We've come a long way from fig leaves

1. Boy-leg shorts

There're basically 3 reasons why I like boyleg shorts. They're comfortable, you don't have to worry about wedgies, and they're low maintenance (think shaving). Besides, you can wear em to bed, and anything that makes you look cute while sleeping is good in my books (ref: Sylvester the Cat boyleg undies). My favourite pair is bold-striped with maroon, light brown and white. Thank god it didn't fly down along with my lucky black tangas.



2. Low-rise (hipster) tangas
The undies I lost are called low-rise tangas, and the reason I like them is because they're low enough to not show under my jeans, but they're not that low that I have to drag em up everytime I get up from sitting down. It doesn't help that there're 3 underwear bins in every Jusco outlet, with a combined amount of maybe 3000 3-pack undies, and they only have 10 units of low-rise tangas. To make it more challenging, the stuff I want is usually hidden 20 layers below the granny underpants. You can see why underwear shopping isn't a very happy time for me.



3. Lacey stuff...
...is pretty to look at, but unless it's one of those RM2k a meter Chantilly lace or what not, it's not going to be very comfortable. Besides, maintenance is a bitch. On the other hand, if you're wearing lace and it stays on for more than 10 minutes, maybe it's not doing what it's supposed to be doing anyway.



3. Matching bras and panties

Sets are pretty, but then they're usually very expensive and I rarely, if ever, find something that I really really like that would justify the amount I will have to pay (through my nose). But hey, since this is nothing more than a badly-disguised attempt to post pictures of near naked women, I'll put some up anyway.

Thongs/G-strings
Everyone knows what a thong is. I don't get people who wear thongs, actually. There's no support involved, it's like having a permanent wedgie, and it's unhygienic. Figured if I'm wearing something that requires a thong, I might as well go commando. :p However, it's hard to go through underwear sites without stumbling across a thong (and a nice ass), so here's one anyway. Once you manage to tear your eyes off her cheeks, check out the butterflies.


Finally, I would like to end this with a word of caution. Unless you're campy like Britney, you never EVER want your thong strings to show. Ah Lian-esque trends should be strictly confined to places where Ah Lians hang out (mainly Cheras). No surprises elsewhere, please.

Notes:
Underwear pics sourced from Victoria's Secret and La Senza. These places desperately want you to believe that the only difference between the highly-airbrushed models and your wife/gf is some expensive scraps of lace and silk.

Sourgrapes, yessir. :) I lost my lucky black underwear, I'm allowed to sulk.

Hi Saffran
You must have a huge traffic surge from the guys these few days. Cheers!

Hehe, yeah... Keeping the guys really busy, aren't you?

And about that G-string... It looks so eww with the string going into her butt... *winces* But then, it IS a G-string... Ugh...

More posts about undies...

You are really racking up the traffic. You should definately put some ads on here. Undie ads... they'd prolly net you so much. =)

And I was about to do a post on fashion goods I wanted to get. But I don't think I can now, after having stared at undies for the last 5 minutes.

*laughs*

Cheers Saff. Fun read. =)

Oh yeah. I forgot to make this point... we rarely hear the word 'campy' out here outside of English classes. It's nice to hear someone use it.

Kervin said...

Whoa! Heavy! You've got my traffic XD Nice piece and subject, never thought I'd see so frank an expressive post in Malaysia. Keep up the good work ;) If you think woman thongs are bad, imagine huys wearing them, don't get it??

@5xmom:
Haha, I dunno. I don't have one of those sitemeter thingies. Figured guys would like the T&A and girls would like the expensive undies. :)

@Seanna:
You can get better stuff at your average porn site, dearie. :)

Thongs are supposed to be sophisticated and really sexy. You just have to get used to it. *grins*

@Johann:
Cheap way to get hits: post naked women. :) Why do you think RC's Chick Thread is so damn popular?

Hey, you know what, do a post about tighty whities! Enlighten me on the intricacies of male underwear. :)

I was gonna use 'tacky', but it sounded tacky. ;)

@Kervin:
I tend to space out my naked women posts. This is not one of those 5354 blogs! *grins*

Thanks for the comment though. :) Write your male version of male underwear preferences, it'll be cool to trade notes.

@Bawang:
Told you you'd like it. ;)

Wait a minute, you mean to say you can identify those models by name?? 0_o
