Do you go Commando?

[Miss_Bella_Hell]

I don't like tap pants either for the same reason I don't like shorts...they get eaten by my thighs! lol My bum isn't the offender, my thighs are.

I haven't ever gone commando but maybe I should try it

I love french knickers I wear them almost every day. And they fit very well with a girdle.

 

[Miss Brill]

Every day. I cannot stand underpants. I like pettipants, and I like stretchy pants liners, but I loathe traditional underwear (I have a lot of thongs, and I rarely wear them, but I like them more than a full-seat).

What are tap pants?

The only time I've gone commando was, like a lot of the ladies, when I was doing ballet, and wearing tights and a leotard. When I stopped ballet and took up tap we didn't have a uniform so I'd wear black leggings and a t-shirt and undies underneath I can't stand the thought of 'thongs' (funnily enough in Australia that's the name we give to 'flip flops'!), having a narrow strip of material giving you a permanent wedgie sounds awful and they're just a bacteria magnet. I've had a lot of success with seamless and 'line free' underwear made of thin fabric with no stitching at the edges, but luckily I'm not a fan of silk bias cut dresses.

I went commando for the first time at the QM (scandalous, I know!). I had gotten a few pairs of vintage tap pants, and so I wore one over my girdle. It was AMAZING. As silly as it sounds, it was so much more comfortable and worry-free than having ******* under my girdle.

Going to the bathroom was only a 5 minute affair instead of a 15 minute too! However, i did unhook my back garters and pull up the back of my girdle because I was terrified I'd pee on myself otherwise.

Oh, I'm runnning out of clean underwear today! The thing is, in my appartment building we have a community laundry room, and therer is this old, angry man who is a self-appointed laundry police. He shows up everey time I do the laundry, telling me that I'm doing it wrong. So I have been putting of the laundry to long.

So then I need to handwash something. I have tried the commando thing, but I don't like it. It feels to exposed, and I get the feeling that somehow I will fall or rip my clothes or experience another freak accident that will expose me!

A couple of years ago, I was wearing split-crotch bloomers for my 1860s costume. (At a LARP, kind of reenacting.) And I couldn't dare wearing those without knickers underneath. I kept imagining that I would trip and fall, and then my skirt and my petticoat would get thrown over my head in the fall, and I would lay there in an akward postition with my legs apart and then it would be terribly akward!

I know, the chances for that happening is not great. But all the same, I wore thongs under my split-bloomers, thus completely ruining the intended easier-to-use-the-loo-effect.

Well, I'm of to handwash some thongs!

The only time I've ever gone commando was reenacting. Whoever mentioned it before is right, ******* and corsets just don't go together! As for ballet, we all wore flesh colored camisole strapped leotards underneath our tights and uniform leotards. I considered these my ballet underwear.

Ahh, I getcha. Thanks Josephine

(I don't know if I could wear them though. I like my cotton undies too much!)

 

[PolkaDotMeggie]

I have never gone without danties in public. If I didn't have my wobbly bits to worry about then I probably would try it! Doesn't any one else worry about having a less than firm behind and have it be noticeable? Or is it just me? And as for the *****-line issue.... if an outfit was so tight/silky/slinky to show a ***** line... I probably wouldn't wear it! Plus wearing undies helps eliminate the "accidental" camel toe incidents we see on celebrity TV shows.

Forgive me for asking, but a just can't let go: "********-insident". Is that what I think? Let me try to put it delicately: Is it when wearing very thight trousers, womens most private parts is outlined, looking a bit like a camel toe? I'm only guessing, so please answer me. I got curious, and if it is what I think it is such an amusing expression!

 

[Miss Brill]

I think CT has more to do with the pants than the lack of underwear. I know, because when I wear Old navy jeans I get one, and in all my others, I don't.

 

[Sunland Sare]

the first and only time I have gone commando, I was caught out!


I organised a christmas party when I was in college for the students, and had an unforgiving silk dress on, hence the need for a lack of undies.

I had booked a ***y Mrs Claus to hand out gifts, unfortunatly, she got the address wrong and I had to don a spare Santa coat that happened to be lying around and dish out gifts to drunken college students, with no undercrackers!!

the only thing is, the Santa coat had no buttons/zip/belt, so I had to secure it (badly) with hair grips. needless to say, I had one or two "wardrobe malfunctions"


never again!!

I had no other way to describe it.... I am glad I didn't offend anyone because that is exactly what I was refering to. I would be afraid that if I wore unforgiving fabric (silky and slinky) and didn't wear any undies, I would risk being indecent in one manner or another. But maybe I am too insecure and should just go without them for once and then feel liberated?!

You could be very correct. You see my point though :eusa_doh:

Never. Wearing lovely delicates is such a pleasure and a luxury... why would anyone not do it? The only time I don't wear them is if I'm wearing a ***** girdle. With open bottomed girdles, I just wear thongs to minimize lines.
