In India, these months are peak marriage months, during which men order lingerie for their would-be brides; subsequently marriage anniversary falls between these months giving men yet another opportunity for gifting their lady love.
Why do men spend so liberally on lingerie?
Men are not buying lingerie to gift it to their lady love. Actually it is a gift they are buying for themselves! No wonder they are finding every opportunity to gift themselves!
By the way, majority of shoppers in brick & mortar 'intimate apparel' stores are women. If men do find the courage to enter the store, they are invariably accompanied by their wives or lady friends!
