Please don't click on the link if you are offended by glimpses of male genitalia.. I don't want to offend anyone. If my post isn't appropriate then someone please delete it .

In a Paris fashion show this week clothing that had peep holes to expose genitalia.. WHY?? do we really want to see men in all their glory like this?

Someone please tell me why!

Well, they are models Galen. Perhaps they have to be skinny all over?

It's an odd thing petallus but I don't think there's anything attractive at all about male genitalia. I like what it does - but I don't want to sit and look at pictures! Nice eyes, nice smile, nice shoulders and (very important) nice voice all do it for me I don't need the details. And bits poking out of holes in clothes is just hilarious.

An interesting point deeda, and as a male I agree with you. Do you think the female equivalent is, in itself, aesthetically pleasing? Or are we in the area of beauty by association, i.e. that function confers attraction?

Fashion industry! - I have never known what it was for. Who wears any of their stuff. I always laugh at the Sunday paper magazines with ridiculous clothes that no-one ever wears.

As for these "garments" they are clearly unwearable as they would get arrested - what is the point?

Male genitalia are truly comic! - hence all the jokes about them.Tuck them away somewhere nice and warm and just get them out when needed!

I'm not going to click on the link but I was a bit put out by an old fellow in a bus shelter I walked past this evening. Now I realise he was just bang up to date with the latest fashion.
