Re: Minor gripe: why use the word "panty"?!?!

It's funny how different people are.  I don't mind hearing Panties but I've always called them undies.

Moist, when refering to food,  is a turn off  for me.

Hiney, is inoffensive to me  as it's short for Hind end.  I heard an oldster call it your "'T'other end" once.  I say Rear if I must say at all.

I don't use the term "panty" myself but it doesn't bother me if the Q or others use it.

I don't like the word panties either unless maybe you're talking to a three year old.

Could be more regional than anything else.  I never used the term and always thought of more "snowflakish".  Underwear is a set of underpants and bra to me.

Victoria's Secret is my go-to for all my undergarments and they call them panties on their website. I don't think the hosts are off the mark on this.

Re: Minor gripe: why use the word "panty"?!?!

when my younger son was a little kid he didn't like the word "Pantyhose"   

 

His older brother would yank them off drying on the line and chase him around hollering  "PANN T HOOOOSE !!!"  PANN T HOOOOSE !!!"   all around the yard.

 

caught this when i came home from work one day. seemed it happened frequently .  hope the neighbors didn see that!

Hey, let's not get our panties in a twist, there's so much more important issues going on in the world today.

So the word for today is Panty. Either you like it or you don't.

Re: Minor gripe: why use the word "panty"?!?!

I don't talk about my panties, so I don't know what I call them. To me underwear refers to Men's underwear. For women underwear refers to bra and panties. A set of women's underwear. Panties are just panties so I guess I call them panties.
