After 44 years of being too hot...

[clevermoniker]

I've finally just ditched underwear altogether. It happened by accident. I was out of underwear that's even remotely wear-able in the summer heat and I was not going to wear stuff that keeps me warm in the winter. So, I just threw on a pair of workout shorts and a white t-shirt and took the dog for a walk (not a euphemism). I figured (and I'm sure I'm right) no one would notice.

That was about 2 weeks ago and I'm loving every minute of it. I even went to a party with nice shorts on and no underwear. It was great to be so cool even when it was so hot! I know I'm no pioneer here, and that I'm not alone, but I just had to tell some like-minded people!

There are times when it is needed

I wear panties during my period and once in a while for other reasons. But for the most part I think they are a bad idea. They trap moisture and that is not healthy. Other than the exceptions I mentioned above I think that they are just a commercial concept causing people to think that they NEED to make such a purchase. I also think that there is a "fig-leaf" aspect to it. Many societies tend to view anything to do with human sexuality as a forbidden fruit. There is a shame of being naked that makes no logical sense. So, the "need" to cover and hide a person's genitals is really a social construction that is a mental illness. There really is no need to be ashamed of any part of the human body or feel a need to hide it.

Oh look, a thread for fatties to complain.

Wanting to wear underwear is a "mental illness"?
