complicated when we meet the hunky schoolteacher, James (Riaan Norval), who bewails his loneliness and longs for a Mr Right. Then we have the clothes designer, Mark (David Chevers), who yearns for the sophistication of all things Japanese. Through this web of attempted deceits and frustrations the lives of our protagonists interconnect, interspersed with some wonderfully saccharine songs and camp asides. Through the steam baths, clubs and telephone sex they try to stave off loneliness and seem to live by the maxim that “what he doesn’t know won’t hurt him”.
But as the musical progresses the characters undergo a transformation of sorts, become more mature and develop.
Conflicts are resolved as the dreams and ideas the characters have of themselves are confronted with a gradual and sobering realisation that they all have their limitations and that “party, party, party” doesn’t bring them any enduring happiness.
But far from being merely a maudlin exposé and a trip down victimhood lane, In Briefs is a fun musical with some depth and oodles of irony and insight. The “eye-candy” element, of course, and the music do a lot to propel the story out of its more prosaic moments.
The musical arrangements are such that none of the voices are strained at any stage and what is more, the cast includes some very gifted singers, especially Norval and Jubber. Jason Ralph’s role is particularly demanding as he has to perform his way through a range of states of mind, from betrayal, to anxiety, horniness to tranquillity, but his role functions as an essential anchor for the other performers and the show itself.
