Panties Or Briefs?
08/07/03 Filed in: Folderol
I'm in love with a woman who is the mother of two
girls, and the word 'panties' is uttered frequently
in their house. Sometimes 6 or 7 times a day. Which
lead me to wonder just what the difference is between
Panties and Briefs. Essentially, women's panties and
men's briefs are the same item; the fabric varies,
sure, and the style, but the shape is pretty much the
same across the board. The whole category is
Underwear, I suppose, but those two garments are
specific in their nomenclature. I'm rather reluctant
to describe anything wrapped around my nether regions
as brief...guilt by association? I do understand the
name Panties. The diminutive form of Pants. Most men
wear pants, but not panties...Slacks, maybe, but not
slacksies...Jeans, but not jeansies...shorts, but not
shorties.
As you can see, this is a complex question...
I find boxer shorts uncomfortable, jockey shorts too complicated (that whole fly thing), and boxer briefs redundant, so its bikini briefs for me. Or, as I've come to think of them, panties. I'm wearing diminutive pants right now. And I like it.
