Is there a gay underwear shop in Bangkok?

Before anyone thinks I have recently 'come out', I should explain that I always try to buy my underwear at a shop that caters for gay men, because I find the style of underwear that is generally available for 'straight' men in the 'mainstream' shops to be boring, dated, ugly, 'square' and a whole load more of negative descriptive words.

When I flaunt my tackle, I do not like to do it in a pair of cheap Y fronts...... It's been like that for decades, long before I moved to live in Thailand.

I used to buy underwear from a shop at Tukcom, Pattaya, but I don't plan to be in that town, but will be in BKK next week. I'd like to stock up on some quality, stylish underwear.

Any suggestions for a shop in BKK?

Zen have a great selection and styles to suit everyone...

So that would be my first port of call.

Also in the Platinum Mall, on the ground floor there is a male only underwear stockist there, with some weird and wonderful pants......

Enjoy your shopping trip..

OP, I'm glad you have come out.

Now let's share experiences.

I only wear silk knickers, French style, as they give me that wonderful sensation rubbing on my skin.

Also, allows your partner to grab you easier, than with those male underwear.

Listen to me......you will not regret it.

Used to buy them from M&S, so try in BKK, if they still got them.

Mind you, about £50 a pair.

Perhaps off topic, but the old boxers vs. briefs argument has always amused me.

Now of course there are BOXER BRIEFS ... adding to the drama.

Supposedly a man is supposed to CHOOSE between one or the other and it says something about them that they wear boxers or they wear briefs.

My underwear drawer is filled with a MIX of underwear formats ... boxers, briefs, boxer briefs, some sexy, some unforgivably Fruit of the Loom heterosexual. What to wear that day? Hmm. Just grab something.

I know, I know, my toaster is in the mail.

Excellent, because I also need to go to Pantip Plaza which is just a few hundred metres away.

I will come up to BKK next week and report my success at both stores...

Just go to H&M and get some of the David Beckam's.

Do they have skid marks on them?

Sorry, Patsycat, couldn't resist that.

I see you're loitering in the gay forum again Costas. Is there something you need to tell us? whistling.gifbiggrin.png

I keep telling you and the other Gentleman, but you both keep rejecting me.

At least, I've got somebody that believes and supports me, Mr Bruce.

Thank you Robert........one day I will reciprocate.

Shucks thanks for that, but sorry , I am spoken for , and they don't call me "Old Faithful" for nothing.

But I did one have a Greek lover, but it was over in two seconds, Oh and Yes that too...

Have a nice day....

To report back, there are no photos because my trip wasn't really that successful...

I visited Pantip Plaza to purchase a high gain wi-fi router antenna, (which I purchased some years previously). I couldn't find the shop and I couldn't be bothered to put up with the touts shoving porn into my face.

So I went to Platinum Shopping Mall, which in my innocence I thought would be an upmarket shopping centre. In fact, it's a down-market place jam-packed with shopping stalls and about 1 million people. So I gave up on that also.

I finally found some nice (fake) underwear on a street stall in Sukhumvit. Nothing that exciting, but a nice style in cotton (can't stand man-made fabrics).

Zen is my underwear shopping place of choice. Everything from ultra-brief, buttless, jockstrap looking types to ordinary briefs and many brands that are gay owned and gay popular (at least in my experience). For just plain comfort reasons I prefer something slightly in between: briefs that aren't too brief, but something more stylish than tighty-whiteys. I usually find something I like a Zen and I have often been cruised by other shoppers... one stop shopping!

Overheard two straight expats at the gym:

Expat1: I need to buy some underwear today.

Expat2: Just don't buy 2xist or Calvin Klein.

Expat1: Why?

Expat2: Because that's what gays wear.

Expat1: I thought it was just: gays wear briefs and straight guys wear boxers.

Expat2: Have you been living under a rock? Seriously, it's way more complicated than that.

I laughed out loud and then I was the guy everyone stared at... oops.
