I am having a super busy week coming off the Labor Day holiday and a bit of writer’s block. This next month marks 10 years of doing UNB. I feel like I’ve done it all on the site. I may feel that way but there’s always more to cover, it’s just the time to do write it all up! And, so many posts I have done can always be revisited and changed. Tonight was a bit different, I was looking through the reader survey and something struck me, as I said this survey helps us with content.

I was looking at the favorite colors. You guys chose the top four colors were Black, White, Blue and Red. Red isn’t necessarily a classic color. Black, blue (Navy), white and grey. But These results were not close, where it was separated by a small margin. It was pretty much a blow out for these four colors.

As I have said many times classic cuts and styles are not boring. I know we have guys who go for day glow pink and I say ROCK THAT PINK. But if you love the classic colors never be ashamed or shy away from what you like. There is no right or wrong in underwear, it’s all what you like. You have to wear it for 18 hours a day and wear what gives you confidence.

So why are these color so popular? I wish I had this super scientific or sociological insight but I don’t. I think part of is what you were raised on and second these colors go with everything. I subconsciously match my underwear, shirt or tie. It’s been a habit for so long it’s ingrained into who I am.

If you like these colors, share in the comments why you love them? Am I right or is it something completely different?

So, what type of models do you want to see on UNB? This has been a question going far back in the UNB Reader Survey. Unlike other posts, I am going to go into some details about this topic unlike the other posts.

50% of you guys want to see a mix of all the guys. The choices are Up and coming models, body positive guys, professional models and real/average guys. We are moving more towards the body positive side of the coin. It’s being accepted more and more in social media and by society.

When we first started our Shoots we had more “real guys” and less models. It would always annoy me that we got comments “he shouldn’t wear that.” Or “Ewwww he’s ugly and fat.” I mean these were guys with a 32 waist and around six feet, so they were no where near being “fat.”

Over the years we have stepped up our photography and models. We get hit for now having guys look like “professional models.”  We need more guys who look like real guys. Now I”m all for this but asking a guy to strip to his undies and put it out on the internet is not always an easy thing to find. We have had a “real guy” shoot planned for a while but it’s finding real guys in the south who will wear undies and have fun. If you are that kind of guy, let’s talk!

Also, one thing I want to do is give up and coming models a place to share their pics and learn more about them. We have profiled such great guys over the years. Some have gone on to do bigger things and others who took a different path. It’s always awesome to help people out when you can. So you will see a lot of profiles of guys just starting their journey on UNB.

One thing I want from you guys is support to post body positive images on UNB. When someone chimes in and say something negative, I want you guys to speak up and defend our decision. It takes a village for us to make this change and we need your support. We have some great readers who do this but we need a lot more of you to voice your support!

Does your partner support your love of underwear or do they see it as a waste of money? Do you buy things you know they will like to see or do you buy what you love to wear? When having a love of undies and a partner it can be a balancing act. While other partners can be enablers of your underwear habit.

For the most part, you guys have a partner who is supportive or isn’t into it as much as you are. This includes gay/bi/straight guys. Doing a survey that covers all is interesting. Some questions pertain to gay couples, while other straight ones. But we are learning as the years go by.

Very few of you guys have partners who don’t get it or they don’t know of your love. We have had guys over the years who have hidden their love from a partner who didn’t understand a love of underwear. And that that partner thought it was strange.  This to me, and this is my opinion, not the partner for you. Underwear is a small thing and if you can’t share that well… I won’t go there. 

My past relationships, with me being single now, my ex’es were supportive of my underwear, even though most didn’t get into it themselves. Granted on a few I have helped them discover undies and some wear better ones till this day, but none of them have been underwear converts. On the other hand, I have never dated a guy who loved undies as much as I do. I know they are out there but I have yet to run across one in my dating pool.

I’m curious how your wives/girlfriends, husbands/boyfriends react to your undies? Have they ever bought you undies? Do you wear things that they love? Do you have pairs they hate or style they hate?
