Do you ever feel like you could do things better than everyone else?  Like when you are waiting in line at the Post Office, do you ever think about how you would speed things up?  Or when you are looking at your phone bill, do you ever think about how you could make it easier to read?  All of us go through those times, times when we dream of being able to take control over the situations around us and making them better.

At yourprivates.com, we wanted to be able to put our customers in charge.  We carry brands that customers request, we search high and low for items that are hard to find, and we go above and beyond to make sure you are happy.

But did you know that we also allow you to design your own underwear?  That’s right, we have 50 styles that you can choose from, and then customize.  That’s what we call Basics Your Way.

So here’s how it works:  First you choose a basic style like this Contour Flopper (which happens to be one of our best sellers).  Like most products we sell you can choose size and color, but most of our items allow you to pick even more.  Simply click on Customize on the product page, and pick your options.

Options like what?

To begin with, you can choose the color and the fabric.  For most items that includes Lycra, Mesh, and Slinky fabric in a huge assortment of colors.  Tired of white, black or grey?  Why not try brown, baby blue, yellow, or even leopard print?

Some items let you choose the front style.  Classic is, well, classic.  Contour adds a little extra fabric for more room for the jewels.  And Magnum…well…that’s for the big guns.  Seriously, unless you are a male dancer or incredibly gifted the contour is probably big enough.

What about the back style?  Some guys like thongs; fewer lines, less fabric, more room and a sexy fit.  Some guys like a full seat with lots of coverage.  And some guys like it halfway in between.

Not sure how you feel about cock rings, but some guys love them and in many of our bottoms you can get one built into you underwear.

And if you are looking for swimwear, we can have those made with or without a rear seam.

After your purchase, we take your specs directly to the manufacturer and have your underwear made especially for you.  It takes a little while longer than pre-made clothes, but the end result is worth it; you end up a pair of underwear designed just the way you like it.

It’s just another way we here at YourPrivates.com have got you covered!

Check out our Basics Your Way today!

I know, I know…Bad blogger.  I can’t tell you how many emails I have waded through with readers asking, “Why didn’t you blog on Saturday?  You know good bloggers blog at least once a day!”  To those of you who sent those emails, I say this:  To me, it is still Saturday.

That’s right, Saturday and Sunday this week are have joined forces and are now considered one day.  At least for this week.

So what I am writing to you about today may seem odd to some of you.  To our customers who are in colder climates this topic may seem very out of place, but where we are located it’s the perfect time.

Guess it yet?

Swim suits.  Last night I went to a swim party, the first one I have been to in a long time.  It’s warmish here, and last night the skies were clear, the BBQ was smoking, the libations were flowing and your humble host was swimming.

Since it was my first swim party in a long time, I of course had to get a new suit, and this  Sport Fitted Classic Boxer from JM seemed like the perfect choice.  The cut really was perfect for me, and although it was fitted, it wasn’t so tight as to be…well…too revealing.

I can’t even begin to tell you how many compliments I got on this one….the colors aren’t blinding, no wild graphics distract everyone, and it just looks hot.

Many people are planning cruises or gearing up for Spring, so pop on over to our selection of fashion swimwear and dive into warmer weather today.

Earlier in the week I mentioned wearing something more revealing, and promised that I would soon write a review for that product.  Well my friends, that time has come.

I’ll let you in on a little chris history.  When I was a child, I wore under roos.  Then I graduated to tighty-whiteys.  In high school I made the move to boxers.  Man, what freedom!  And finally in college I found the joys of boxer briefs.

At each step of my growing up it seems I was paired with a certain type of underwear, and even today I know that there are days when I look at a pair of boxers and start to think back to the things I probably shouldn’t have done (but don’t regret).

But now what do I wear?  In all honesty, I have no idea what I would be wearing if I wasn’t working here.  Now that my job is to think about what I am wearing and what other people are wearing, I feel like I have graduated to a more advanced state of mind.

And it is with this advancement that I can tell you that I was sleeping in a thong.  Yes, that’s right, a thong.

Now, in my high school days I would never have considered it, and if I had and anyone found out, my social life would have been over.  Or at least that’s what I thought at the time.

But seriously, are thongs comfortable?  Yes.  Yes, they are.  Take this contemporary thong from C-IN2, my choice last Saturday night.

I knew that I was going out with a few friends…dinner, drinks, dancing, laughing, having a good time, and looking my best.  I went out and bought a new pair of jeans and a new shirt; I was going to look good.

Then I slipped on this cotton thong with Microfiber waistband which keeps everything in place with minimal lines showing through the new jeans, and designed to allow you to move how you need to move.

You should give a thong a shot; pick one up, plan an evening out, take a hot shower, towel off, put one on the thong and get used to the feel.  Look at yourself and realize how sexy you look.  Put on your nicest jeans, your best shirt, and hit the town and see how much more confidence you have.

Go on, pick up a C-IN2 Contemporary Thong today, and unleash a new you.

Today I’m going to let you in on a little secret.  I can’t believe I’m actually going to divulge this one, because I’m practically famous for it! Or is it infamous…well, whatever! But since our sale this week is on our Romantic Inclinations, I’m going to tell you about Honey Dust by Kama Sutra.  This stuff is wonderful.  I’m sure you can think of the obvious uses for it.  But why be obvious?  I prefer to be devious, of course.

When I am getting ready to go out or if I have a hot date, or if I know I’m going to be somewhere with “hot guy” potential, a part of my routine is to put this luscious Honey Dust on my neck and décolletage.  It is so soft and light, no one knows it’s there…until!  Just an innocent little kiss or a little nibble and BAM!  They want more.  Ever wonder why some men say “I kissed this girl one time who tasted sweet as a peach!”  Yeah..she knew the secret too…who knows, they might have been talking about me!

And as a bonus…how could you go wrong with something that comes with it’s own awesome feather duster to put it on with.  That little toy makes it even more fun to put it on someone else!  And while you are picking up some Honey Dust for yourself, look at our other Romantic Inclinations and see what else tickles your fancy. 

There are some things that we all do that a lot of people won’t talk about. I mean, they will flat our refuse to even admit that they do it. And no, I am not talking about my Stroke 29 post either.

Today I am talking about sweat. That’s right, sweat. Everyone does it (unless you have had that surgery), but most people don’t like to talk about it. Well, I don’t either, but if that’s where my job leads me, that’s where I will go.

So why am I talking about sweat? I was at a happy hour last night with some friends from another company I worked for, and after a few drinks one of my former co-workers started asking me about YourPrivates.com.

“I never wear underwear,” he admitted. The hurts me. Deeply.

“I’d like to,” he continued and leaned a little closer, “but I sweat too much down there and underwear makes it uncomfortable. Going commando I at least get a little breeze.”

Of course I had a solution and that’s the Action Mesh Bikini from /baskit/ underwear.

This is the prefect brief for people who want the comfort of cotton, but want the coolness of mesh. The main body is made like a regular brief, but the crotch is made of mesh which helps to cool you down.

And it’s not just for Overactive Sweat Guy either, these are great for going out dancing, working out, hiking, or any other situation when the heat may be on.

He’s picking up a couple pair to try today, and so should you!

While you’re at it, check out the whole /baskit/ underwear line.

Now a few weeks into the New Year, it’s a good time to look back and say, “Hey, am I still following my resolutions?” They say it takes 21 days to make a habit, have you made yours?

Like many people, I recommitted to going to the gym, but this year hasn’t been easy. But it hasn’t been my fault! My gym changed owners, my trainer can’t work with me there, and now I end up traveling to far away gyms to keep going.

But I am still going.

And my trainer wants me to run. I have never been a runner, and now that am running I think I know why. It’s not safe for the boys down there.

Seeing as though we have a large selection of fashionable, yet functional jock straps, I have been giving them a try.

I have found one that I found very interesting and comfortable, and that’s the Jock in Short by Go Softwear.

It’s a pair of gym shorts. It’s a jock strap. It’s a blessing for those days on the treadmill followed by Trainer Torture.

Go ahead, give the Jock in Short a try and give the boys some peace.

Not your style? Check out some of our other jocks instead.

I knew this morning what story I wanted to weave today on the blog, but I wanted to tame it down a bit; you know, write it in such a way that I ended up in a better light.  No matter how hard I tried, it just wasn’t meant to me.

It wouldn’t be truthful to say I read the paper.  I mean, I get the paper, but I don’t read it.  Most of it.  I like the movie listings for when I am too lazy to get to the computer, I like the cartoon because I don’t have to keep going from site to site to view them, and I like the ads.

So when I meet my neighbors outside in the mornings, it isn’t in a bathrobe and slippers, holding a cup of coffee as we casually head outdoors to great each other as we pick up the paper.  Oh no, it’s in a rush because I forgot to take out the trash and the trash people are early.

Like clock work, it happens twice a week.  I am sound asleep, dreaming of how I can introduce the world to better underwear, and my dream starts to grumble.  Slowly I wake up and realize that this sound should be important to me.  And then it hits me like a flash: The Garbage Man Cometh.

My first instinct is to just jump up and run out the door, but I have to think twice…as comfortable as the JM Skinz Bikini may be, I just don’t know that it’s what I should be racing my 63 year old neighbor to the curb in.

So I check what I am wearing and if it would scare the old neighbors, I toss on something with more coverage and run out the door.

This morning was no different, I jumped up and grabbed the first pair of boxers I could grab and pulled them on over a pair of…well I can’t tell you because I am going to write about them later in the week…so just a pair of something skimpy, and bolted out the door.

I was greeted one of my neighbors who gave me a look, so I started in on how comfortable this Ultimate Boxer from /Baskit/ underwear was.  How the button fly was really well constructed, how the fabric was formed to hang just the right way, and how the cut made the shorts move with you, even when you had to dash.

Mr. Neighbor just looked at me, nodded, and said, “So do you have to wear them backwards like that, or is that just the style now days?”

Sigh.  While I go hang my head in shame, take a look for yourself and pick up a pair of /Baskit/’s Ultimate Boxers.

Man, let me tell you the past couple weeks have been busy busy here at YP headquarters.  As some of you out there (our fans) know, we have undergone a lot of cool changes, and everyone here has been working non-stop to make them possible.

Because of all the long hours and weekend work that people have put in, we made sure that we started making people go out and rest some so that they were as fresh as possible when they were here, and one of the things we did was get everyone a massage.

And that got me to thinking, we have yet to talk about any of the romance items here at YourPrivates.com!  With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, it’s probably something we should discuss.

Since I just got back from my company sponsored massage, I thought I would talk about the sweet smell of sweet almonds.  That’s right, Sweet Almond massage oils from Kama Sutra.

Do and your special someone give eachother massages?  I mean, who doesn’t like them?  Well, this is one of my favorite massage oils.

It’s light, not greasy, and the smell is…well…nice.  It doesn’t smell herby or obscene, just…nice, so it’s great for men or women.  And with vitamin E, it’s great for the skin.

So what are you waiting for?  Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, pick up a couple bottles of massage oil and get some practice in before the big day.  And while you’re at it, pick up a few other items to help enhance your romantic experience!

It’s Friday, time to have some fun on the blog!  And yes, I’m listening to disco on my iPOD today.  So as the Bee Gee’s are singing to me, it dawns on me what I need to post about today….sex in the dark.  I’m talking NO lights at all, where you have to feel your way around.  Times such as these, when you don’t have your sight, other senses are hightened, such as touch. 

Now when you find yourself having some fun in the dark, remember that and make sure you have on some underwear that feel great.  I love the feel of the JM Skinz.  They feel so silky against your skin.  They make them in all the basic cuts, so you can pick whatever is your favorite.  My personal favorite are the Skinz Boxer Briefs.
