Oh, @Robster, you look marvelous!

Thank you! I totally forgot that I'd posted that pic here two years ago until you commented on it.

Some of the male models are quite attractive.

Fear not, for this cornucopia of fashion is still alive and kicking.

Ha ha, a bar buddy gave me one of those tuxedo shirts... Shirt on the cover shown here

Judge me as you will but, with no irony whatsoever, I loved that tuxedo shirt. They made it in pink and purple and black and maybe even red, but I stuck to the plain white. It was a standard in my wardrobe from about 1988-1995. (Bought a new one every year until they discontinued it.) I would probably buy that shirt today, were it still available...

I bought several items from International Male back in the day. They had some of the sexiest clothing out there for men at that time...

They had an International Male store on Santa Monica back in the day. Kind of like Andrew Christian does today. Love the great fashion back then too.

It looked great with my mullet, so no judgement here...

I loved that store, on my yearly visit to SoCal I always tried to find a way to stop thru there. Though I must admit I was a bit disappointed that none of the models were there in the store to help me personalized fittings.......

I confess: I have taken to perusing the Jockey catalog I keep getting

To paraphrase Val from A Chorus Line-

 

"Oh, yeah, let's get one thing straight. See, I never heard about International Male, I never saw International Male, I didn’t give a frick about International Male (this last might be overstating the case a bit:rolleyes:)"

 

However in college I worked in a bookstore (B. Dalton in case anyone is interested). There was a small paperback book on how to get great abs. On the cover of the book was a photo showing just the torso of a guy with great abs in a pool, swim suit on, lazing on a float. I LUSTED after that picture. I finally bought that book on the sly-I may have sold it to myself to keep anyone else from knowing I liked those abs. I then had the book for years. I had it well hidden among other books. I never really looked at the exercises. I just stared at the cover.

PS Ok to be totally honest I may have vaguely been aware of International Male-but I never had a figure or an endowment that would've been enhanced by fancy undies. I really didn't notice underwear until some escorts I hired filled out some cute pairs.

Oh, come on... If you're going to quote Val, it ain't as funny without the 'fuck'

 

And now I want to turn on AMC and see if The Red Shoes is on.

I had the same experience with an exercise magazine on sale at the bookstore in the lobby of the building I worked in. Fluff exercises but lots of shirtless furry guys demonstrating them (rare for an exercise magazine). Did I imagine the odd look that the clerk gave me when I bought it? Anyway, still have it, and still pull it out every once in a while even though I have much more explicit porn now.

I thought about it-and almost did. But isn't Daddy running a family friendly forum?

I remember trying on something in the changing room and hearing an effeminate voice nearby say "And I'm NOT an extra LARGE!!!"

Dude in the red leather pants reminds me of Tom Cruise.

Yeah, like Tom he's got a nice thick head of beautiful hair. Was always jealous of that. Unlike Tom he looks to be average in height though.
