Why do they call mens under shirts wife beaters?

HOBOKEN--The American Spousal Abuse Society (A.S.A.S.) reversed over 30 years of tradition today, by naming the mesh half-shirt as the "Official Wife-Beater Shirt" of the next century. This news came as a shock to both Hanes Inc. and Fruit of the Loom Industries, whose white, sleeveless cotton T-shirt has held down the honorary position since 1968. \n\n...."wife-beater" shirt, typified by its cut off sleeves, plunging neckline and easily shrinkable fabric that accentuates the wearerís tiny muscles. It officially became known as the "wife-beater" in 1968 when Ike Turner was signed on as a celebrity spokesperson for the line.

You know how on a hot day your balls stick to your leg if you wear boxers?  Well, the same goes for some women's thighs.  They kindof stick together and make walking akward.  If they don't have that problem it's probably because it's more professional or something like that.

It's funny that most men think we're dressing for them...really we're dressing to impress other women. We care what other women are wearing because they're our standards to judge how good we look.

we have a lot of men here in Holland trying to act all gangsta like. (whatever the term is) I'm used to seeing European men dressed clean cut and neat.  And here we have men dressing in baggie clothes with bandannas on their heads. sigh.\nAnd furry boots.  Why? I haven't a clue.  But women are wearing boots covered in fur.  Some even have a furry ball dangling on the side.  i personally think they are hidious but that seems to be the fashion.

I think men who wear pink--just like women who wear pink--generally do so because they like the color, and/or think that they look good in it. Men have, for quite awhile, not had a very good variety of options in terms of clothing styles, patterns, and colors, so perhaps they are simply taking advantage of a somewhat greater range of fashion choices now avaliable to them.

It's a longstanding pattern of sexism in assigning labels.\n\nBachelor vs. Old Maid or Spinster\nMan about Town vs. Loose Woman\nGigolo vs. Ho\nPlayer or Stud vs. Easy, Sl*ut or Skank\n\n\nIT'S REVOLTING.  People should think about what they say, and the messages it sends to the people around them - especially their sisters, little brothers, girlfriends, wives, nieces, daughters, sons, etc.  when they hear you use these kinds of sexist terms.\n\nAnd why are Men referred to as 'Guys' while women are very often called 'Girls'  by men (as if we're still children)?  It's insidious sexism.

This term has become very popular in gyms up and down the east coast.  "Brush Puppies" refers to a man's hairy chest, hence the "brush" part.  And we are all familiar with the use of "puppies" as slang for a chest.  So, in a gym a man might be heard saying, check these "guns" meaning his pumped arms, and now, check out these "brush puppies" meaning his pumped chest.    \nApparently, clean-shaven chests are out. Now it's all about having as much hair as possible.

Just because they do. A wife should be the main woman in any man's life.  If you are a mature adult male you should not need mommy to tie your shoes, do it your damn self!  A mother always wants to feel needed. I'll tell you what I am learning NOT to do with my boys' wives when they get married. Put your wife's concerns at the top of the list and you will keep yourself out of the DOG HOUSE guaranteed!!!

It's a combination of female hormone (estrogen) and the extra-special care that women take, in regards to their skin. You don't see (at least *I* haven't) men washing their bodies with loofahs, pumice stones and using a moisturizing soap ... followed by a good moisturizing lotion. We like to feel good for our men.  *sigh* ... the things we do to keep our man happy ...  :)

Thank you very much for informing me.  I honestly did not have a clu as to why Indians wore them.  I assumed it meant that you were married, but you have given me knowledge into a deeper aspect of it.  I will respect it more now, when I see someone with that.  I appreciate your elaboration and information provided.  I think people ask a lot because they honestly don't know why.  Especially if they are not Indian, because mostly all cultures don't ever do that.

Because they like the feeling of cloth rubbing on their butt hole.  I spend the whole day trying to keep that outta there, why in the heck would I put it there on purpose?!?!?!

It DOES originate from the item a man would have been allowed to beat his wife with. If the item was smaller than his thumb, then he could beat her with it, but anything bigger than his thumb was not allowed!

Well, I'm not a guy, but I do think it gives men a bad name. Because it makes some guys think they can basically do what they want to do and get away with it because they're men. Same goes for some women, though.

This extreme covering up is enforced by men who are insecure and use their religion as a means of exercising excessive control over women. It's not a religion thing it's a man thing.

Because the material traps little pockets of air which retain the person's body heat.\n\nAnd if you don't mind being corrected, the word is 'underwear.'

Whine whine whine, little man. If I have to look at men who have bigger boobs than I do walk around without a shirt on, you can look at a few pudgy people. It's a body, it's human, get over it.
