I underdress every day, but only in panties. There is no "thrill" or "excitement" involved. They're just my undies.
Boy undies are boring and fit funny. I don't know what it is, but they feel "weird."
I don't have enough up top to need a bra. Pads, shapewear, etc. aren't my thing. I'm not trying to look the part so much as I am just wearing what feels "right" to me.
If my wife were OK with me doing a little more - such as ladies slacks or tops, I would. She's not, so I don't. To the outside world these days, I'm just another dude.
