Men Pay Homage to the Silk Worm

Posted Fri November 9, 2007 11:40 am, by Jonas G. written to Fredericks of Hollywood

Write a Letter to this Company


I need to begin my letter with a bit of a disclaimer. I am a happily married man. My wife looks very good in your products, and according to her, so do I.

I have been wearing your products for about 5 years now. I used to wear my wife's clothes, but good home cooking and two kids have taken their toll; as a result, we are no longer the same size. After a long discussion, we decided that I should begin shopping for my own undergarments. The problem is that your store and website are very un-man friendly.

I still have man-britches that I wear when I am going to the doctor or bowling, but my collection of silky undergarment needs some freshness added to it. I took a chance once and wore a pair of your silk undergarments fishing; I caught the biggest fish of my life! My buddy attributed it to my lucky hat, but I know it was my "lucky" lacies.

I have some suggestions that you may want to consider to make your store more man friendly.

Make your store more man friendly and accessible. Avoid putting you stores in close proximity to sporting goods stores and soft pretzel kiosks. Set aside a portion of your store for your male customers.

Have you considered men for your website? We like the ladies, but it would be nice to see how they fit on us as well.

Marketing is key! Have you considered hiring on some big names in the industry to sell your products? I for one would like to see normal guys such as Drew Carey, Jimmy JJ Walker or even Larry Bird wearing your products in magazines, on TV or even the Big Screen.

I like most men with a few extra pound consider myself an A-cup, maybe you could start there.

Please consider my recommendations, I love your Teddies and don't want to settle for anything less than Frederick's of Hollywood Quality.

Wow, good for you and your honesty! I think it's a good idea, after
all it's the 21st century now, there are probably plenty of men that
would think that is a good idea.

Sorry to say, but this is still considered a bit taboo. But I have
heard of other men liking to wear womens undergarments, so you arent
the only one. (and dont let people tell you your sick, your sex life
is your business ;D)

But, since it is a very small percentage, (or a small percentage that
will admit to it) I dont think they want to risk alienating the
"normal" people.

Oh well. Nice suggestion letter though. I think, as far as
web-ordering goes you are just going to have to get your measurements
and go from there. There are probably sites out there that will help
you determine your sizes.

I'm sorry in advance if this is a serious letter but I had to chuckle
when I read some of it.

My real last name is Jones, throughout my youth, I was usually just
called Jonesy, then someone "changed" it to Jonas and it somehow
stuck, probably because I didn't take to kindly to the name at the
time. Somewhere along the line someone put 2-and-2 together, added the
Grumby and from that point forward, I've been known as Skipper.

I thought it would be fun to just go with it, not much embarrasses me
any more.

But you are right, my given name is not Jonas Grumby, it is a name I
have"lived" with for a long time though.

Oh, the picture is not me either detective.

And before you call me a liar, ask yourself this: " Is he the only man
that wears his wife's clothes? "

If the answer is yes, then come back and we will debate the liar thing
again.

You don't go by Fred Flintstone, though... by Jeffrey Sun November 11, 2007 @ 7:54 AM


get over it by "Clete" Sun November 11, 2007 @ 10:52 AM


by "Clete" Posted Fri November 9, 2007 @ 1:40 PM

Why is it that every letter with a bit of humor is immediately
attribute to Cletus?

I can hardly keep up with my own letters, much less the letters of
someone else.

Allow me to explain one thing, I only used the name Fred Flintstone
because I thought everyone had a fake name here.

Besides, who in the world knows the real name of Gilligan and his crew
anyway? I always thought he was Alan Hale??

...the terms of service when you signed up? If you registered with
the name "Fred Flintstone," you violated the TOS. And if you send a
letter under this fake name, so much the worse.

However, you HAVE corrected the situation.

The Skipper's name was Jonas Grumby. The actor was Alan Hale.

Mrs. Howell's first name was Eunice.

The professor was Roy Hinkley.

Maryanne's last name was Summers.

So, um, Jeffrey, is there something you want to share with the group? by Peregrina Fri November 9, 2007 @ 10:33 PM

You are right. by Jeffrey Sun November 11, 2007 @ 7:55 AM

I'm sure you can find some websites showing men in ladies underwear.

Reply

by Jeffrey Posted Fri November 9, 2007 @ 12:46 PM

Oh, any by the way...

Unless you have an incredibly good sense of humor about your name, I
find it interested that your real name is "Jonas G." and your avatar
shows someone named "(Skipper) Jonas Grumby."

Seems like someone else (Clete) found it funny to come here a register
as a classic TV character (Fred Flintstone). Same as you.

Hmmmmm....

Wanna come clean? You're not on the level, are you?

by Jeffrey Posted Fri November 9, 2007 @ 12:43 PM

I'll assume that you're telling the truth.

If that's the case, you fail to make your point because of your
attempt at humor.

In fact, it's clear from the way you've written this letter that you
are lying.

Are you unaware of the fact that you can buy men's underwear made of
silk and satin?

Umm, I don't think he's interested in "Men's" silk underware by MA Loper Fri November 9, 2007 @ 2:44 PM
