I was 21 in 1985 and was unaware of the whole concept of lube, though I was familiar with spermicidal gel.
I bet mileage varies here for gay men, though. :) (I was 11 and probably did not know about it.)
Jeans had no stretch, zero. So they were loose enough in the leg that when you unfastened them, they pretty much just fell to the ground.
On skinny teenage boys, sure. As someone with a small waist and big butt, I have never had this problem in jeans, spandex or no spandex. :) On the other hand, I remember pleated fronts on pants (if not heavy jeans) as an option for women a couple of years later.
(Additionally: I forget when super-tapered legs on jeans came in, if it wasn't 1985 it wasn't much later.)
You can go right on imagining these guys in boxer-briefs if you like, but I promise you they were wearing white Jockeys.
I had never heard of these until I started reading fanfic and got someone to explain. :)
