Not a pretty picture for me OR the neighbors. I have a couple of bathrobes for this. One is a thick terry cloth robe, and the other is a thin jersey robe. Honestly, though, if the house is on fire I’m gonna grab the cats and not worry about scandalizing the neighbors. ---

I don’t wear a bra but I do wear underwear. I work out first thing in the morning, so to me it doesn’t make sense to put on a fresh pair of undies that I’m just going to get all sweaty in an hour’s time and then have to put on another fresh pair after my shower. So, I do it to save on laundry, I suppose. However, if I do happen to be gettin busy in the middle of the night, I generally won’t put them back on to go back to sleep. ---

That’s why I always go commando to the gym! Feels good _and_ saves on undies. ---

I have notices quite number of girls and sometimes women also wearing panties underneath their pajama or nighties. Because materials of those night dresses are thin, we can easily see panties under under them. Even we can see colour and design, if any, of those panties. Sometimes most of them may remove their panties when they really go to bed and may be putting panties on again when they are up in the morning. Then they are in their nighties or pajama with panties underneath in the morning until they change to another dress after washing. Cyril Perera ---

I’m not seeing this as a burning question of our time, and as an old thread, or zombie, as we like to say, I’m closing it. Anyone who feels the need to explore the topic more may open a new thread.
