I know we have several engaged FF guys on here, who are probably registered at various places for wedding gifts, and I can think of at least TWO of you who may have checked this item as a desired gift to wear to football games and tailgate parties:
Mantyhose: Are men really ready to wear tights?
Italian fashion house Emilio Cavallini has found that European men are ready and eager to don pantyhose. Will American dudes follow suit?

One particular FF poster tells me that cowboys in Oklahoma wear pantyhose out on the range. Sly, any Texas cowboys admit to pulling up some pantyhose on those cold winter Lone Star days?

Namath was a man ahead of his time. Seriously though, European men, yes. Normal American men, NO.

Mark it down....4 years, a small (2-10%) will wear them and you will notice it in media. We tend to follow 3-5 years behind Europe in everything else so I dont expect this to change now. Flamehunter will be the first on FF to own a pair. :wink:

Im sorry but the only time I would expect to see a NORMAL man wearing tights is if they are performing Shakespeare and even then only when the role requires it

Well, I am on spring break...just kidding, no hard cider for me. Just typing in the dark (that's my story, and I'm sticking to it). :oops:

According to the other thread - pot would be a good gift.

Don't knock it til ya try it.
Cheaper than long johns, much more flexible, and warmer too. Course, mine aren't Italian. Just cheap ol' Hanes from Walmart.
After all, "gentlemen prefer Hanes."

Figure, since you seem to be the expert on this topic, does Hanes make those in fish net? :shock:
