To be completely honest, I’ve never really thought about it.
Maybe it has to do with the allure of the forbidden. Kind of like wanting to do something simply because your parents, or society, told you “No”?
It could that even though you know what you are going to see it is that the item you are looking for is either such a personal item or that it is so close to such a personal spot. (OTOH, it may be the hope that she isn’t wearing anything?)
Well interesting question, I never really considered why. There is something erotic about seeing upskirt shots and a good bishoujo example would be when a girl is either sitting or happens to fall and her legs are spread and you get a good upskirt shot typically. I’ve seen that in about 90% of the games I have played. Even though you may know what is there, it is different for everyone. For example you know what a breast looks like but you still wanna see it =P. Thats the best I can think of, I do like upskirt shots alot but I cannot really pinpoint exactly why. It might just be that allure of something forbidden.
I don’t know, maybe seeing the panties helps the man feel close to the woman. You certainly don’t see the panties every day, certainly not in America since everyone wears pants, except us crazy punks on dress-down day, we dress up in kilts, the man-skirts.

Question is, do girls try to look up your, er, man-skirts? [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]
The forbidden aspect is probably the most true I think. Then there's always the possibility that the girl's not actually wearing panties. (Don't ask me why someone would do that. I also don't understand why a girl would wear pantyhose without panties either.) And if you know the person, there's always the chance that they're wearing some underwear that you might not expect. Er, like some prim and proper person wearing something lacy and frilly. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

Do you mean those things they wear in Scotland??
ABout up-skirt, I've never been really interested in looking up skirts myself so I wouldn't know what makes it interesting, through I can imagine that some people might be interested in seeing something they otherwise wouldn't be able to see?
were all big perverts Kumiko, no I honestly can’t think of a reason why to look upskirts considering all women have the same thing, unless you have both -.- then thats definantly less appealing of course i’m not much into alot of the fetishes people have I pretty much see it as being distasteful.
Spectator: You worded that kinda wrong, just because they like to look up a girls skirt does not mean it is something they will otherwise never see…
Kano2k5: The primitive reason we are here is to breed, so technically your right we are all big perverts deep down =P. I read somewhere that the average male thinks about sex once every 3 seconds every day. Who can argue with that statistic!
Panty shots are just erotic to some people, the voyeuristic aspect of it could make it appealingto them, who knows why some people have certain fetishes.
Okay, I’ll admit to the truth! We like looking up girls skirts because we were told not to! (And of course there’s always getting punished for being caught looking up said skirts… )
in my opinion, ekylo-san is exactly right…it’s forbidden territory, so it feels naughty and therefore erotic…i know that i myself love catching a panty shot, be it in a game or real life…i like the game of looking without it being obvious that i am looking…or a hot girl adjusting her skirt or shorts and you get a really nice thigh shot, same thing…
you’re not SUPPOSED to look, so of course you have to…just think of how many kids get caught with their hand in the cookie jar after being told ‘no’? it’s human nature, i think, to want to do exactly the opposite of what we are told
Why do we guys look up a girl’s skirt???Hmmmmm. After much thought and several tries at put it down in words, I can think of some reasons, a couple have already been said, so here is one that has not. To watch a girl walking down the street and see her skirt flip back and forth as she moves her leg and that she is basically exposed but for her panties (if she is wearing any) is to tempting to a guy. A knee length, or shorter, skirt give a girl an air of vulnerability, that attracts men. For to look up her skirt, you are looking almost directly at her most hidden treasure, that which she gives to her lover(s) and to no one else( unless she a real slut and will sleep around with any one or thing) For that man, who can see under her skirt, will see something that is forbidden to him and all others.
P.S.
The only time I every looked up a girls skirt was in fourth grade and that was by accident. Dropped my pencil by the girl’s desk and looked up when I heard my name. The nun was mad, I when to Catholic grade school. I did not know what all the big fuss was about at the time.
If you have ever seen Najica Blitz Tactics,
a new show that pretty much JUST finished up
on Japanese TV, almost every other shot is a panty one… Reminds of Agent Aika BUT this is a TV series vs. and OAV…
Onions. I think has something to do with layers. Getting ever so much closer I think has a seductive element to it.

Wow. I don't know about anyone else but, according to that report, I must be abnormal. I don't go around everyday counting the number of times I think about sex but I am pretty certain that the average time length between such thoughts is _much_ longer than 3 seconds.
Most of my time is consumed in work, computers (work and home), karate, various personal projects and console/pc gaming.
Skirts…
Basically tabris17 and PJR sumarizes it all. It is not necessarily the underwear we want to see, though, but rather the fact that something is covering it (the skirt) and the skirt has a, ahem, vulnerability (for the lack of a better word). Think about it: it is not the same when girls are wearing PE uniform, it shows the legs, but their undergarments are all, errr…, well hidden, without any chance that you can sneak on it. Nor it is the same a girl who is wearing a long skirt (ankle length) than a girl wearing a short skirt (way above knee length). We know that the former’s chance to peek is almost zero, while the latter, chances are greatly increased.
Likewise, it applies not only to skirts, but to shirts, too. If it rains, and the shirt gets wet, it will attract a lots of attention. Cases: Season of the Sakura, during the trip it rains and you and a girl look for shelter in a cave; Kakyuusei TV, episode 4, where Tsuyoshi peeks on Ryoko’s uniform after it got when during the rain. It also attracts lots of attention if the shirt a girl is wearing leaves some buttons, unbuttoned…
Wacky personal experience: During high school, there was a classroom that was oddly arranged. The instructor’s desk was a the opposite side of the blackboard, and there were three columns of chairs to the left of it and three to the right. The odd part was that, instead of facing the blackboard, the chairs were facing each other (that is, the the ones of the right were facing to the ones of the left and viceversa. Think about the neck pain we had after each class there…) The chair assignments were fixed by that instructor, and I was in the second column of the ones of the right. Nothing strange, right? Wrong! In the first column of the other side there was a girl who was a bit exhibitionist. Every now and then, she placed her legs in such a way that her panties could be seen! I didn’t ask for it, yet I had a hard time concentrating for the class during the whole bimester (when the instructor reassigned the seats). Also I was in the odd situation: should I have told her? I mean, if I told her she would have tought I was a pervert; if I didn’t, well, let’s say I managed to pass that class…

I know, but that's another fetish... (C'mon, people don't buy/get Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition just for the articles...)

If you knew the girl, probably I would have gotten a slap in the face for telling her.
I don’t know what kind of weird bets girls do, but guys would bet on the color of the girls’ panties. And once the money is paid, one has to sacrifice oneself to get the answer…
On the other hand, mayhap guys enjoy to look up a girl’s skirt for the same reason the girl would be embarrassed to have what’s underneath shown…

Seriosly!? We've never had anyting like that where I'm living, but then, again, where I'm living most girls prefer to wear jeans, not skirts (Yeah, I'm surronded by tom-boys most of the time [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img])n so we figured out other ways of seeing a girls panties [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/wink.gif[/img]. On the other hand, we kind of did bets like that, but those bets were about how the girl looked beneath all clothes ^^;

I don't think so! Besides, why bother! ^_^;;;
LOL!! Geez, what are you all doing to me?! I couldn’t help to laugh at almost everything post i’ve just read here. You are all tempting me to say so much dirty things that i don’t think i could say here
About that “men thinking about sex every 3 seconds”… I’ve read that somewhere too. I’m not like that but, i have a friend that IS like that… Don’t ask unless you wanna know
Now i’m a huge leg, thighs, and panties fetish guy. Seriously i have very very little interest in breasts, but i don’t like large ones ^^; Pretty much for me it’s the material, color, shape (as in if she has shaved or not), and uh, how smooth he legs are… You know, i have NO CLUE why i like this. I guess it has to do with what “ekylo”, “kano2k5”, “tabris17”, and “ladyphoenix” said. Plus I like to see girls get embarrased and blush cause of me XD
