... today, 8/5, is National Underwear Day!

Hey, I'm all for underwear. Who else?

[Incharge]

😍👋🍑

[DaChief]

Great idea, but I spent over 2 hours in meetings at work today. I don't think that would've gone over well. 😕

You look great, Erica, but trust me, nobody wants to see me in my underwear. 😆

That includes me. 🤣🤣

Oh for heaven's sake. So I have to sit here all by myself in my underwear? C'mon, y'all! It's National Underwear Day! We're spankos! We're big on underwear!

[Bramblewine]

Probably all of us are in our underwear right now.

Most of us also have something on over it. Like we do most of the time.

I celebrated by not wearing any. Like most days.

No underwear? = guess what!

Nice outfit in profile pic though!

I am still celebrating National Sweat Pants day (Jan 21) and National Pizza day (Feb 9th). But come to think of it I do need an excuse to wear my union suit. Better known as full body underwear with trap door. Looking for my camera now. 

[Longtimespanking]

Erica, you look very appealing in your matching bra and underpants!   It seems as if they create a day to celebrate just about everything. 

In order to acknowledge diversity in underwear we also need to appreciate plain white cotton underwear,  women who choose to wear men's underwear and men who wear women's underwear, as well as those who wear diapers instead of underwear either for medical necessity (more common than you may think) or because they are into that.  

But I'll bet that most people would greatly prefer to see beautiful women posting photos of themselves in underwear like Erica did!

I triple dog dare you to show up here with no underwear on? Last woman I did that with give me the deer in the headlights look when I told her to stand up and take her pants down.

But I don’t have any underwear on!

oh well, should’ve thought about that when you were puttin your pants on, so take them off. 🤷‍♂️
 

Dawgs, that’s funny when I was in the army our company was known as the “Nasty Dawgs.”

That’s a fact.

This thread raises a question for me. My experience is females only and out of 40 years TTWD only been ER last 15 years. Less experience still learning how to be ER the EE seeks.

Most EE have been  20-40 somethings. Would it be true that the majority of females do not want body comments even if the comments are positive?

Not quite sure what you're asking, and I can't speak for the majority of females, only for myself. Overall, I like positive body comments. When people are crass and crude and overly personal, then it's kinda gross, but if it's a genuine compliment without any qualifiers ("Gee, you have a great body FOR YOUR AGE"), then I appreciate it.

[Lotsapappa]

EricaScott -

This is helpful. I understand “FOR YOUR AGE and agree. I was asking if a positive body comment should be avoided all together as it might be viewed by majority of woman as Objectifying. In your case, I was much more tempted to say I enjoy your blog. And have for many years before I joined SN. 
 

I would hate to say ‘Wow, great ass” and get a reply “You Sir, are a fucking cactus”.

(laughing) You forgot the first part of that quote. "I've seen some pricks in my time, but you, Sir, are a fucking cactus."

Well, here's my deal -- I am admittedly an exhibitionist and an attention hog. I like the positive body comments. However, there are likely many women who don't care for them -- at least not from strangers. I daresay that if a woman posts a picture of her body in the first place, she wants it to be noticed and appreciated. Still, practicing caution is a good thing.

I like positive comments, too. Like Erica, I am a bit of an exhibitionist. I work hard to stay fit and it is nice to hear compliments. I know it makes some people uncomfortable, though.

Depends on who's making the comment and in what context.

If it's a stranger on the street, that's icky and inappropriate. 

If it's your boyfriend saying, "Wow, hot bod," when you're in the bedroom together, that's entirely different.

Coming from someone who's closer than a stranger but not as close as a boyfriend, it depends. I once had a male friend say to me, just casually, "You look nice today," and then he got flustered and worried that he'd said something inappropriate. I didn't take it that way, because he wasn't saying it as a come on, it wasn't flirtatious, even, it was just a nice straightforward thing to say. But... and this is a huge but... the same words said in a different tone could have creeped me out. Sometimes guys say that and it's all about undressing you with their eyes.

I think what it comes down to is, we sense when we're being objectified, and what makes it objectification versus just a nice compliment is the energy of the interaction. Not the words, necessarily, because the very same words can be objectification or just a compliment.

This.

Context is everything.

Well....with regard to celebrating underwear...lol...my husband loves to see me in my undies. He buys me lots of varied types...but hates thongs. He usually picks my clothing and of course my underwear for each day. That's just something we do in our dynamic. And yes, sometimes no underwear is his choice for me...but he is a lover of seeing me in just underwear and/or lingerie daywear...stockings, garter belts, garters, sexy tops...hates pantyhose. But, I do too....so I am glad...lol. 

Erica, I am a straight heterosexual woman, but I think you look great in your underwear day celebration pose. I honestly have a bit of exhibitionism in me and wish I could post a photo of myself like you....but my husband says no, and for us...I agree he is right. We really do need to protect our identity for the sake of our family and business and church friends, etc....I have a bra and panty set that looks just like yours in that photo.

We are in a very rural setting, and very private the way our acreage lies. I spend much time outside in the warmer months in just my underwear, often just panties....doing chores, projects, runs, or working out as assigned by my husband, and mostly "with" my husband". He and I are very "into" physical fitness. He likes to have me work around the house or inside our several outbuildings while in my under things..all the way from plain old white hanes briefs and a tee, to varied colors...boy cut boxer style, to sexy lacey black complet set of panties, bra, hosery, garters, and garter belt. I have actually worked hard in our property in very sexy under things while wearing work boots and shoveling footers.  lol...yes...we are strange..I know...but all this to say....my husband and I appreciate the woner...lol...of underwear. And...btw...I LOVE seeing him in his hanes tight boxers....any color. Not so much a fan of plain white briefs...and I too hate thongs on a man...or speedo swim wear. Yuck...at least for me. 

I was a prostitute...stripper...escort.."sex worker"...whatever....in my early adult years....when I saw men come to me in thongs....almost a complete turn off for me. 

So...my cheers for underwear!
