h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Some men and women go out without wearing knickers/underpants under their dress or trousers. It is known as going commando. Do any people on h2g2 go commando?

hmm

i dont wear dresses though..

why do you need to know this anyway?

it's explained in the "going commando?" thread methinks....

When I am in a rush in the morning to go out than that's when I do not wear any underwear or when I cannot find them in time.

It is more hygenic to go without any briefs.

Also depends on how cold it is for me. Sometimes I just where my long Janes on without any briefs. It also depends what mood I am in.

i just think theyre bloody uncomfortable n shouldnt be worn unless absolutely necessary..or your wearing a short skirt /dress

I am wear mainly jeans sometimes I wear dresses or skirts. I only wear in order to make my tummy flat but they get very uncomfortable after a time.

i do find i dont get cystitis n thrush anymore since i gave up knickers..

havent worn a skirt in ages..i used to live in them..

also if you have vulval vestibulitis, its too painful to wear any

that asnt what made me give em up..( hope its still improving) but i had a different prob that made it uncomfortable/sometimes painful ..n found the other stuff was added bennefits.

also when I lived in plymouth, I was a nudist, and just couldn't wear close-fitting stuff anymore. The vv just meant they stay off for extra reasons too.

There are times to wear, and times not to. Going commando is, I think something blokes really shouldn't do - we're an unpleasant enough lot as it is. Ladies on the other hand...

Best not go there while I'm on premod, eh?

This is one of those "too much information" threads...

Amen to that!

I had no idea knickers were so bad for your health!

H.

no its not, when you have an obscure disease its good to mention it in suitable places. Now anybody else who has vulvul vestibulitis and felt pain from wearing undies but was embarrassed to go without, now knows that they are not the only one, and need not feel embarrassed anymore.

I don't wear 'em. Washing's bad enough as it is, why make more of it?

Feels nice, less washing, go commando today.

Kaz, you don't like me anyway, so you were bound to be contrary.

I'd find it a little uncomfortable to go commando. Not to mention unhygienic when *that* time of the month comes around.

If you wear pure cotton underwear, you are less likely to get infections and the etc. However, if you wear synthetic materials, then because they don't *breathe* then they clog up all the necessary parts of you.

I thought everyone knew this?

For men, providing the trousers are loose and clean every day, I don't see any problem. I've done it a few times, especially in the summer.

The only things I discovered were a certain amount of *friction* (which could be good or bad) and a need to avoid jogging.....
