American Wussification Of Men Continuing European Style

For the few men that might wear these panty hose garments for working comfort and such I can live with, but for fashion or any other reason this is more of the feminizing and emasculation of American men, "Euro-peeon" style as I call it.

Being pushed by none other than the liberal home base of cable television, Obama central, MSNBsleaze and the Today show.

‘Mantyhose’: Not your mom’s pantyhose -

Fashion & Beauty - MSNBC.com: "For more than a decade, Mack wore women's pantyhose under his clothes to keep him warm while he worked as a landscaper. But four years ago, Mack, 35, discovered 'mantyhose' —pantyhose for men.

'It's nice because they are specifically made for men, so I felt less weird about it,' said Mack, who declined to give his last name (because his wife does still feel weird about it). 'They are tougher, less delicate than women's pantyhose, but not as bulky as long underwear.'

He says that he enjoys the fit and feel of the 'mantyhose' so much that he wears them year-round, even though he now holds an office job."Mack is one of a growing number of men — from construction workers to athletes and businessmen — who've found a passion for pantyhose, claiming they wear the hosiery for support, comfort and aesthetic purposes. Luckily, there are now pairs made specifically for men so that they don't have to ravage their wives’ or girlfriends’ dressers to nestle into a pair of nylons.

Coming to America
European men have been sporting hose for several years, but the trend has been slow to catch on in the U.S. (It is important to note that the trend has no connection to men who wear hose to cross-dress, since they prefer to wear pairs that are more feminine.) The "mantyhose" is also part of a larger trend of untraditional men's underwear designed to lift, sculpt and suck in that beer belly — from the "mirdle" (man-girdle) to Australian designer Equmen's Core Precision Undershirt, touted as the "Spanx for men." The U.K.-based Web site e-mancipate.net was even set up by a small group of male pantyhose enthusiasts from America, Canada and Europe for men all over the world "to speed up the mainstreaming process of male pantyhose." continued

Instead of hiding the beer bellies with women's undergarments how bout losing it the old fashioned man way, exercise.?

So what's next, the Seinfeld Manzierre, or Bro as Kramer called it?
