to go commando whilst wearing jeans

Had some low cut jeans on yesterday.

SIL said 'how do you wear those without your knickers showing over the top'

Me: 'don't wear knickers'

SIL: Shock HOW can you go commando.

She was seriously shocked that I didn't wear knickers. I said how the bloody hell can you - skinny jeans so a VPL would show, if you wore a g string it would peek out over the top and look horrible.

She made me feel a complete bohemian.

Marantha - do you double up said tights as dog leads, or lassoos for catching squirrels, or something Grin

Mind you in saying that I have used old stockings as hair bobbles, so who the fuck am I to take the piss? Grin

Free bleeding - there have been threads about it before... I just don't see how you can do it without leaving a calling card??

Poledra · 11/08/2010 14:57

The tights have not yet been made that can be pulled over my chest - unless they're like Mrs Large's tights

marantha · 11/08/2010 14:53

I like the ones you can actually pull up OVER your chest.

AnyFucker · 11/08/2010 14:51

my tights are chest-warmers too

marantha · 11/08/2010 14:48

Suspender belt?! Suspender belt?! Nice pair of belly-hugging tights for me, I'm afraid.

Lol at free bleeding madness.

God knows about commandos - I think going commando is so called because it means you're 'Ready for action' Grin

Wrong shaped bum?? Is there a right shape? < ponders as looks in the mirror>

MinnieMummy · 11/08/2010 14:42

Apologies for the free bleeding randomness earlier, looking back I have no idea where I got that idea from at all!

I once put my knickers on back to front and didn't realise until lunchtime. I put them on the right way and they were way more uncomfortable - no idea what that says about my body shape Hmm. I'm in the 'can't even consider going commando' brigade - even when wearing pyjamas Blush.

Tangent - do commandos actually go commando?? Or is it a slur??

Marantha, I think I love you, you daft apeth Grin

What secondary uses do you have for a suspender belt? Spanx? Jock Strap?

Grin at pussy hammock

I thought that's what thongs were < ahem >

marantha · 11/08/2010 14:28

When my little pussies were teeny-weeny kittens, I used to use it as a makeshift hammock for the pair of them.

Cycling sans knickers is the only way to go, that's what the pro's do.

marantha · 11/08/2010 14:25

Hey, if you think the knickers incident is strange, you really don't want to know what I do with my bra.

mittz · 11/08/2010 14:14

Like Upahill I was commando when I was involved in (cycling) accident. BiscuitBlush. My mum thought a pervy consultant had knicked them Grin.

I hate knickers. I have the wrong shaped bum for any knickers. I have some and do if I am wearing skinnies but 'tis tres liberating.

moomoo1967 · 11/08/2010 14:03

oooh thank you so much for this thread, it has really cheered up my day and was just what I needed Grin

lol of all the questions I have been asked on MN (or real life for that matter) 'do you wear knickers on your head?'

Grin lolol

NO, Marantha, I don't. Bless you, though, you can share in Suwoo's trophy for nutter of the thread true confessions Grin

GetOrfMoiLand Do you wear your knickers on you head instead? I used to do this for years (in private of course) to keep the hair off my face when cleaning etc. I stopped when I realised I'd gone to Sainsbury's one day with them still on by mistake.
I've since bought a hairband and use that instead now.

G-strings/thongs. NOT hygienic- better full briefs or nothing at all I say.
