I have been known to do it, if the tights have a saggy gusset. Nowt worse than a saggy gusset IMO

Why? Do you carry a mirror with you so that you can drop it by their feet bend down and check? I always do. Can't bear saggy gusset

How do you know who is and who isn't unless you follow them into the loo ?

Or have you done a survey ?

I do! It stops then from rolling down.

so one pair of knickers, then tights, then another pair of knickers?

I'm getting thrush just thinking about it.

It's horrible when your tights sort of work their way down until the crotch is midway between your thighs and your knees kind of 'gangsta' style.

But even then, I wouldn't dream of adding more knickers on top.

No, you're having me on. Who does that, and how do you know????

P.S. Maybe it makes for a quicker change into superhero mode?

My mum does! Grin......and pop socks! (although not at the same time as the tights with extra knickers, because that would be even more wrong Hmm)

Extra pants is a sure sign of madness.

I was also surprised by this double-knickeredness.

I never wear tights, if I had to wear a pair I wouldnt wear any knickers at all, just the tights.

In OP's defense there is a thread about this currently thats how they know!

I used to when I was at school, but I also used to wear two pairs of tights to make them more opaque and that gave them a weird swirly pattern!

Not now, not ever, sweaty tuppence!! Confused

Buy tights that are bigger than your size. They will never sag down again.

Never get thrush but then never wear knickers or tights! Just saying if I had to, be no knickers.

What I don't like with tights is the tummy rollover you sometimes get (I mean the tights rolling over, not the tummy- although that can be a problem too Grin)

You never wear knickers FabbyChic? Do you wear jeans ever?
