Originally Posted By RoadTrip Cool. Underwear is so vital yet it typically receives so little discussion. It is a part of our daily routine, yet we seem to hide it so. People frequently have a "socks drawer", but do you hear them mention an "underwear drawer" very often? And how about the occasions when those two types of clothing are found in ONE drawer? Have you ever heard anyone refer to an "Underwear and Socks" drawer? No. It is ALWAYS the "Socks and Underwear" drawer. Why do you think that is? I really feel that underwear needs to come out of the closet so to speak and take its rightful place alongside the other things we wear. What garment provides the wide range of uses that underwear does? Whether it is warmth, hygiene, sexual attraction, or just to keep the skid marks off your jeans, underwear serves a vital function day after day for all of us. It is about time that underwear got the respect it deserves.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip I've never had boiled custard, but I will support you in giving it the respect it deserves. Yea, skidmarks are gross but they occasionally happen. And isn't much better if they are confined to underwear rather than being deposited upon clothing that many people may come in contact with?? It is just that hygienic function which to me makes underwear so vital. Don't you agree?

Originally Posted By RoadTrip I can certainly agree with that. Let's just settle on the fact that underwear performs a valuable hygienic function and leave it at that. OK?? ;-)
Originally Posted By chickendumpling Sounds good to me. Who would create such a kooky thread like this anyway? A thread about "underwear" really. lol. What exactly are we supposed to talk about in here anyway?
Originally Posted By RoadTrip Favorite types of underwear might be a good start. On women, I think the bikini brief is the classic style of underwear and undoubtedly that which I enjoy most. I don't find thongs terribly attractive. The old hygiene thing again you know... ;-) Plus, things seem a lot more desirable when there is a bit of mystery to them. Thongs don't leave much room for mystery. Or anything else.

Originally Posted By RoadTrip <<Hey Trippy...I'm watchin' a woman get fitted for a bra...and gettin' paid to do so.

She worked in the lingerie department and one of her duties was to assist women with selecting the proper bra size. From what my wife said, most women seeking such assistance were older women trying to fit a sagging three-pound breast into a two-pound bra. Somehow the sweet young things with perky breasts never seemed to require any assistance. Not that there is anything wrong with large sagging breasts. Just that the job didn't seem to be quite the treat that I thought it might be.

On Friday nights I monitor "What Not to Wear" on TLC, and tonight's subject was an outspoken gal from San Francisco with very, um, large "gal pals" if ya get muh drift...I think this is the 5th bra fitting I've seen. But they do these makeovers in NYC. Maybe that's where ya need to go to to get the "prime candidates", lol.
Originally Posted By bloona under wear....I like to wear it most days! no, kidding, just Fridays I dont bother. no still kidding it's Wednesdays. lol. yes, I am sober.
Originally Posted By bubsmom Such a delicate topic needs to be addressed with respect and dignity, wouldn't you agree? : ) Why the word...Underwear? Didn't underwear once mean, all garments under one's clothing? Such as, tshirts, (once known as undershirts) slips, , etc? Interesting that underwear now just means...underwear. Even more interesting; that I'm on this thread discussing underwear! : )
Originally Posted By RoadTrip <<it's Wednesdays. lol. yes, I am sober.>> So what do you do on Saturdays?? Me?? Today was just too hot for my usual boxer briefs. Tonight I have on traditional briefs that are forest green in color. I think underwear is really interesting!! Such an important part of everyone's wardrobe yet no one ever talks about it!!

Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Sorry, chickie. Much as I love you, I shall have to wait for Candice's verdict as I consider her the supreme authority on everything. I'd just Google it, but Google has *nothing* on Candice, ya know.
Originally Posted By chickendumpling I understand totally. I will of course defer to Candice. And no need to apologize t'all - I hadn't even gotten my shorts in a twist about it.
