Of course *all* Men do not like Pantyhose, but after 30 years of studying this subject I have found that most Men do rather than not.
Many Men will not, if ever, admit to liking Pantyhose (on a Woman). They will even say the oppositte. I am a little embarrassed to say that I have done the same, "Oh I heard she's not wearing Pantyhose, yeah!" (Guys joking about easy access).
The reason, I have found, that it is so difficult for Men to admit to liking sheer Pantyhose on Women is that as Pantyhose are not 'mainstream' anymore it can be considered, if sexual, a fetish item only. (Fetish meaning- you can not 'perform' with out it!) So admitting to liking this among their surrounding population would be, maybe, giving something private away. Thus being labled as 'different' or weird.
Silky Pantyhose are made to look very alluring and to feel very sensual. Of course we Men adore them on Women! There are many cheap brands that have assisted greatly in helping the hosiery companies 'shoot themselves in the foot' which feel slightly scratchy or do not fit well. This is usually when you hear people complain.
Another time is if someone of rather extreme SIZE is trying to wear a size too small. Or if a 'guy' is interested in fooling around with a girl, only to 'do his thing' as soon as possible, without any thought of sensual textures, caressing, petting, foreplay, etc...
- Side note: Try purchasing the more expensive pairs. They are more expensive for a good reason. The much greater weaving techniques, the materiels being used (great nylon vs. cheap nylon), the amount of *LYCRA*, etc...
A lot also comes from upbringing, certain experiences that happened in life or when growing up as a kid. Television shows/ Fantasies/ ... there are many things to be factored in.
-So do all Men like Pantyhose? No. But most of us do and so many of us have great trouble admitting it.
Yes, they make legs look flawless. Pantyhose are sexy and a turn on. Wear them if you got em.
Bare legs are the pits.. I don't even give a lady a second look if she does not have sheer hose on. Pantyhose are make up for the legs, and are just plain sexy.
I have seen that more women have starting to wear hose again.
My wife wears pantyhose 24/7/365 for me, as she know what a turn on it is for me to see her, and other females in hose.
At my job we have a lot of woman from Russia, and the majority of them wear pantyhose everyday. And they love to get dressed to the nines.. WOW !!!
Ladies, all I can say is if you want to look your best wearing sheer hose is the way to go. If you take time to put make up on in the morning, and touch it up all day, why not take 5 minutes to put on pantyhose to finish off the look.
First, just wanted to say that it takes only about 30 seconds to put on pantyhose, not 5 minutes. In Eastern Europe pantyhose is still mainstream for women, and a tradition.
Answer
In Poland, and probably Eastern Europe, pantyhose still in 2009 are the main stream just like they used to be in USA in the 1970's. It's only in USA that they are not anymore. Eastern European women, almost all of them wear pantyhose, do their hair, and look their best at all times, not just when they hit the clubs or go to church. Average Polish woman wears pantyhose, probably seven days a week, and probably Czech, Slovakian, Ukrainian, are somewhat similar. They wear them not only to the office or their job at the bank, but everywhere, around the house, to take out the garbage, when they work in the garden, do the laundry, go shopping, or wherever you see them they are always wearing them. If you go shopping all sales women behind the counter in all stores wear pantyhose, and you see pantyhose everywhere you go. This is this place where in the summer women will wear their suntan reinforced toe pantyhose with open toed sandals, and it is considered normal. In Eastern Europe pantyhose for women is a tradition, and that is not going to change. Women are taught from the time they are girls that pantyhose is something that girls wear. Simple as that. If you are a Polish girl, your sisters wear them, your cousins wear them, all your friends wear them, and you do too. If you live in Eastern Europe, unlike in the states, nylon feet or nylon covered legs with shorts or a skirt, for example is not something that you would not see for a month. As long as there are any women around you you will anytime. Being born in Eastern Europe, and raised in USA, it's something that was missing for me. In USA women didn't dress like women. They don't wear dresses, don't wear pantyhose, dress too sporty and look too bland. They only look hot if they hit the night club. That is not hot. Women should look good at all times. But, I am back in Europe, and have to admit that my interest for women got a lot stronger when I saw women wearing hosiery and looked their best, everywhere I went, instead of just occasionally by chance like in USA. It's so sad for USA. And too bad for American men who don't know that it's only in USA that women don't wear hosiery anymore unless to the office or just the bank. I love women in pantyhose, in suntan color especially, probably because it's the most popular and traditional, and also love women who wear wooden clogs or wooden sandals, which in Eastern Europe are also popular. Maybe I like all this so much because women in my country, they all do it, and maybe it's something I internally need and it's a tradition for me to need women to do this, while it's a tradition for them to do that. If women don't wear pantyhose or some wooden sandals, and will not overly smell good with perfume and make their hair like a doll's, and will not put on some stunning leather mini skirt or some sexy outfit, or annoyingly text their friends with their cell phone, I just will not take interest in them that much, or if at all. Bland looking women are just not interesting. I like women to look sexy at all times. It is a lot more fun. In Poland, for example, you will never have to tell a girl or a woman to wear pantyhose, you will find them with them already on. Polish women for me are the best.
No... not all like pantyhose. But some do. There's such a thing as a "stocking fetish" and it's been around since... well, hosiery first existed. I think that really was the intention behind the invention. They do make legs look like the epitome of perfection. And they keep their shape. I hear women going on about how inconvenient they are: "They exist to make women look good and feel uncomfortable--like everything men want women doing." Some guys have the fetish. And yes, they are fashionable. And dirt-cheap. But... I kind of do. Does that help?
