I Wonder If I'd Get The Same Answers Today?

One of the Internet things I do after breakfast is check out my Facebook memories. This one from 2017 made me smile. It seems I had forgotten that my recent quandry about women's underwear styles wasn't the first time I had addressed the situation. (Note- names and profile photos removed to protect the innocent ☺)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Strangest Facebook post you'll probably see today...I'm buying Christmas Outreach gifts for a 19-year old woman. One of the things she wants is underwear (which I'm assuming means panties). But what TYPE of panties does a 19 year old wear?

  • ML-That's a tough one! Thongs is what I say. But not sure. Good luck with that! Lol
  • KG-In my experience people either love or hate thongs. I'd hate to gift them and have the person be in the latter category.
  • RHM-I started to answer and then remembered I am not 19 anymore. 😂😂
  • MEG-Boy shorts or bikini cut was the go to at that age
  • KG-Thanks. Since you're the youngest person to answer I'm going to go with your suggestion 🙂
  • MEG-It's comfortable and something to appreciate, no one appreciates putting on a thong lol
  • KD-I think my daughter wears bikini cut...she is 28 though...but wore the same thing at 19. 🙂
  • WSM-Thong if they wear yoga pants. Have fun with that one!
  • NHM-Hmm what size did she list? Maybe use that to decide thong vs bikini vs boy short.
  • KG-Good suggestions. The tag says size 7, so I'd guess medium build.
  • JTW-Boy shorts
  • AK-I say if she's wanting underwear for Christmas she probably isn't fussy!
  • KG-That was my first thought, too. But if you're getting underwear for Christmas shouldn't it be something you like?
  • AK-Yes but she wasn't specific so maybe it doesn't matter.
  • LHB-My daughter says boyfriend panties are popular, and she said that Victoria’s Secret usually has a “bargain” bin.
  • KG-Thanks for the information!
  • STCC-hope you got some bikinis... thongs are not the norm...

  2. Facebook is a scourge, it's done way more harm than good to society. Mr Zuckerberg has a nice doomsday bunker complex for himself, in preparation for SHTF or WW3 that he contributes to. Another fun fact about him and tech oligarchs, they don't let their kids have unlimited or any access to phones and social media...let that sink in.

    1. I agree with some of your points, but have decided to use social media sites to positively interact with my chosen group of Friends.

  3. How neat to take a look back at your past blogs. I recently shopped for panties for my niece...the one that lives in a home for adults with disabilities. Wow. I've never seen so many types of underwear and some of them were more like strings. The world of underwear has really changed since the days when I would see my grandmothers hanging out on the line to dry. lol

  8. I feel like most women have a mix of undies: boy shorts, granny panties, thongs, etc!

    2. I also have at least 30 underwear, one a day, LOL! But yeah a range of styles is good just incase!

  9. I've never worn thongs. They seem really uncomfortable. Like someone else said, I think most women have several different styles they choose form.
