Do you wear knickers with chub rub shorts?

[NCTDN]

Sorry was the easiest way to describe them. I love summer dresses but need the shorts underneath. I’ve always worn knickers but was thinking that actually it’s an extra layer. If they have a gusset then I assume they’re designed to wear on their own?

Yes, I do. The thought of my skirt blowing up and displaying my bare bum or fanny adams under tights is too awful 🙈🙈🙈🙈

Roll on clear deodorant works so much better, like they use to do years ago.

This has made me laugh for the first time in a while! 🤣

I do, because I'll sometimes wear chub rub shorts more than once as I'm not a sweaty person.

I tried this and it does absolutely nothing for me.

Only if they're 100% cotton otherwise I get itchy. Tbh I prefer French knickers or something loose. Or going commando with a petticoat if the skirt is a decent length (doesn't help thigh rub of course though).

Of course you have to wear underwear with them! They’re not knickers. The gusset on chub rub shorts is like a tights gusset, it’s not thick enough to be hygienic.

If they’re just ordinary shorts rather than specific “chub rub” ones they wouldn’t have a gusset so I would think would be uncomfortable without underwear.

It’s not hot at all. I wear the snag tights ones and they cool you down rather than “adding a layer” in the sense of making you hotter.

Christ on a bicycle.

If they’re actually knickers but with legs then obviously that’s different

Of course not, they are underwear and you don't need two layers.

I wouldn't feel right without.
For me it's the same as any shorts or leggings.

Like most things in life , it comes down to personal preference. The aim is to reduce discomfort from rubbing thighs. However this is achieved is fine . Also think it depends on what sort of shorts you’re wearing as some are like underwear and others more like normal Lycra cycle shorts. As long as you’re comfortable OP that’s all that’s matters.

Spot on 😂

I don't, but I think they would be needed if the "chub rub" shorts aren't cotton. As well as stopping chaffing I feel a bit "safer" wearing longer knickers incase there is a gust of wind etc

I may have missed the point here, but what are 'chub rub shorts' please?

Bloomers.

The modern equivalent of.

I have recently discovered anti chafe sticks that you rub on areas prone to chafing like a stick deodorant. No longer have to wear shorts in hot weather under a dress/skirt. It’s a game changer!

I use them as if they were knickers, so don't double up. Too hot. Obvs changed at least daily.

Def wear knickers.
But now I use an anti chafe stick rub. Waaaaay much better.

I checked mine as a put them on today, it literally says underwear on the label.

I do this too. I am not going to wear 2 pairs of knickers

Oh ok - mine do not. However, I will continue to wear knickers too (I only wear thongs/g-strings anyway, so not like I have 2 layers of massive pants)

I don't wear pants with mine, I get the snag ones, It would be far too hot, they get washed after one wear.
Mind you I'm post menopause so as dry as the sahara desert so I don't have to worry about any "staining". Sorry TMI I know.

Another who wears the sloggi ones - they are definitely underwear:

I wear the snag ones with knickers.
I've tried other brands that are more "knickers with legs" but they aren't long enough to actually stop my thighs rubbing.
