People have some very strange discussions with their friends

If you want to wear the same pyjamas twice then definitely knickers

Anotherdayanotherpound · 22/11/2025 20:43

You need to say which is unreasonable. Knickers or no knickers. I say definitely knickers or you have to change your PJs constantly

Prelim · 22/11/2025 20:43

Why did it get so heated?!

Doggielovecharlotte · 22/11/2025 20:44

My mum always taught me to “give it some air” so no knickers for me!

Of course we all discuss serious topics such as global warming and politics all the time

No knickers here

JDM625 · 22/11/2025 20:45

No knickers unless on my period.

ohwoaw · 22/11/2025 20:45

Definitely knickers!

FjordCortina · 22/11/2025 20:45

Voted no knickers then realised that I wear a nightdress anyway so it's moot.

CaffeineAndChords · 22/11/2025 20:46

I air it at night, team no knickers!

Strawberries86 · 22/11/2025 20:46

knickerless

MustTryHarderAndHarder · 22/11/2025 20:46

Always knickers otherwise you have to change your pyjamas everyday

swapsicles · 22/11/2025 20:47

Always knickers, stops the pyjama bottom seam riding up in the night!

Lululemonade11 · 22/11/2025 20:48

Knickers but no pyjamas!

happysunr1se · 22/11/2025 20:49

So if u go - no knickers- to let the air get to "it", how come the air can get through PJ's if it couldn't get through knickers and what is the air doing to your butt anyway???

Divebar2021 · 22/11/2025 20:50

OMG knickers and PJ’s ? It must be a major sweat fest.

GingerBeverage · 22/11/2025 20:51

What happens during period bleeding?

Team knickers.

Screamingabdabz · 22/11/2025 20:51

If you want more than one night’s wear out of the pyjama bottoms then definitely knickers on. Plus who wants the seam riding up your jaxie all night? Ugh. No.

DustyMaiden · 22/11/2025 20:51

I don’t know which answer is which. Yes definitely wear knickers unless you wear clean pjs everyday

ohwoaw · 22/11/2025 20:52

Why do you need to air your fanny at night?

ShesTheAlbatross · 22/11/2025 20:52

Only knickers. I hate the way pyjama bottoms twist round my legs when rolling over in bed so I don’t wear them.

If I did I’d probably wear knickers anyway, just so I didn’t have to change pj bottoms every single day.

Sbmpp · 22/11/2025 20:52

I’m from the US and everyone I know wore underwear to bed except for my bff. The reason being you needed to allow your bottom parts to get air. Seriously??? If you put pj’s on then where is the airflow? (Sorry if I’m being ethnocentric, don’t mean to be). I’m just thinking it cuts down on the large amount of laundry 3 kids bring.
