Polite Underwear

Sometimes I think that Thai men are much more secure in their masculinity than American men. I've seen many Thai men wear head bands (the kind that 12-year old girls wear in the states) with a confidence that surprises me. So last Sunday, as I walked through an outdoor market, I shouldn't have been surprised when my eyes fell on a brand of men's underwear that had a very unmanly ring to it. The brand name was "polite underwear."

Since when did underwear become polite?
