Recently, a gaggle of girls (and gays) gasped at Varun Dhawan's exposed Lux Cozy underwear strap, calling it blasphemous. “It's damn ugly ya...”, exclaimed a 20-something millennial who only identified herself as a former Varun Dhawan fangirl. “I'm sorry to say this, but this photo made him lose his *** appeal!”, messaged a gay friend whose love for Varun Dhawan goes way back to his butt-baring days from 'Student Of The Year'. So what went wrong for Varun in Budapest? Definitely not his muscle-mary abs, or his Aalim Hakim-approved hairstyle, or his aviators that are a homage to Tom Cruise.

Underwear—the good kind—can leave a long-lasting impression especially when you want to be naked in front of a certain admirer. And underwear straps (think the iconic Calvin Klein logo-ed strap) have been an item of external sexual fantasy for most women (and men). So, unless you are a bro that loves going commando, underwear is something that you should take seriously. It needs to be comfortable-yet-stylish, classic-yet-cool and most importantly not venture down the tacky route. Because it's 2017 and ain't nobody got time for that. Also, underwear for activities like gym, work, sleep, and *** should all lead different (and individual) lives and never interact with each other.

In order to explore the sartorial nuances of the humble underwear, we asked 8 Indian men to take us through the journey of their underwear, and here's what they had to say.

1) "Honestly, I don't even know who washed my underwear. I just leave it in the laundry box and it comes back clean. Basically, you need to throw away your underwear when you can't wash off the cum stains anymore. Bonus: I wear my mesh undies when I know I'm about to get laid. Sexy, no?" - Tarun, 24

2) "I usually wash them immediately after I wear them. And, I don't have separate underwear for the gym. Alternatively, when I know I'm about to get laid, I bring out my best pair out to play. They are usually light-weight boxers that hug your package tight and make them look good. Otherwise, I prefer my underwear loose enough to feel like I've gone commando (laughs)" - Sumeet, 27

3) "I have a different underwear for every day of the week and it's usually a pair of compressions shorts. Also, when I'm about to get laid, I wear my lightest pair, 'cause it's just easier to take off!" - Aditya, 26

4) "I throw away my underwear once it becomes saggy/loose and the colour starts to fade away. And I wash it every day, obviously. I wear sexy underwear that basically means a fresh, new pair when there's sexy time involved!" - Manav, 28

5) "I wear the same undies for gym and life, and usually throw them away when it tears and doesn't up/gets ugly. When I know I'm about to get laid, I wear my CKs or my Kenneth Coles!" - Sahil, 26

6) "I wash my underwear daily. Because, hygiene. I have separate underwear for regular use, gym, and play. I'm usually very particular about the underwear brands I wear. I'm a loyalist to NEXT, Diesel, and CK. But this doesn't mean I don't enjoy my Aussie Bums which are usually reserved for special dates—of you know what I mean." - Rahul, 27

7) "Just don't wear your Star Wars undies when you think you are getting laid. Unless she's into the whole nerd game (laughs)" - Karan, 26
