I asked all my hot friends who look smoking in underwear (that got your attention, yes?) whether they like getting gifts of negligee from their other halves. Mixed results.

So how do you know which camp your lady falls into? If she buys herself lots of nice underwear and bras, that could be a sign that lingerie is something she’d love.

Here’s a list of gifts women I know have received from their significant others…and their relationships survived: a special ironing board for pressing drapes, a small trampoline for exercising, various pieces of hideous jewelry, new tires, and a suitcase.
Men, what’s been your experience buying naughty night-things for your lady?
