er, this is probably only really appropriate to the girls, unless you happen to enjoy coordinating your socks with things...

Sets? You mean like panty/bra?
I live in the world of the flatchested, haven't bought a real bra since high school. (I'm freeee!)

oh the bliss of not having to shop for bra's!
yep, i always go to the shops and think, yeah, i should really buy them to match, so i spend more on a set, and then I get to the draw every morning and think 'whatever the hell leaps into my hands' it makes for some rather bizarre colour combinations, (especially as my socks never match either) and was just hoping to hell that i'm not the only one who does this...

I don't buy sets, nor do I care if top and bottoms match. I have to spend nearly $60 on one bra as it is, so I'm not going to spend extra money on matching panties.
Plus, it's not like anyone's seeing them. Maybe if someone was I'd care a bit more...
But I'm proud to report that today everything's pink! I didn't mean to match, but I sort of did!

Ok, Dead thread on Sun, so I waited til really late to check todayand the whole thing has blown up...
On to Q&A
Seryn: I'm not sure how to post a picutre in a thred. I think it has to be hosted on a net server. Then you could just add the URL to the post, I think. If that doesn't do it, it will at least show up as a link to the image. I have no online storage space to hold images so I don't do that stuff. Wish I could be more helpful.
Seryn and BEG: I'm confused, is the talk of shoes supposed to scare off the nice boys, or only the nice boys would stay and talk about shoes? And the Bra and Panty conversation...Ummm nice boys stay or boys that stay and talk about bras and panties aren't nice?
BEG: Not a foot/shoe fetishist, But the black boot thingies inspire. I would love to see these "FrankenHooker" boots you speak of. Anything from black soft leather ankle boots with the zipper, to Shiny black leather thigh highs with all manner of hanging rings and straps. They catch my eye.
Ladies: Bras and Panties: Wear (or not) whatever is comfortable. Most guys, if they get to the point that they are seeing you in just these items, are unlikey to say, "Black panties with a Pink Bra? Oh God that's it, it's over. I'm out of here." Dong Ma?
Having revealed too much, I wander to the next thread...

The topic: womens underwear.
The challenge: saying something interesting that will not offend my lady friends.
Scorpion steps out onto the tight rope and walks out into the great void. Observe the lack of net. At the center of the span he stops, clears his voice and speaks.
I am aware that the are some women who have two separate collections of underwear. The first is the plain, comfortable underwear for every day. The second is the sexy, but uncomfortable underwear for when they are entertaining a man. Is this true for you or do you consider yourself to be entertainment enough and save you money for more important things or is all you underwear sexy, but uncomfortable because secretly you are a masochist?

No underwear is fabulously comfortable, but the cotton is an easier fabric to wear, unfortunetly, unless you are super efficient at laundering, or you have a butler, there is no way i've ever found that white will stay bright white beyond five washes. If I could just invent non graying cotton, god i'd be so rich,
I'd have enough to fund series 2.
Right, any scientists here? get started, if we work quick enough... all you lawyers get started on the patent and anyone who wants to help me with the marketing...

I hate to break it to you, but blueing compound and bleach were invented a longtime ago, so no fortune, but maybe now your undies will be white.
Oh pleases are we talking about laundry now? I could take shoes. Blackeyedgirl's boots even sounded mighty sexy, but laundry?

I am proud to say that I own not a single pair of solid white undies. I do have one pair that's mostly white, with hot pink trim, but that's because they came in a set with a hot pink stripey pair that caught my eye.
Nor do I own a single pair of black panties.
I'm somewhere in the middle, I guess.
I don't have a problem finding underwear that is comfortable, cute and practical. Bras are the hard shop. Bane of my existance and whatnot.

What the body is and does is much more important than what's on it, I say. I live in comfy undies and comfy shoes.
Of course, comfy doesn't have to mean ugly.

Seryn: I think I might be the last of a dying breed. Although I will qualify as such: I do have the 'everyday' and 'special occasion' undies. I'm a matcher, if I buy a bra I have to buy at least 2 pairs of underwear to match (I don't use the word panties cos it sounds like something a child molestor would say, or maybe that's just me). I'm primarily a psycho about this when I go out some place where there is a snow ball's chance in hell that someone else might see them. Plus they make me feel sexy. Women forsake comfort for beauty every day, and I don't mind if that means a g-string and a push-up bra. Cos it makes me feel pretty or whatever. Also While I am a matcher pretty much everything I own is black with the exception of a few lighter colored bras to wear under light colors (which I pretty much never wear), so it's not too hard to always match when it's black to black. Just ask Victoria's Secret, who I ended up with a gold card for cos I can't stop feeding my need to have more pretty undies. It's a sick addiction, right up there with shoes. God sometimes I'm girly.
PS: We all know that men could give 2 shits what we have on. By the time they get to the underwear they are so excited to be getting some that they could really care if you were wearing burlap and blood larvae. ALTHOUGH all of you have a prefrence. Why do I say this? Cos the last 4 guys I was with each had a preference, one liked black bikini's another had a thing for thongs. You all have a preference, but it's not so important.
About the whites: Well ScorpionRegent, bleach isn't as simple as you think. Much like Seryn I can't keep white undies white (thus I stopped buying them, black never gets all gross colored), and I tried bleach (turned them yellow after a few washes) and it did crap. I've actually tried nearly every method on earth to keep 'em white, but much like white T-shirts, I fail and they either end up grey or yellow. I blame the cotton industry for doing something screwy tot he cotton. Seryn: I'm with you on this, non-fading white would be the way to go! We'd make zillions!
BTW: gentlemen, just so you all know, there are probably 5 women on the face of the earth that find tighty whities attractive. For gods sake please work the boxers, the boxer-brief or go commando. The tighty-whities just give us all the willies, or at least all teh women I know. Go ahead and wear them when you don't think any woman is going to see them, but if there's a snow ablls chance in hell those pants are coming off, please wear the boxers. Also Euro-guys that goes the same for the wierd black-tighties you guys work. They freak me out!
BEG, freakin' on the whities...
