Fly or no fly

[Northwoods]

A comment from another forum:

Flyless men's under garments are a plot to further emasculate men, further the politically correct myth that men and women are the same, and remove the natural, god-given advantages of being male.

I disagree.  I find it more comfortable without a fly.  Had another member on that forum agree with me, and nobody else has stood up for the opinion expressed by the quoted guy.

What say ye?

I don't use the fly on my boxer shorts or long underwear anyway.

[Nick1911]

I use mine regularly at urnals.

Ditto.

As well as when doing number one at a water closet.

They do, however, come in handy if you are putting your d*** in a box.

No fly. My brother once walked into the room with boxers that had no closure device for the fly. I decided then and there that flyless undergarments are a wonderful idea.

Besides, I wear running shorts as underwear these days - and they don't have a fly.

I hate flied undies.  Like bw, I've worn running shorts before as undies and that was divine.

[roo_ster]

Fly, for the aforementioned reasons.

[wmenorr67]

What are these things called undies.  Commando is the way to go.

Fly for my underbritches

Generally speaking, just hitching down the top waistband, or going out under one leg is easier. Don't really care if there's a fly or not. Except for boxers, where the fly does not always close properly, which can be irritating.

No fly, on boxer briefs.

[grampster]

"...had another member..."
 

Hmmmmm,  I've only been able to find one.

Yes, that is a bad in combination with a zipper.

When I was buying my own shorts, it was no fly. When my wife started buying my briefs, it was with fly.

Having said that, getting through the maze that the briefs have, I don't use the fly. Never did, actually, as I sit when peeing.

Wow this thread is drifting all over the place.  Thank god that up to now there haven't been any pictures.  But since I have now jinxed it, I will add this  in advance.

I just don't like the "fly" term...tiny little nasty creatures...I'd prefer "Barn Door".  Truthfully though, I very rarely use the barn door, I pull the elastic waistband down.

I would equate the barn door to the back side of a one piece longjohn set.

Do you set your purse on the top of the tank, or somewhere else?

I have known more than a few people who sat down and watched in horror as their handgun promptly fell out of the waistband holster and skittered across the floor.  One guy had this happen with a cocked and locked Colt 1911, and he said it was a good thing he was already sitting on the toilet when it happened, so he wouldn't leave a stain in his shorts. This is why I actually hold the gun in the holster as I lower my pants and when raising them back up again.  Most of my IWB holsters do not have retention straps.

All more another reason for a shoulder rig.

According to an LEO of my acquaintance, the way to avoid toilet/gun issues is to avoid sitting on a toilet while on duty. Just hold it. I guess, for CCW purposes, one could just avoid using public toilets.

Actually, AJ, I started sitting when peeing when I was in my teens. It helped me get more blow jobs, as my shorts didn't smell like urine which, surprisingly, is a turn-off for many women. So there.

You must have had some seriously bad technique then. That's like saying 'When I shoot, I place the muzzle of my gun against the bullseye, because I was having too many AD's/ND's in my holsters and range bag."
