This may be a pretty weak rant, maybe more of an MPSIMS or whatever it is. I guess if you have to ask, it isn’t? I love the Super-Low Jeans as much as the next guy. Change is good. They look all right, especially on young people, even the bell bottoms. My 7 year old neice has some and they look so cute on her. But, here’s some fashion advice–If you’re going to go with the Super Low jeans…go with the Super Low Undies!! Please! It doesn’t take a brain scientist or even a Super Model to figure that out. Low pants and high underwear just don’t work! Every time you bend over a bit, down creep the Super Low Jeans and up creep the undies and I don’t really want to see that. It catches my attention and I feel like some kind of perv. Saturday night I’m out bowling and this one womans’ jeans were so low you could see her underwear-in the front!!! Sheesh! Super Low Undies…look into it. ---

Many female dopers will read this and go “undies???” This much I have learned. Should have kept a list. Super Low Jeans = Commando ---

Whenever I hear people complaining about fashion I wish to point out one important thing: Picture this, a nice warm sunny beach in the south of france. Drinking a good bottle of wine the way god intended, directly from the bottle watching the beautiful women walk by in various stages of undress. Now picture the 50 year old guy with his pale, flabby hair body wearing basically butt floss. Compaired to this image any fashion snafu is of no consquence. ---

Perhaps I am alone in this, but I shall step bravely forward and state it right now: properly done, in the right setting, the correct display of the right piece of female underwear can be quite sexy. It’s not for every situation, but, hey, variety is the spice of life. ---

Smelly nasty rental shoes, nasty old men drunk and bowling does not equal a place to scope out women showing off what colour panties they wear. Btw why the hell do we call them panties? Why do we have a female term for underwear and a unisex term!? Damnit I want my male underwear word thingy… god i need more tequila ---

perhaps if you saw their underwear, you could gain further insight into that person… or maybe you’d just know what brand they wore… ---

male undies = jockeys / boxers ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by saepiroth \* > \*\*male undies = jockeys / boxers \*\* I vaguely remember seeing an add for jockey’s for women. And women wear boxers fairly commonly. There is a whole taboo thing associated with men wearing panties. Damnit I want my word for my underwear that has the equivelent taboo for females. Ok I’m confusing myself. ---

the other day I was shopping with mother (yikes!) - you know the post-Thanksgiving rituals, anyway in front of us was a cute teenage girl wearing low jeans which revealed the top of the black thong underneath. My mom elbowed me and whispered “I wonder if that girl knows her panties are showing?.. hehehe” (She hasn’t kept up with the fashions these kids have today) I replied " Well you see thats the style…" She looked at me like I was putting her on. “Well if it is its trashy” “Yes Mom it is…I’m going over to look at the footwear - bye!” ---

I kind of like the look. Obviously, you don’t want to wear granny underwear with them, but a little sneak-a-peak of the right stuff can be quite tantalizing (IMHO). Someone else I know wears them because they let her eat more at dinner. A jeans for all occaisions! 🙂 ---

Course, if the underwear is too low, then ya got a case of Plumber’s Crack going… I think this is a devolopment of the popularity of Victoria’s Secret…People wanna show off their nice undies… Guys have been doing this for years…even to the point of wearing their jeans with the waistline at their crotch and tucking their shirts into their boxers… ---
