No, they’re not worried about joggling your junk. It’s because you need something like an extra half inch in the seam on the side you dress on to leave a little extra room in your pants for your dick. Well-tailored pants are asymetrical. Not sure those of you who wear briefs need to worry about it.

RaoulDook ,

This seems like a good place for a joke about hanging dong. Podcasts about how the distinguished gentleman may properly hang dong in tailored slacks, let’s go with that

salvaria OP ,

I don’t have the equipment to know if this is true or not, but it seems smart to ask the person you’re fitting so that you don’t accidentally grope them

NotMaster ,

Its true. This is a common tailoring question for men. Nothing to do with being fondled and everything to do with the pants fit. If you are getting measured like this for expensive pants your going to get nudged a bit anyways when they do the inseam measure.

Anticorp ,

I’ve been measured for expensive suits and I’ve never been asked this question.

fmstrat ,

Most likely due to the for style of the suit, or the country of origin which can define that.

Anticorp ,

Yeah that makes sense. I don’t wear skinny pants, so there’s usually ample room in the crotch.

Taniwha420 ,

I think you’re telling me you’re a woman. I want to point out that seeing a tailor is a non-sexual experience. I’m not sure I’ve ever been to one, not even a female tailor, who HASN’T made incidental contact with my genitals when checking fit, particularly in-seam. It’s a far cry from being “groped”. It’s a bit like imagining a lingerie specialist worries about touching someone’s boobs, or that a doctor gets worried about seeing someone naked.

TammyTobacco ,

This is the right answer. It’s so if you’re wearing tightly tailored pants you have some dick space so you’re not imprinting and showing it off to everyone.

dogslayeggs ,

There’s a scene in a 90s comedy about that where the tailor asks which side he wears his pants on. The main character looked very confused until his friend explained it.

ShepherdPie ,

Pretty sure that was a Friend’s episode with Joey and Chandler.

dogslayeggs ,

The Friends episode was about how the tailor kept moving Joey’s penis around with his hand as he was taking measurements, and Ross let him know that wasn’t normal. I only know this because I went down a rabbit hole trying to find the movie I’m thinking of.

haelski ,

Was the movie Blazing Saddles?

confusedpuppy ,

This feels like satire? A site called real men, real style with an article about penises?

PenisWenisGenius ,

This also seems like the kind of thing an ai hallucinated up, but so does the wording in a lot of academic textbooks.

salvaria OP ,

You know, I recognized that too, but what I really needed was for someone to tell me what “how do you dress” meant ¯_(ツ)_/¯

FireTower ,
@FireTower@lemmy.world avatar

The site it self isn’t satire. They’ve got a YouTube channel w/ 3.5 million subs.

Magnetic penises??

salvaria OP ,

I figured the author was just padding the article with jokes, but I agree, that one was out of left field

Huh, i felt that it was more out of a magnetic field

Around here tailors say, “which way do you hang” (or they used to, it’s been a while) and it’s because extra room is required in tailored pants. Generally junk at rest prefers one side to the other.

BorisBoreUs ,
@BorisBoreUs@lemmy.world avatar

It was, “Which side do you dress to?” around here. Especially if i was a woman doing the measurements for the tailoring.

Let me translate this old joke from Coluche

It’s the story of a guy who is constantly living with migraines. He goes to the doctor for the tenth time and says “doctor I can’t take it anymore, these migraines are ruining my life!”, so the doctor prescribes him some medication and says “listen, these are the last resorts… If they don’t work, there’s really only one thing we can do, and it’s to chop off your dick!”, “chop off my dick?? I sure do hope these meds work!!”. The guy returns home and starts taking the meds. But months past and the migraines persist. He can’t take it anymore, so he goes back to the doctor and says “doctor, I’ve had it, I have no life, it will be better to live without a dick than not to live at all”, “very well, let’s get it done!”. And so the doctor chops off his dick! Months past and the guy’s migraines are completely gone. He’s so happy, he finally can live a somewhat normal life. After months of success, he tells himself “I think I should celebrate! Let get ourselves a nice suit!”. So he goes to the tailor, and the tailor asks him “sir, tell me, which way do you hang?”, obviously the guy replies “oh you know, it is of no importance what so ever…”, the tailor exclaims loudly “are you mad? It is of the upmost importance sir! If it hangs on the wrong side of the pants, you’ll end up getting constant migraines!!”

salvaria OP ,

Thanks for translating!

I’ve always heard the ending be something like:

Sir, you are a size 37

37? No, I’m a 36!

36!? Why if you wore size 36, your mangos would be so squished up you’d have constant migraines.

I don’t understand the chart in this article about body type vs. underwear style. It doesn’t relate to the question that it’s located directly under, and it makes no attempt to explain why, for example, thin men shouldn’t wear boxers.

I can’t tell if this article is AI generated or just rushed out by someone trying to meet a quota.

salvaria OP ,

I figured that a lot of it was just padding after answering the question of what “how do you dress” means

creditCrazy ,
@creditCrazy@lemmy.world avatar

I’m not even sure there were any men involved in writing this I typically have my thing pinned upward to avoid rug rash and boners turning my leg into a codpiece

TheTetrapod ,

Is this a joke? How do you “pin up” your dick?

ShepherdPie ,

A miniature clothes line running across your waist and some clothes pins. Obviously.

noodlejetski ,

NSFW, obviously.

Am I like the only man here that wears underwear I’ve never worn underwear that lets my cock hang like do you guys get underwear that it is like 2 times the size of your waist

Did people just forget about boners like when that thing gets hard it goes up and if it’s sheethed in a pant leg boy is that gonna hurt not to mention rug rash

agamemnonymous , (edited )
@agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works avatar

Presumably if you’re wearing tailored pants, you’re not in a situation that’s likely to result in 80s comedy style boner hijinks. And if you are, you have the foresight to take other wardrobe precautions.

delirious_owl ,
@delirious_owl@discuss.online avatar

Wut. You just let your boner stick out the top if your pants?

creditCrazy ,
@creditCrazy@lemmy.world avatar

No when ever a boner happens it just goes slightly to the side and even if it doesn’t there’s still a shirt to get past

GBU_28 ,

Huh? This isn’t about boners, it’s about your walking around dick. It has to go down a pant leg

Anticorp ,

Why doesn’t it get supported in your briefs?

Dasus ,
@Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

… hurt not to mention rug rash

… circumcised?

PhlubbaDubba ,

Why in god’s name would you choose to put it down a leg‽ That shit will give you the worst rug burn imagineable if you happen to take your pants off too fast or fall in a split or just sit down on your pants in a weird way where they pull against you if you try to shift in the wrong way.

delirious_owl ,
@delirious_owl@discuss.online avatar

Wut. You put yours up so that it pokes out the top?

PhlubbaDubba ,

Optimized for slapping it down on tables to assert dominance.

HR is too kind… to let you have a job.

Noodle07 ,

Let’s all be honest, slapping in on a table is funny as fuck

Boxer briefs keep it nice and snug. Also the number of times I’ve twisted a fucking nut sleeping in boxers or naked… Ugh. Never again.

How does one twist a but while sleeping. What does that even mean

SkyezOpen ,

Nut. Testicle.

GBU_28 ,

Why would you wear pants so tight that you need to choose?

GBU_28 ,

What? They aren’t tight

Dasus ,
@Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

Guess someone stole a part of your genitalia meant to protect a more sensitive part.

Who would’ve guessed that mutilating children’s genitals can be harmful? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

PhlubbaDubba ,

Chaffing doesn’t suddenly stop being chaffing because your sausage comes with a casing.

Dasus ,
@Dasus@lemmy.world avatar

Well my non-circumsized penis hangs out in my left pant leg and even without underwear, I’ve never had chaffing as an issue.

Have you? Have you even an uncircumsized dick? Because, how would you know if you don’t?

The only time that’s been even slightly an issue is when putting on pants without underwear just after sex, putting on jeans without underwear and while the foreskin was behind the glans and not on it. Which is when I’ll just grab my junk, roll the hood back down to cover most of the glans and then no chaffing.

And if you don’t put your dick in your leg, where else would you?

invisiblegorilla ,

But, have you ever caught it in the zip…?

Rivalarrival ,

Foreskin is a fair bit more resilient than frenulum.

MBM ,
