Do you wear knickers under pyjamas

And why?
spent the night away with some friends and noticed that they did. I understand if you wear knickers instead of pyjamas although I tend to go alfresco.
so unless you’re wearing a pad maybe, why would you?

Yes. Because they have that gusset but whereas pj bottoms dig in.

Aworldofmyown · 13/11/2022 11:39

No.

TwinMum89 · 13/11/2022 11:39

I do. Always have done. Maybe I wouldn’t if I put my pyjamas on just before bed but I’m usually in my pyjamas before then!

Changingplace · 13/11/2022 11:41

Yes, because I put clean knickers on every day but will wear pjs a couple of times, if I didn’t then I’d wash my pjs after every wear.

allthecrooksandnannies · 13/11/2022 11:41

Yes! I absolutely hate the feeling of pyjamas with no knickers. I can’t explain why but I just do.

SpeedwellPurple · 13/11/2022 11:41

Yes

Because my pyjama bottoms don't get washed every day

dementedpixie · 13/11/2022 11:41

I dont wear pants or pyjamas tbh
If I did wear pyjamas I wouldn't wear underwear too

Olivetreebutter · 13/11/2022 11:41

I do, mainly because I do when on my period and I couldn't cope with the difference in sensation between times of the month. Easier to have it the same all month round.

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 13/11/2022 11:42

Either knickers or PJs (or neither) but never both.

StampOnTheGround · 13/11/2022 11:43

Yes, I didn't know not wearing pants with pyjamas was a thing??

NuffSaidSam · 13/11/2022 11:44

Generally, no.

Sometimes yes.

ElleBelleLou · 13/11/2022 11:46

If I'm on my period then of course yes, otherwise no - I couldn't imagine it! Though I very rarely wear pyjamas, I sleep best nude. Which isn't ideal when I'm refusing to put my heating on 🤣

NewYorkLassie · 13/11/2022 11:46

i can’t even begin to think about the extra washing if I didn’t wear pants under PJs and had to wash a pair a day.

Bluebellbike · 13/11/2022 11:46

If I get changed into pyjamas in the evening I leave my knickers on. When I go to bed I take off the pyjama trousers and the knickers and sleep in just the pyjama top. I don't like knickers or pyjama trousers in bed. In the morning I put the knickers and pyjama top back on unless I am having a shower straight away. I usually have breakfast before my shower though.

username8888 · 13/11/2022 11:50

Just wear clean pants and a t shirt in bed. Pyjama bottoms get tangled round when I turn over and nighties just ride up. Can't abide nude sleeping unless I showered before bed every night and I prefer morning showers. The thought of the bedding rubbing against my bits feels dirty.

SuperCamp · 13/11/2022 11:51

No, that would be far too much clothing, all ruckled up.

Mostly a sleep naked and just put pyjamas or nightshirt on when I start pottering around in the morning.

cookiecreammmpie · 13/11/2022 11:51

Yes I do. Maybe your friends kept their knickers on because they didn't feel comfortable taking them off in front of others.

Hobnobsandbroomstick · 13/11/2022 11:51

spent the night away with some friends and noticed that they did.

...sorry, not what you asked, but how did you notice this? I don't think I've ever noticed if someone else is wearing pants or not under their pyjama bottoms 🤣.

PinkButtercups · 13/11/2022 11:54

Depends what pjs I'm wearing. Some can ride up my butt crack and I don't like the feeling off my clothes stuck to my crack tbh.

PinkButtercups · 13/11/2022 11:54

OF not off*

Sparklingbrook · 13/11/2022 11:59

Oooh is it time for this again? Have we had 'let your fanjo breathe' yet?

I don't because I don't wear pyjamas. Grin

Were you closely studying your friends' bums?

I do. The pj seams end up in an uncomfortable place if I don't.

Alwayswonderedwhy · 13/11/2022 12:02

Yes because I wear my PJs for a few nights before washing them.

Sparklingbrook · 13/11/2022 12:02

Oh please
