Wet boxer contest

Wet boxer contest

The wet boxer-short contest is a form of beauty contest featuring men in their underwear. It is analogous to the wet t-shirt contest that features women. However, unlike a wet T-shirt contest the water used is warm instead of cold. Some feminists have disputed the comparison, claiming that the contests are degrading for women and not for men because of sexism.
