Wonderpants - The Man's Equivalent of a Wonderbra
The Sun ^ | 27 August 2002

Posted on 08/27/2002 8:18:41 AM PDT by JediGirl

WOMEN have declared Marks & Spencer’s new bulge-enhancing wonderpants for men a truly swell idea.

Yesterday we told how the company had developed the upfront undies, called Urban Survivor, to do for men’s tackle what the Wonderbra has done for women’s boobs.

To find out what effect the £8 not-so-smalls would have on the ladies, we sent model Jeremy Frisbee out on a “package” tour of London’s streets.

With him was pal Edward Cutcliffe, 22, who was wearing his normal no-support Calvin Kleins.

Box of tricks ... girls in bar get an eyeful

Without the benefit of the “pulling pants”, poor Edward was ignored by the girls, who only had eyes for Jeremy.

Receptionist Michelle Peak, 24, of Beckenham, Kent, said: “The pants are great. I am shocked that they can do that for a man.

“I couldn’t take my eyes off his bulge. Who says size doesn’t matter?.”

Giant sighs ... Jez and Cathy Cook

Credit controller Tasmin Nother, 26, from Enfield, Middlesex, said: “I wouldn’t like my man wearing them if he was going to get all this attention.

“But they are great for a guy who has a maggot rather than a snake.”

But supervisor Michele Faires, 24, said: “I’m not bothered about size. It’s what you do with it. My boyfriend would be too embarrassed to wear these.”

Grandmother Cathy Cook, from St Katherine’s Dock, East London, said: “I don’t know where to look. I am shocked that good old Marks & Sparks have come up with this. I’m not too sure if I could get my two sons to wear them.”

PA Anna Hazel, 33, from Camberwell, south London, said: “What a whopper! My hubby is just fine down there but it’s a great thing for men to be able to buy from the high street.”

Marina Chrysanthou, 29, an accounts assistant from Camberley, Surrey, said: “For years women have been able to buy push-up bras and tummy controller underwear so it’s about time men had something to help them in that region.”

Marks & Spencer yesterday bought 1,000 copies of The Sun

featuring their undies. They will be given to menswear departments to help them cope with the rush of customers when the smalls go on sale nationwide next month.

Here's an even better way to enhance:

Are you

you have the safety on? You could become an "instant liberal".

I can't sleep with all this racket.

What's this about LadyX's inspection being "too personal?"

Thats pretty funny pappy, and that reminds me of a joke, ...
This one particular guy was down and out about having no luck with the ladies. He asked a friend of his what he could do to enhance his prospects for love. Well this friend of his, who had been rather successful with the ladies gave him a suggestion. "Here" , he says,"Take this potato and stuff it in your swimsuit and when you go the beach the women will be all over you!"
So this guy decides he would give iit a try. He stuffs the potato in his Speedos and heads out to the beach. Immediately women are running Away from him. No matter what girls he would approach, the reaction was the same , they would run away screaming in terror. Rather dismayed he headed back to his car when he ran into the same friend.
He said, " I did what you told me to do with the potato, and it didn't help me at all! "In fact it was even worse than before!"
His friend looked at him and said,"You Idiot!, the potato goes in the front of your shorts!"

That is nasty.......whats next, wet panties for women, then we can all walk around looking like we are in heat.

They have something like this already! It's permanent 'perky nipples' that you wear under your clothing. They've even gone so far as to do studies where the women's attractiveness is rated by men. The nipples made a huge difference in the scores.

Like bras, pants eventualy come off. Only then do you realize that you have been advertising to the wrong market.

The designers claim that it's entirely safe (it's aimed away from your 'equipment' supposedly), but you're right--I'm not sure I'd even feel comfortable with just the safety on. If I had that thing on, I don't think I'd chamber a round.

Am I the only guy on the planet who doesn't find that attractive?

Don't need 'em.

They won't sell well among Italians, either. They'd be kind of redundant.

Why is it not funny for girls to stuff tissues in their bras, and wear high heels to project their butt?

What goes around cums around! The cod piece is nothing new.

(P) pending. "The KISS Tongue Piece(R)." When you open your mouth the faux tongue would extend al la Gene Simmons. With a practiced grin you too can impress the women. ..and you don't have to stay at a Quality Inn.

Think we can get Billy Mays to hawk this "dent pusher" Wokka! Wokka!

Yeah there's nothing better than a nice set of headlights on bright to get your attention.
