Men’s Idea Of The Perfect Lingerie Is Totally Predictable

Just like men and women have very different ideas about the ideal standards of beauty, they also have pretty different opinions when it comes to finding the perfect lingerie for women.

U.K.-based lingerie company Bluebella (who’s also responsible for the Perfect Female Body poll) conducted a survey that asked both sexes what they look for in lingerie styles.

Unsurprisingly, the male vision is full of flesh, lace, bows, suspenders, and stockings in bright colours. (Perhaps a result of our society’s over-the-top “sex sells” mentality?) The results showed that 54 per cent of men chose a revealing bra and 37 per cent chose the skimpiest underwear as their favourites.

Women, on the other hand, tend to prefer more subtle, understated tones and styles with a little more coverage. According to the survey, 62 per cent of ladies prefer their bums to be covered by their underwear, and 64 per cent said that when choosing a bra, comfort was the most important — a full cup was the most popular choice.

The Daily Mail notes that the average British woman buys five lingerie sets a year and 67 per cent of them don’t think twice about what their partner’s preferences might be when they make their purchase. Instead, they’re just focused on what they want and need to accentuate their best assets, which is exactly how it should be.

While we’re firm believers that you don’t need anyone telling you what type of underwear you should be wearing, we also don’t see anything wrong with buying a sexy lingerie set to please both yourself and your partner.

In fact, results from the survey also revealed that 84 per cent of women do keep special lingerie on hand for special occasions, and 89 per cent said they felt more sexually confident when wearing it.

Whatever your lingerie preference, you just keep doing you!
