It's been the age-old question for men ever since humans started wearing underwear: boxers or briefs? And thanks to some number crunching and David Beckham's underwear-only H & M ad which sparked the debate, SodaHeads have finally provided an answer. It was a pretty narrow win (56%) but BOXERS came out victorious! And, of course, there are some interesting nuances worth mentioning, so let's dig a little deeper, shall we? You may want to keep your pants on for this...
WOMEN SAY BOXERS, MEN SAY BRIEFS
Women and men disagree on a lot of things, and apparently, that includes what kind of underwear a dude should wear. An overwhelming number of women voted for boxers (73%) while a small majority of men said they'd prefer to have a tighter fit beneath their pants (52%). Judging by the percentages, it seems that women are more passionate about boxers than men are about briefs. Wonder where that sass comes from...
YOUNGSTERS YEARN FOR BOXERS
Does it surprise you that the younger generation prefers it loose, while the older crowd stays true to the tighty whitey? Voters aged 25-34 were the most enthusiastic about boxers (at 75%), while those aged 13-17 and 18-24 also enjoyed the looser fit, at 68% and 65% respectively. However, voters aged 45-54 were the least happy with boxers. Only 37% voted for the freer undies over briefs (63%.)
CONSERVATIVES LIKE FREEDOM MORE THAN LIBERALS
...underwear freedom that is. Underwear preference doesn't seem like a terribly political issue, but one funny statistic we noticed was that conservatives actually opted for a more liberating underwear experience with boxers (at 61%) more than liberals did (50%). Ironically enough, libertarians preferred briefs (64%) over any other political party. So much for the party emphasizing freedom and liberty, right guys?

Briefs are like cheap hotels, no Ball Room!
Women only like boxers because it makes it easier for 'em to grope and molest men. ;-)
don't judge me ._.
