When I was a competitive speedskater we all wore them... try not wearing them when you're wearing a spandex racing suit and it's 16 degrees below zero in West Alles, Wisconsin.
A speedskater's legs of either gender look pretty good.

Actually, lots of walkers and men that work outdoors wear tights or pantyhose under their other garments, as the trapped air will keep them warm without bulk. So why not?
It's good to think then men have to struggle into the things now and again - remember the funny scene in What Women Want where Mel Gibson tries on a pair, ripping them in the process?

Personally I see no reason why a man cannot wear pantyhose, however it has been forced into our minds that pantyhose is a feminine article of clothing, and this Will shape all answers that you receive. Hence that idiot saying "only if your gay".
Additionally, I can't imagine the personal beneficial factor of wearing such hose, despite gender. I assume they are designed either to keep out wind-chill, which i doubt they do, OR designed by some guy who realized that they accent beautiful legs, which again is predominately a feminine quality.
If your a guy and want to wear hose then my advice is DO IT. Don't worry about what others think about your innocent actions to please yourself.
I visited a city with a different culture, all the "foreign" guys wore these long wide white smocks, basically they were male dresses. And I realized that if my society allowed me to wear such a smock then I would feel no more sexual, but much more spiritually in control of my mind. But I remain trapped due to society.
I hope this is some form of analogy.
You wear your hose, and I'll wear my smock, and to all potential fellow answer'ers : IT AINT necessarily sexual!

There is nothing wrong with a man who likes to wear pantyhose. They not only feel great, but can enhance the way your legs look.
They also have health benefits as well. If you suffer from leg pains, they can help relieve them. The compression that they provide can even help circulation.
Also many men suffer from jock-itch. The barrier that the fabric provides relieves the burning itching and can even cure this common problem.
So go right ahead and enjoy yourself.

If they want to, and they are not going to steal them from anyone or hurt anyone in any way in order for them to wear pantyhose, Why the hell not?
Unlike some people that are answering this question, I believe clothes really don't define your sexual preferences. If a guy wants to wear something, he should be allowed to. It might be a little uncomfortable for him, as they were not designed for a man, but whatever...
If you want to go so far as to shave your legs to have the same sensation a woman would by wearing them, go ahead.
As long as they are your hose, and not something you stole or borrowed from your girlfriend, wife, sister, mother or other relative or friend, then by all means. If it makes you happy, and you like it, why should or would you let anyone stop you or be concerned with how others might feel about it!
Good luck!

The question probably should have been "do you" or "have you ever" but to answer the question as asked. YES! What, ... now we have fashion police everywhere? Lets ask a bunch of 60 plus year old grannies if people should get facial piercings. A man designed pantyhose so they should be wearing them, right. I don't tell you how to dress or look so don't tell me what to wear and I won't tell you where to go and yes I am a daily wearer.

Of course we should. Comfilon makes pantyhose for men. They are wonderful!

Well, men can wear pantyhose if they want. But most guys that I know don't wear them. However, if it's cold in your area, you could wear them under your jeans/pants. Nobody's gonna make fun of you unless you tell them :p

Absolutley. My guy wears them for added comfort and support because he is on his feet all day. Just shave, OK? My guy does and his legs look hot in pantyhose or tights.

Sure, why not? Knock yourself out.
If a certain Mr Frank Lampard showed up at my door wearing nothing but a pair of pantyhose and a cheeky smile, i'd be all over him!
