Mantyhose

Mantyhose
Pantyhose for men.

Carol Midgley wrote in The Times of London:

The trend for straight men to invade female fashion territory is seemingly unstoppable. Even before manscara and guyliner there were man bras, or manzieres. Now there are umpteen Web sites for male nylons.
Noelle Hancock reported in New York magazine:
There’s even a Web site called e-MANcipate aiming to “accelerate the acceptance of male pantyhose as a regular clothing item.” The site offers testimonials from truck drivers who swear by mantyhose for those long cold drives and an illustrated guide for how to put on male pantyhose without destroying them.
