TV's Robin had to take pills to shrink his genitals while Batman stuffed his underwear

Well I never did! Never heard of pills to cause shrinkage! Quite the reverse, in fact (allegedly). Ho ho.

I accidentally ran across Burt Ward’s memoir, My Life in Tights while wandering around the library once and of course had to read it as I was in lust with Robin as a kid. Let’s just say he’s inordinately proud of his, erm, bulge. Don’t remember about the pills, but I do remember him saying that they padded him to keep it from showing much (to my great annoyance).You can find the book at Amazon, but it’s a collectors thing and not cheap. Also, Tom Holland has said that he was taken aback when told he’d have to wear a thong under his Spiderman suit. Damn it again! Still, I think there are official Spiderman thongs.

I know one thing, this Ward guy talks way too much.

They date back to at least the 1930’s although they probably weren’t very comfy.

The leotard goes back to the mid-1800’s so hopefully they had some way to support the goolies.

Amphetamine is so much more fun though. And it really does oppress uprisings effectively.

Kubrick loved how McDowell looked in the crisp white uniform and suggested that he wear the outfit’s groin protector on the outside, like a giant codpiece.

I had absolutely no idea there was chemistry that could actually reduce the size of the schmeckle.

I assume a very tiny(!) market for said product.

Other than for trans women, some anti-androgens are effective in managing prostate cancer, especially when the only alternative is castration.

I suppose Burt Ward’s costumers weren’t aware of the advantage of dance belts… or perhaps they did and Burt was seriously packing beyond said belt’s “packability”.

You can look for it with the desire to watch it… or to avoid it so not to watch by accident: George Carlin’s appearance as Spiderman in one of the Johnny Carson Tonight Show sketches. They had him in disturbingly revealing, leave nothing to the imagination, tights. George – a real trooper – must have known what was in store for the audience; he sort of crab-walked around in a futile attempt to stretch out the tights crotch in a way that would “tent” over and stretch away from his junk. The attempt bombed. He may as well have been out there naked. I wonder if Carlin ever talked about it in later years.
