Men may not know what Period Underwear are. I shall explain and enlighten. Period Underwear are what chicks wear when (surprise!) they're on their period. NOTE: they start out as panties, but morph into underwear - PERIOD underwear. A few things can turn panties into Period Underwear. Here are some examples: 1. You're wearing a capable pair of panties and the Monkey Gets a Nosebleed. It leaves an awful stain on the panties, which USUALLY can't be removed, rendering them Period Underwear 2. They're older panties, no longer favorites and you'd never wear them if there was a possibility you were getting laid, so you feel comfortable wearing them when Aunt Flo Comes to Visit, demoting them to Period Underwear status 3. They're granny panties, you can't remember why you have them and you pretty much only wear them when you're home sick, or just plain suffering from the pain and bloat of being OTR because they're really comfy and never ride up so they're by default Period Underwear 4. These are nice panties, something you'll wear even if you're NOT Surfing the Crimson Flow and you're not at all afraid to be seen in them but they're dark colored (black, navy, red), thereby making them both Non-Period Panties and Period Underwear That should do it! So men, now you know one of our dirty little secrets. If you see us in items #1 - #3, consider it notice that George is in Town. How you handle that knowledge is your affair, I'm just here to give you the low-down. If you see us in item #4, things could go either way, proceed as you wish.
i found this thread strange. i wear thongs simply because of VPL, not for any silly reasons. but at period time wear panties (bikini style).
I was once a history geek, so I immediately thought of renaissance or Victorian undergarments.... some gals only wear underthings when it is that time. even keepers leak on occasion, and you just want to be SURE. My first set of cloth pads was "no underwear style." Meaning they came with this elastic belt a la pre-sticky toss away pads. i found the elastic more annoying than even crawly underwear, so the elastic got used in a project and i fold over the long pads.
i don`t think she was talking about the equivalent to what babies wear. just what kinds of underwear are used at `that time of the month`.
Haha! So true. My hub's always trying to get rid of certain things in my undie drawer and I have to keep explaining the concept of period underwear to him.
I apologize if I offended. I thought it was hillarious. Who's gonna laugh at your period if you can't-well besides your boyfriend until you go ape shit pms on him? ok...that prob offended you further-sorry
i kick mine behind the bed ...and then my bf lost his glasses or something i come home and all of my period underwear from the past few months are on the bedroom floor-spread out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could have died-i mean DIED from embarassment. i could have killed him too, but then quickly realized it is not his fault i have disgusting habits and hide my period underwear. Also, the fact that he wanted to have sex with me right afterwards still made me not mad at all anymore.
Does he try to offer to replace those with nice pretty lingeria, mine did. Guys gotta know every gal needs period undies in her arsenal or else nice undies will inevitably turn into period undies.
i always seem to forget i have period underwear and just wear regular ones and then, BAM! a new pair of period underwear. it is quite frustrating. but this is all very very true. i even have a seperate drawer for them.
dont forget there are also the underwear that has gotten holey and torn. its not stained from accidentally wearing it when you should ahve Period Underwear on, but it gets demoted to Period Underwear because you no longer feel pretty in it
