Random Thought - Granny Panties

**Libby** · 10-24-2009, 03:32 PM

Ok ladies....admit it...who here still wears them?? LOL

While trying to motivate myself to move on this gloomy day, I have gotten dressed and removed myself from the sofa. While sitting at the comp, I've noticed I am not getting my usual draft on my backside from my jeans. [Y'all know what I'm talking about: the jeans that sit lower then they should (even the ones marketed as NOT being low rise but yet still somehow are) which in turn 'exposes' your lower back/backside.]

While realizing this - I reached to feel what was going on back there. To my dismay, I realized that I have on a pair of the dreaded 'granny panties'.

They sit rather higher up then I thought

Totally forgot I even owned a pair of these!

So my question to you ladies (and men if they have an equivalent of these grandpappy undergarments? LOL) is how many of you still own these or prefer this type of panty? (I still have mine b/c I refuse to throw out a perfectly good pair of panties.)

Any funny stories to share about your 'granny panties'?

I am just glad that I'm spending the day at home and didn't discover this while out in public.

ROFL!!!!

This thread cracks me up.

First I'll tell you about my childhood trauma. My mom would not allow me to wear any other kind of underwear so the other girls made fun of me in the locker room. Awwww, poor Karen

Now I wear the hipsters, cause they are confy without causing me granny-panty flashbacks.

I used to wear them alot. Especially to work. Why, less of a panty line under skirts. Now I wear the bikini's. Don't have to think to much about what I am putting on and what clothes go with my underwear. Plus the granny panties would always be abnormally big on me.

I'll admit to owning some, but they typically only get worn if I think I have a medical exam in my immediate future.

**valerian** · 10-24-2009, 07:51 PM

Ugh! Don't wear any anymore. Madhen I wear my sexy undies when I go to the doc. I think he likes them. ROFL

Nichole McDowell does not own granny panties. I could, however, tell you a very humorous story regarding some thongs.

**hotprincesscm** · 10-24-2009, 08:06 PM

My "granny panties" are the bikini cut kind, I wear them on the weekends, if I'm doing housework, etc...because they are more comfortable, also if I can get away with wearing them under my regular clothes without them being detectable. I wear thongs as well...but they are very uncomfortable, no housework, or cleaning in those! LOL

I admit to owning some as well. Favorites are the hipsters. One I will not do is butt floss.

**Daisygirl** · 10-24-2009, 08:19 PM

Nichole, I think there is a thong story we need to hear!

**bonnotsm9** · 10-24-2009, 08:41 PM

My mother would only buy my sisters and me that kind of underwear. We called them "1950s prison movie" underwear. The bras were just as bad.

I have a couple of pairs that I bought accidently. They just sit in my dresser unworn unless I am totally out of clean undies.

**Thevail** · 10-24-2009, 09:01 PM

I own 3 pairs.. but.. they're actually made of microfiber.. I know weird right. I wear them for hiking. There's NO chafing.

Mostly I wear the cheeky hipsters or bikinis.

**2ndGenGranola** · 10-24-2009, 09:25 PM

Oh when I was a tween/teen my mom would buy me horrid granny pants so big that I could tuck them in under my bra. I have no problems with cotton packaged pants but they must be a low cut kind.

**ravenmaniac** · 10-24-2009, 09:58 PM

I wear hipsters or boycut. Don't own granny panties. But it made me think of That 70's Show.

**frugalwarrior** · 10-24-2009, 10:53 PM

Nope. But don't try and sell me thongs either thank you!! This thread made me think about "underalls" does anyone remember those.

I have a funny story, and it ends with the moral:

Don't go snow tubing* in a thong (under your jeans). You'll get frostbite on your butt.

*Like sledding, only with a large innertube type of sled. Your butt sits on the ground with only a thin film of plastic between you and the snow.
