Some women love them because a great corset makes them feel gorgeous, and dare I say it, sexy. They wear them as both under wear and outer garments. Although contemporary corsets offer structure, many are not as restrictive as they were historically. The form of these garments depends on their intended use.

Women are not the only ones who wear these structuring undergarments. Men who wear these undergarments will choose to do so for some of the same reasons as women. Many men also like to wear them because they feel that corsets are erotic and some even claim to wear them for spiritual reasons.

Even though men still wear these garments, the traditional market for these articles of clothing heavily focuses on the female population. The internet has many places where men can shop for corsets that fit their tastes.

Keeping these points in mind can help you with purchasing a garment to help you meet your corset needs. Don’t be shy. When you are not sure, ask the corset maker or your salesperson as many questions as necessary to help you find just what you’ve been looking for.
