I think panties must be a very American term, I never hear it anywhere but here and porn to be honest.

Oh, and all the peeps that said cruelty you're not cruel in the slightest.

Its a South African term too.

In related news, I hate the word Knickers, conjures images in my head that I dont need there

Panties: derogatory diminutive form of "pants", a shortened form of "pantaloons"
Means "drawers for men" ( in a derogatory context) first time recorded this way in 1845.

As a reference to "women's or children's undergarments", first use in 1908

~taken from Wiktionary...

It's funny how different words make us all recoil. Lucky you're not fucking or engaging with me, I use that word a lot.

Fortunately I am and I love the word. But you could call it a pussy protector and I'd think it's hot.

Derogatory? Disrespectful to pantaloons? Wow.

So the great panty debate of 2014 seems to have heated up!

As a male, I just feel weird saying "panties." If I can avoid it, I will. If I have to speak, I'll say "take them off," or "you won't be needing those." Typing is a whole other matter. Panties, knickers, thong, what-have-you, and that-thing-covering-her-butt are all fair game.

Fun fact: Knickers originates from knickerbockers, a style of pants.

Thandi, Thandi, Thandi....
Don't you know that EVERYTHING we women have, we have men to thank for?
Including, but not limited to, our vocabulary..

I think rather than take a quiz and find out my personality label, I'd value more how I was perceived by others. As often times what is projected is what I want yo project.

And while it's fairly common for people to say they don't care what people think of them, we all care. Each and every one of us.

What personality trait that if you found out you were projecting, you would immediately try to change.

Far from being perfect, I still pretty much try to be the best that I can be when dealing with others. I think the personality trait I would be most anxious about not projecting is obnoxiousness. It's extremely unappealing and can cause others offense and hurt.

And as a catch up......
I do come onto Lit to relax and unwind, play around the threads and entertain myself. At its simplest, it's a fun diversion, all the better when I find something which piques my interest, or can get my teeth into.

And....if they match my bra, I'll call them panties, but, undies works for me. If someone wants to take them off, it would be better if he said knickers .... with any British accent...

 

[BradBigBrain]

Whenever I hear someone talk about knickers, this is what I think of. Perhaps that's why I giggle every time.

Never in my life have I ever heard that panties was a derogatory term.

And these are knickers in my head. So...yeah, no.

No wonder Donny Osmond has never given or received oral.

No VPL in those huh?

Are we agreed on tomatoes btw?

 

[ChainedUp]

I've had the panty vs panties debate. Still not 100% sure which it is I'm removing, but I don't let it get in my way

 

[Lord Pmann]

There's an awful lot of derailing here...

okay, Sheriff.

I answered the question. There was nothing more to say on what #1 characteristic I wouldn't like in myself, unless you wanted to go with #2.

INFP

I just took the test, and that's what it says.

INFP

*cheers for INFP*

I have tested both ISFP and INFP on my personality type.

PERSONALITY: INFP

I'm an INFP too! *waves to the other turtles*

For a supposed "rarer" type (4-5% of the population), we seem to be disproportionately represented in this thread -- and perhaps on Lit in general.

What personality trait that if you found out you were projecting, you would immediately try to change.

Arrogance. I'd feel physically sick if I were told that I came across that way, and I wouldn't relax until I had corrected that impression. Arrogance carries a lot of unpleasant baggage for me.

grandma taught us that bras and panties should be purchased in sets.. and, in public, they were referred to as "nummies"

 

[RiverKnight]

Nummies...sounds kinky

No badge needed. These are valued tangents to the original question. Ones that people can learn from in their posts. Put our badge back in your pocket, pmann....it might as well keep your bullet company

That's not a bullet in my pocket.

Clever. Very clever.

While we're on personalities, I'll extend the related topic a bit further. We know what personality traits we don't want to display. And we can assume that if we don't want those for ourselves, we don't want them in others, can't we? If we know what like/dislike how do we go about getting what we want? Do you put it in your profile(I've seen a few do that)? If you do, are you worried about people presenting themselves as something they aren't? I'm rambling........but I think you get where I'm headed.
