To ask you about your partner's pants

TheTwirlyPoos · 2024-11-20T21:53:39+00:00

Right. DH has asked me to ask this Does you DH/ partner whatever go commando when they are in normal everyday clothes? YABU - yes they do and it's normal YANBU - no that's odd Totally lighthearted!

Started going full time commando about 4 years ago after a series of uncomfortable episodes. After a while I couldn't believe I had wasted my life in Pants!!!! DW wife recently joined me full time and weve never looked back 😊

My DP has gone commando ever since he was at Uni. I don’t think he even owns a pair any more 😂.

This thread is peak mumsnet.

Epic "argument in a phone box with no change" energy.

It's mental.

I love it.

I don't have a problem with people who don't wear underwear particularly, but it's definitely not 'the norm'.

My partner has never had vaginal secretions (do you think there may be something wrong with him?), mine stopped after my hysterectomy. Both of us, amazingly, are adept at using toilet paper. Phew.

I am admiring of your skill - no urine drips? - ever?

Dillydollydingdong · 23/11/2024 12:13

Mine doesn't. He likes all to be safely gathered in.

Gosh - people with no vaginal secretions or urine drips - how very freaky!

My DH wears pants but still puts his trousers in the wash every day 🙄

He sounds like a clean person.

Neither of us wear underwear, ever, unless going to the doctor (weirdly). At the age of 60 and 70 respectively, we figured out how to use loo paper many years ago.

Erm.. unless you have a little person in your knickers constantly wiping you, there will be leakage.

OrlandointheWilderness · 23/11/2024 07:04

No pants all round here. But we both sleep naked. I don't have pubes and I never find his..! 😂

BilboBlaggin · 23/11/2024 06:53

My late DH always wore boxers. Those skid marks some men like to leave behind would surely be on their trousers instead. If they're not good at shaking off all moisture after a wee, then they'll have droplets of that building up too - yuk!

TinkerTiger · 23/11/2024 06:49

This is so enormously gratifying.

I bet it is

He always weara underwear, it would be obscene if he didn’t, I guess some men who are growers rather than showers can get away with it.

EBearhug · 23/11/2024 00:11

I wash my clothes regularly, just not after every wear, unless they've got muddy or something. Mostly they're fine if they're aired. I mostly wear natural fibres, which I think makes a difference. i think artificial fabrics carry smells more.

Do you seriously think I am the only one on this thread who disagrees with you??

Did you miss my earlier post where, in the country I live in, we are actively encouraged to wash our clothes less. Washing your trousers/bottoms every single time you wear them is absolute madness. As for washing clothing because there is a bit of pet hair on it, or contact with public services???? I think you have a problem.

No, lots of people have insisted it's gross but could also not provide irrefutable reasons why. Like you, some are still doubling down.

My clothing will still smell and be dirty regardless of whether I wear underpants or not. I'm going to keep washing them between wears.

I don't know why people are acting like I'm the one who's being gross for washing my clothes regularly.

RockyFowlboa · 22/11/2024 21:47

It only logically follows that:

if trouser/bottoms get dirty with every wear (sweat, dirt, pet hair, contact with public surfaces, etc.), regardless of whether you wear underpants
and you properly wash your trousers/bottoms between wears
and your trousers/bottoms cover all your bits
then it is not gross or unseemly to not wear underpants (unless your vaginal secretions are saturating the fabric, in which case, you should be using a sanitary pad.)

Where am I losing you?

Oh that's rich. The majority of people disagree with you - but you are the one who is right. Okay then .........

I've had many of my clothes for over a decade. I don't know if you guys aren't sweating/stinking/coming into contact with dirt and pet hair on a daily basis, but even if I did wear underwear... I would still wash my bottoms between wears.

Show quote history

I have pets and get fur on my clothes sometimes, but it brushes off easily enough. I change and wash my outer clothes whenever they get sweaty or have something spilt on them, but t doesn't happen all that often. Mostly in very hot weather, or after a long walk.
So long as they smell fresh and look clean, they don't need washing.

I'm perfectly fine with disagreement; it's just that none of you are making sense.

Sorry, but that is totally unnecessary. I'm not in the UK but we have notifications on TV here about washing clothing less, especially jeans. They don't need to be washed after every wear - unless you are not wearing underwear. Honestly, no wonder the planet is in the state it is!

DH would be horrified by this idea!

As would have been my exDH!
