As I was "jokingly" referred to as hypersexual for the first 40 years of my life, I have some personal experience with this sort of thing, so I'm going to tell you the honest truth:

I hate any kind of lingerie. I loathe it. I think that it makes an otherwise lovely girl look cheap and ready for the street corner, or ANYWHERE other than with me.

Now, I'll concede that there are men with a preference for a courtesan than a lover, and that there are women who like the look of lingerie because it makes them feel a bit sexy/slutty; but, as for me, if you're going to wear anything seductive, it might be an overly large cotton tank-top and... well, nothing (and, for God's sake, don't wear socks to bed!).

Maybe I started too young; I don't know. When you're 12 and your lover's 11, you don't expect the (sort of predecessor of Victoria's Secret) Fredrick's of Hollywood get-up to step out of summer shorts.

I was in college when I got my first look at a lingeried seductruss and I had one of my cannot-laughing-until-I-fall-to-the-floor-and-if-I-look-I'll-only-keep-laughing moments. She was graceful enough to go back to the other bedroom and change into a flannel shirt and after the laughter stopped she said something like, "I know; weird, hunh?" And I doubled over laughing for another 20 minutes.

We went out to Bob's Big Boy and split a piece of hot-fudge cake. Oh, but she had forgotten to tell me that she didn't eat meat.

I've been fortunate, I guess, in that, before reaching a certain point, girls have always 'signalled' (best way that I know how to say it) before making any kind of unholy wardrobe faux pas. Even "I'm just going to get out of this dress," will bring out my crucifix and holy water until "...and into what?" is satisfactorily answered.

I simply lack the words – there are no adequate words in any human language – for the degree that I abhor lingerie on a woman's body.

Don't misunderstand me; some men enjoy wearing women's lingerie and, as for me, the more that's covered the better.

And if you're a woman, trying to hide a birthmark on your leg and believe that stockings are the way to go, please, please consider aluminium foil instead.

I don't know how much one of those full outfits cost – the ones with the capes and corsets and utility belts, but Jockey, UA, other vendors can get you 10 or more comfortable and quite sexy bra and panty sets.

No, we guys do not like you to wear lingerie "for us." Would you like us to wear a full body ape suit "for you"?

If you find that the guys that you're sleeping with aren't making you feel sexy and feminine enough, have them PM me and I can give them some tips... whether you want to be easy like Sunday morning or wondering where the lions are.
