Rethinking colored underwear differentiation?

Posted under Tags

We all know that we have colored panties tags and how they're used, but when I tried to find the male equivalent of such tags, it was a mess since men have quite a few different underwear tags... I don't think it's a good idea to have color tags for each of boxers, briefs, bikini briefs and jockstrap. That sounds really messy and it would just end up with unpopulated tags to be honest..

Is there a way to tag the colors of male underwear without making a mess? Is it necessary to have color tags for underwear in general?

We briefly discussed this on the official discord but I felt like it deserved a proper thread. We have arrived at two suggestions. I'm still unsure if either of these sound good but here they are:

  • We make a male specific underwear color tags for all of male underwear, something like: Orange male underwear etc which can be used for all 4 types.
  • We make gender neutral underwear color tags like: Orange underwear.

Idea 2 would require using the male focus tag to differentiate between the genders, but since that tag is unfortunately often missed, it doesn't seem like a practical solution.
All in all, idea one sounds better to me, but I would like to discuss if we have any other options to fix this.

What the other two said, since "underwear" might mean bra too and we definitely don't want to mix bra and panty color.

There's also the term 'underpants' which is used for lower underwear in general.

Option 2 is a non-starter. Panties are the holy grail of this site.

Otherwise, I'm kind of meh to not caring about male underwear, so do whatever works best while keeping it in that lane.

Yeah same here about panties. I also think that having them be seperate is the better idea.
I have started making the tags (white male underwear etc), and I will get to gardening older posts when I get the chance.
