Baby-hungry wife wants him to switch undies
Q: My wife and I are thinking about having a baby. She recently read an article saying that it’s better for men to wear boxers than briefs because the “equipment” has more room to breathe. I’ve been wearing briefs since I was a kid and I don’t want to stop . Should I bow to her wishes or tell her to get out of my underwear drawer?
Steve: Ah, the question for the ages: Boxers or briefs? A man either prefers the freedom of the former or the comfort and security of the latter. Unless your wife is having trouble getting pregnant, it’s a non-issue. I suggest a joint sit-down with your obstetrician.
Mia: Well, I hear J. Lo is making Marc Anthony wear boxers, so you’re in good company. I say try out the boxers for a little while.
Q: I’ve got the reverse problem that you wrote about last week. My girlfriend has lovely small breasts but she wants implants. I love her the way she is. I’m sure you’re small-busted, Mia, and you’re big-hearted, Steve. What should I do about this?
Steve: You’re half right about us. I do have a big heart. The solution is simple: Tell her what you’ve told us. Also mention that men who judge a woman’s worth by her breast size aren’t worth having.
Mia: I am so not discussing my breast size here.
Q: I know you guys normally don’t get questions from prison inmates, but I have a question about my relationship with a woman who was supposed to love me through “thick and thin.” I got myself into a little trouble to help put clothes on her children and feed them. I’ve been a father to them for four years. After being locked up three months, she wrote me a letter saying she’d decided to move on and that I shouldn’t contact her anymore. I’m thinking of things to do to her when I get out, but I know it will only land me back here. Please explain what I should do?
Steve: Many of our readers are in prison. Heck, some of our editors are. First, seek out a prison counselor to help you work out your anger. If you don’t let your emotion go you will destroy yourself. Do not contact this woman again. Get help and stay out of trouble.
Mia: At least you recognize that many things you could do would land you back in prison. Get out. And don’t do anything illegal to help future girlfriends.
