Underwear Influencer – Thewestopher

Name

@TheWestopher (IG) or just Wes in real life 🙂

How did you discover your love of underwear, swim briefs, spandex and gear?

I’ve always liked dressing up – cosplay, Halloween costumes, stage plays, etc. My first boyfriend liked to buy me sexy underwear as gifts and it sorta stuck. It was later I discovered the leather community and my mind was blown. I’ve been totally hooked on gear ever since.

What are you favorite styles to wear?

Jocks! Mesh jocks, sports jocks, pretty much anything with the butt cut out. I like the peek a boo effect, but whatever I wear MUST have a pouch. Otherwise everything up front is crushed.

Why did you first start posting pics in underwear?

I used to be that kid who wore a shirt in the swimming pool. As I gained confidence and had a few photographers ask to shoot with me, I was proud to show off. I’m not a big bulky guy, and sometimes people still call me “too skinny” but I’m happy with my body now.

If you have a partner/husband/wife are the supportive of you sharing your love of underwear?

I’m dating someone, and he helped me pick out an incredibly sexy mesh thong for my next shoot. Provided I model it for him first, of course!

Do your friends know about your IG and love if undies?

Oh yes they’re extremely aware and also very supportive.

What have been some of the positive things that have happened since you started posting ? Did you have any negative experiences?

I’ve had some haters, but overall I’ve met some great people on social media. Sometimes they also become friends in real life – especially the cosplayers, when we meet up at conventions. I used to worry that I might come across as a total narcissist, but hopefully my humor comes through. I never try to be sexy, or even think I’m sexy, but I’m confident – which people find sexy.

No matter the body type there are always people who will criticize you that you’re too big, too small, too young, too old, how do you deal with those?

Oh I’ve heard I’m too thin and feminine my whole life. Somewhere along the way I embraced those things as part of myself rather than a negative. If being too skinny or too gay makes people react to me negatively, that’s their shit not mine. Like, who cares? They don’t put a roof over my head, food on my plate or clothes on my back, so they really don’t have any impact on my life. What’s great about social is that you can delete and block.

One thing I have discovered is guys into underwear tend to be awesome guys. Have you made any friends that you may not have met otherwise?

Oh hell yes! I’m into all body types, and love how undies look on different guys. So, I follow a lot of underwear enthusiasts and our mutual fetish makes us fast friends.
