A poll: Rewearing undies?

Some Norwegians don’t mind recycling their undies:

**<shudder>

As for myself, never.

See, I think this is a question of what bothers you more. I cannot stand to go without underwear; I HATE the feeling of not having any on. So wearing yesterday’s, or (preferably) washing a pair out in the sink is WAY better than going commando.

So that’s why it’s called a briefcase! :smiley:

:rimshot:

Note to self: Never date a Norwegian! GACK!!

Since the OP said due to laziness, my answer would be never. I’d rather do laundry than wear dirty underwear. Of course, if I’m home, I don’t wear any.

Should I happen to wind up spending the night somewhere, unexpectedly, and don’t have any clean underwear, I might. It would depend on what pants I was wearing.

Second Note to self: Return some of poor Audrey’s panties, ASAP.

I have enough pairs to last me a couple of weeks, so I don’t worry about that. (Yes, I own a lot of underpants)

However, my roommate has no issue whatsoever with rewearing. To him, if he showers in the morning, puts on a fresh pair, works all day at his desk job, comes home, and doesn’t go out again for the night, he will dig that pair out again at the end of the week if he really needs them. However, if he comes home from work, and then goes out to a fire, or paramedic call where he might be sweating like Niagra falls, he will peel that pair off, and throw it right into the washer, and not wear them again until they are clean.

Norway must smell funky sometimes!

:slight_smile:

I do not change my undies specifically for bed, unless I am determined for there to be a little “sumthin’-sumthin’” going on (if I even bother to put on undies, in that case). If I had to take a shower before bed because I was really stinky, then I will change my skivvies, but this is unusual.

However, if they are otherwise OK, I will wear the same undies I had on all day to bed under my jammies - I shower in the morning and will change them then. Unless the aforementioned “sumthin’-sumthin’” has occurred, I very rarely go to bed without wearing underpants.

This is learned behavior, like wearing clean underwear in case you are in an accident. My mother always used to say to me, “You have to wear underpants to bed in case there is a fire and you have to run out of the house in the middle of the night.”

No rewearing of underwear for me. Either clean or commando.

I prefer, strongly, not to reuse underwear, but I will if I have to. I only “have to”, though, when I don’t have any money for a wash because I’ve spent it all on pizza and beer. In that case, I throw on whatever doesn’t run away or scream when I try to put it on, and then go and try to collect donations for the “Mr. Excellent Laundry Fund” postehaste. I help people out with computers and homework a lot, so it usually works.

Boy do I feel gross… I have definitely reworn panties and I will not draw the line at digging through the laundry hamper.

I wear skirts and no stockings so going without is not an option.

Girl checking in. Assuming I had sweatpants/boxers/a skirt I wouldn’t wear underwear with anyway, I’d just go without them for the day.

I agree with you, that is stupid, ToffeeApple. Unless you’ve just taken a shower before bed and just gotten all clean, which makes sense, but barring that, why bother? Personally, I only go to sleep in my underwear if I fall asleep in my clothes, which, admittedly, is most of the time. Otherwise I just wear a big T-shirt to bed.

ToffeeApple, the reason I wear undies to bed is because I need something to catch my feminine juices, lest I wake up with sticky legs. I don’t put on fresh ones for bed unless I’ve just showered like Orange Skinner said, but I do feel more comfy with them on.

I can’t believe I just posted that on a public message board. I hope my brother doesn’t read this.

I shower at night (except on the weekends) so yes, I wear clean panties to bed.

Personally, I don’t like air blowing all on my booty and coochie. I need the security of underwear. Plus, what if there was a fire!

Ditto Chicken Scratch.

Women who don’t feel the need to wear underwear are subject to my envy!

You guys are all nuts, or maybe I’m Norwegian and I don’t know it.

I wear underwear for weeks at a time. I see no problem with it at all.

You know you’re dating the wrong girl if you look through her underwear drawer and instead of seeing the Monday, Tuesday, etc. embroidered underwear, you see January, February…

I do my laundry every week, and I always own at least 12 pairs of panties (right now, it’s 15). I can’t stand the thought of wearing panties that aren’t machine washed.

It depends on if the panties are “dirty” or not. I have, on occasion, reworn panties that are visibly clean.

Now, socks, I wear for days without washing. Gross, I know. For some reason my black socks disappear and I end up with only a couple of pairs. So, in the winter, I wear them over and over again.

Ready for some TMI?

The pair I’m wearing right now is on Day 3.

Only boxers are allowed to go longer than 1 day, though, and only when the laundry situation is dire.

not even Kristanna Loken ???! :dubious:

OK 2 Quick Hijacks:

  1. Why do we need to wear underwear?

  2. Why is a day the “safe” alloted time frame to wear them?

If I take mine off, its replaced. If there arent any, I go Commando!

I considered wearin my wife’s panties once, but that was when I was drunk and feeling kinky.

I will never wear a thong not even as a joke.

I’ve been known to wear a pair until they must be discarded. This leads to foul odors in the crotch area, but people usually don’t start sniffing me down there, so I’m safe.
