A look through the base game clothes gave me the impression that Maxis really didn't like men -- especially not fat men. Despite the athletic shape to the male sim body, there is only a small handful outfits (aside from the briefs) that don't look poorly tailored and a few sizes too big, and one of those outfits is the male maid outfit. The fat men get it even worse; they look like a sack of potatoes with sticks stuck in no matter what they are, or are not, wearing.
I've decided to fix that, starting by reshaping the TM & AM fat morphs based on the same idea that governs the female fat morph: the fit morph plus padding over top. I'm also reshaping the fit morphs so that the clothes look properly tailored and adding preg morphs to appropriate outfits. The beauty of the reshaping of the fat morph is that the new top will still fit any bottoms you have that are fat morphed (when I get to the tops, that is :D).
These are MESH replacements: you will have to take out any other mesh replacements you might have for the same outfits. However, they get along just fine with TEXTURE ONLY replacements!
CAVEAT: I'm not reshaping all base game outfits, only ones I feel are worth salvaging.
Pt 1. Set includes AM&TM nude, briefs, tank+boxers, boxers, pajama pants, and TM swim trunks. All AM meshes have preg morphs. Also included are TM conversions of the AM briefs and pajama pants. These are properly proportioned for the teen body, and draw their textures from the game files and will pick up any default replacement textures you are using.

AM briefs (ambodyunderwear)
'Filled out' the bumcrack so underwear don't look painted on. Also gave the fit morph a bit of a *ahem* bulge, as guys are just going to have one in underwear that close fitting.
(Recommended default replacement textures: Peggster's defaults of Amaryll's textures | Oph3lia's defaults of Nouk and Fanseelamb's textures)
Tanktop and boxers (ambodypajamasboxers & tmbodypajamasboxers)
Tank is more fitted, boxers are proper boxer length. There is some texture distortion that I couldn't fix because the mapping on the boxers is BIZARRE.
(Recommended default replacement textures: Anna's Basegame undies)
Boxers (ambodyshorts & tmbodyshorts)
The boxers are shorted to be proper boxer length and are slightly more fitted, with a hint of a manbulge.
TM Swim trunks (tmbodyswimshort)
Better fitting shorts on the fit morph, so they no longer flare out like a skirt.
AM Pajama pants (ambodypajamasdrawstring)
Slimmed up slightly along the hips and lower belly.
