Guardian letter on wearing women's underwear

[MondayYogurt]

I've never asked myself what drives these urges, but this makes a sad sort of sense.

Over the years I’ve had many similar letters from men who stole and wore their mothers’ underwear – and all of them said their mothers were emotionally distant. It’s not uncommon. Ultimately, it’s about seeking comfort.

What did these men do in the olden days before mums knickers existed?

Sounds like nonsense to me. I wonder how many girls with emotionally distant fathers pinch their underwear. Pretty much none is my guess. As pp have said, just another way of blaming men's sexual hang-ups on women.
