Some time back I had a project where I had to give feedback to fifty people taking part in an entrepreneurial program. The task was daunting and likely to take me an entire week to complete. So instead of writing the individual reports I decided to record them--and then thought it might work for email too.

Every time someone used the internet, no one else could make calls from the house phone. The epic part of using dial-up internet was the loud sound that came out from the modem before it connected to the internet: beep bip bip bip bip bip bip… [ Sekarang ni kalau dengar bunyi ni kat printer masa nak fax documents, terus KLMJ zaman guna internet zaman 90an dulu ]

One Of Life’s Essentials

In the 1999 feature film American Beauty, Kevin Spacey’s character, Lester Burnham’s crush on his daughter’s school friend motivates him to discover some rusty old weights in his garage and start to work out. Professing to his gay neighbours “I want to look good naked”, this could be said to be the dawn of our current ‘spornosexual’ era – when men started to work out not only for themselves but to impress other men.

Today, a search for #Abs on Instagram reveals over nine million results of guys flaunting their ripped torsos and flashing their underwear waistbands for the world to see. Those protein shakes and hours of gym time have quickly prompted a revolution in men’s underwear.

Gone are the days when men had their underwear bought for them from Marks & Spencer by somebody else, whether it be their mother, wife or girlfriend. A recent survey of a thousand men by Canadian underwear brand Garçon Model found 90 per cent of guys are now buying their own underwear, with 70 per cent buying online.

According to those surveyed, the gym is where most men are influenced in their choice of underwear. Undressing to impress, two thirds of guys surveyed even went as far as to say they wear different underwear at the gym.
