Even as more men seem to be wearing them, whatever their job, the mantyhose are still hard to find in shops, as there is a perceived stigma about buying them.
It seems a lot of men in a variety of age groups are finding mantyhose comfortable and pleasant.
Mantyhose are a very different design from women's pantyhose.
Many of the men who will admit to wearing mantyhose say that their wives or girlfriends feel more awkward about it than they themselves do.
One solution is to instead buy "mantyhose," but most of the confusion is best relieved by education.
The trend in "mantyhose" is growing, according to a number of news reports and surveys, as well as company earnings.
They also note that mantyhose can work like a girdle, or a "mirdle," and help control a beer belly.
