I hardly think boxer briefs are the equivalent of lingerie.

That's a fair point for OP to make, and sometimes when someone makes a request for what they want, they start with what they want and can talk about it and compromise if the person they are talking to has conflicting wants.

If OP didn't care at all about wearing briefs, he might have just switched without a word. This request is only unreasonable because he doesn't want to and the decision should factor in his wants, which she would not have known before her request.

&gt;This request is only unreasonable because he doesn't want to

The request is unreasonable specifically because they want him to trash a whole segment of his existing wardrobe. There are exceedingly few circumstances where this could be seen as a legitimate request; for instance maybe *every single* pair he owns is worn beyond reason or repair

It would be reasonable to want your partner to try something new certainly, but as is unless his significant other is joking or using hyperbole, this is bonkers madness lunacy
