As a guy I like to wear a “speedo” style brief because it keeps everything in place without binding and carrying a lot of moisture.

While I like to wear a “speedo” style brief, I am also conscious that most men do not wear a “speedo” style brief even though Bikram himself wears a speedo brief. I have also read in yoga forums disgust for the men’s speedo brief because it shows too much information. I have read in this forum that clothing should cover your bits.

Although I have not seen another man practicing yoga in a “speedo” style brief in my sessions, I have not been told by any other practitioner or any instructor that I have been dressed inapproprately.

I do not wish to offend. I realize that my “speedo” style brief shows a bulge and somewhat of an outline but it does cover everything in every pose. I liken my wear to form fitting clothing often worn by women which shows their bulges and sometimes outlines their intimate shapes. Is there a double standard? Do we have an aversion to the male form?
