Gay Owned Brand Welcomes Larger Body Types

02/06/2023

There is, as we have reported many times, a long standing relationship between LGBTQIA+ liberation movements and body acceptance movements.  From Susie Orbach's treatise "Fat is a Feminist Issue" to the lesbian collectives declaring independence from patriarchal ideas of beauty, through to the gay male "twink" celebration of thin guys and the "bear" culture of plus size guys.  Some months after blogging about challenging size phobia in the gay community, the popular gay and bi men's underwear and clubwear brand Andrew Christian has launched a range of garments for larger men.  In a press release, the gay owned company said " Introducing the latest and greatest underwear line that's about to take the gay community by storm - THICK. Yes, you heard us right. THICK. Designed to fit all shapes and sizes--with a particular focus on bigger bodies--these undies are going to blow your mind!  And let's talk about that sex appeal. Whether you're into sophisticated black or eye-catching vibrant colors, THICK has got you covered. Right now we're unveiling the flagship THICK Boxer, THICK Brief, and THICK Jock, with more bodacious styles coming soon.".  You can view the newly launched collections at AndrewChristian.com but as these are super revealing outfits, the website is best viewed from a non work computer!
