When you are out and about, do you ever not wear underwear?

Asked by alive (2953points) March 17th, 2009

of course you take them off to shower, go to the bathroom, have sex, sleep naked in bed, and etc.

but do you ever not wear underwear when you are going to work, going to the grocery store, going to the park, going to a social function, or just going out in public in general?

never? sometimes? always?

why or why not?

Sometimes I don’t.

I used to live right in downtown Santa Cruz. We would get stoned (or just be really tired) and want a burrito from the place a block away. Or fries from the burger joint or candy from 7–11. Basically we’d all be too lazy to change into anything else than what we were already wearing. So, I’d usually be sans bra and sans panties.

Nope. I cannot overcome the “what happens if you are in an accident and they see there is a hole in your underwear” training instilled by my mother.

No underwear? Shocking.~

I love the poem Underwear by Lawrence Ferlinghetti.

Excerpt:

“Underwear on clothesline a great flag of freedom
Someone has escaped his Underwear
May be naked somewhere
Help!”

Occasionally. Just a function of pure laziness.

I like the Bare Naked Ladies song Pinch Me where they say:

On an evening such as this
It’s hard to tell if I exist
If I pack the car and leave this town
who’ll notice that I’m not around?
*I could hide out under there
I just made you say ‘underwear’
I could leave but I’ll just stay
All my stuff’s here anyway

I’ve never liked em, and now that I’m old enough to decide for myself…
I vote for freedom!

My husband just recently started wearing underwear to bed. I think it looks sexy on him, that’s the only way I got him to wear it lol.
I almost always wear it. I used to never wear it, but I got pregnant and there are just things about pregnancy I never knew about. I’m sure other ladies know what I’m talking about. But you HAVE to wear underwear lol.
I guess if it’s all dirty, I wouldn’t wear any. But, I’m usually on top of the laundry.

My underwear wearing habits are purely whether or not i’ve done the laundry before I ran out.

95% of the time.

I went without it for a day once just for the experience. It was strange.

@marina
I just reread it, oops, you’re right. Ha! Necked!

@aviona I think the term “going commando” means being prepared for anything, as in opportunistic sex.

humanpaul's avatar

I always wear underwear when i’m out. I’d feel exposed if i didn’t wear any, even though my private parts are hidden by my jeans or trousers.
