Summary: A really good history...
Comment: someone gave me this as a gag birthday gift, but I'm glad I didn't toss it out. I sat down to read it and it's actually well done. As a man, I've wondered why our choices seem to be either boxers or briefs, but there's a whole social/cultural/religious/physical context going on here. Fascinating.

Summary: Fascinating history
Comment: I have to admit, I thought this would be a lightweight book about a lightweight topic. But Griffin is serious about his subject and how this relates to social, personal and yes, political, religious and military history over the last 2,000 years.

It's a lot more interesting than one would think, and this subject has a definite correlation to sexual identity and freedom through the ages.
