Besides sales, the “feminist underwear” has inspired countless Instagram “belfies” (that’s a selfie for the behind) from Me and You customers eager to show off their feminist convictions as well as their pert posteriors.

“Most lingerie is designed to appeal to a man,” Ms. Baylis said. “For us, that’s not even a consideration. This is underwear you wear totally for you. Maybe no one will see it, or maybe you’ll put it up on Instagram to share with everyone you know.”. . .“I think there’s a widespread misconception that men are into pearl thong, lace contraptions,” said Ms. Javitch of Ten Undies. “To be honest, men are into girls in T-shirts and white underwear.”

It's not about what's sexy to men (it is totally about what is sexy to men).

Also here are the totally not designed to be sexy for men white underpants that are supposed to be some kind of revolutionary cut: https://hello-beautiful-usa.com/product/hello-beautiful-panty/
FYI you wouldn't be able to walk five steps in those without them ending up crammed into your buttcrack, speaking of thongs.
Also, guess what, you can currently and have been able to buy briefs at any department store, big box discount store, or on-line retailer since thongs came on the scene in packs of five for what these people are charging for one pair. Also also if not appealing to men is really what we're talking about here, how about offering your wares in sizes above a large, or using models who fall outside the confines what is generally considered to be attractive to straight men?
God. I didn't want to think this hard about underpants today. THANKS.

But Mr. McCartney and Ms. Shevell will likely have their work cut out for them: Little has been done to the unit, which, according to the listing, has five bedrooms, five full baths and one half bath. The couple can use the apartment as a part-time residence — unlike many of the co-ops on Fifth and Park Avenues, this one permits pieds-à-terre.

he's married to the mob!
"Mike Shevell and NEMF both have connections to the American Mafia according to an investigation conducted by the federal government. In a racketeering suit filed by the U.S. Attorney in 1988 Shevell was accused of making Mafia payoffs and having an eleven-year corrupt relationship with Tony Provenzano, a Genovese family mobster and former union leader who was convicted of racketeering and murder. The matter was settled with no admission of wrongdoing.[1][2] Shevell's daughter, Nancy Shevell, is an NEMF vice president. She married musician Sir Paul McCartney on October 9, 2011."

The Big City column last Sunday, about reaction to previews of a book about wives on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, referred incorrectly to a woman who wrote a blog post for Elle magazine about life in the neighborhood. Her byline, Blair Schmaldorf, is a pseudonym, not her real name, which she will not disclose.
I am dying that they thought Blair Schmaldorf was a real name.
