To want to know how to put knickers on properly?

[HoneyDragon]

I'm FOREVER putting holes in mine when I put them on.

How do I not do this?

Whether Lycra or cotton,
You've somehow forgotten,

To gently lift and never tear,
The lovely knickers that you wear.

To keep them in good working condition,
You don't have to be a magician,

You just need to take a minute,
Take a breath and then begin it,

Sit quietly on a bed or seat,
And slowly, calmly, insert your feet,

Don't rush, or pull or twist or shove,
Just treat your delicates with love.

Up, up and over your knees,
(which are nicer than the bees)

And don't rush now, it's not a race,
Especially if they're made of lace

So to save your precious underwear,
Take your time and handle with care,

And read this thread, and heed the warnings,
But enjoy putting them on in the mornings!

It happened to my jeans last week but that's because they're second-hand jeans (from the charity shop) and the fabric is quite stretchy. and I'm a bit of a porker and have probably overstreched them

I have done this with sloggies more times than I would like to count. I love sloggies though but I do think they are not the quality that they used to be 😫

3luckystars A round of applause. Brava!

3luckystars ....well that's going on the wall

Thank you. I only said it as a joke but then i had to do it. I hope everyone else writes one too.
But nothing really rhymes with gusset so it's not easy.

I buy Tesco knicks, so not even a brand like sloggi or even m&s ones and I have never put holes in them

Are you buying a size too small so you're forcing them on?!

Nope. Size 10 me size 10 knickers

Gather one leg hole bunched in fists. Insert over foot.

Pull other leg hole outwards with one hand, thumb hooked through on the inside. Put other foot in.

Pull knickers up, with thumbs onninside and fingers on outside. No nail things going on.

And OP, they're not false?

HoneyDragon breaks her knicks
HoneyDragon is in a fix
She puts her thumb through
Which is not so helpful
When all she wants is to hide her bits!

the poet laureate, yeah that's me

You need to find use for these super strength fingers and thumbs you have

I have never done this and I am very clumsy

Spanx or similar knickers uncomfortable to wear all day but you can't possibly put your fingers through these

With nails that long I'm not surprised you have holes in your pants!

Are they strong, sharp nails? Because they won't bend and that will guarantee they go straight through the fabric.

They aren't that long. My nail beds are that's what makes them look long iykwim?

Fuck sake HoneyDragon i read this earlier and wondered wtf youre doing, then just went for a pee and saw this!! Youve jinxed my gid 15 year old marks and sparks ffs

Bucky?
You may want to not use your left hand...

I have very very strong nails (I'll take a picture later, I'm in bed with DH and I can't be bothered to explain), and a very fat arse. I'm yet to go through a pair of knickers.

How is my fault .... I don't think knicker popping is a contagion you can catch via the web

If you're putting holes in your knickers getting dressed, be careful when wiping the worst part is I'm half joking, half not

Thats not true Honey, its clearly infectious!

I would really love to know what pickles means but fear I'd rather not know

I had a pair of sloggis tear nearly ten years after I bought them. They shouldn't be tearing due to your nails or acidic vaginal discharge or thigh rubbing.

Youre being too rough when you pull them up then surely

Well, it's certainly not my nails as they are always quite short. It's the fabric they use now. It's much thinner than it used to be. It's all right for a while, but gradually it seems to lose its softness and pliability and then it is very easily holed.

Of course it's not in Sloggi's interest for their knickers to last for ever. They need us to keep buying more.

Another one who thinks sloggi aren't what they used to be

You need fortified knickers. Leather or chainmail.
