People who go commando (don't wear underwear), how do you make it work?
I’ve always been curious, because I’m not fond of underwear, but I don’t know how people make it work. Wouldn’t you have to wash the trousers every single day? How else would you keep them fresh? Do you use special deodorant for the area or panty liners on the trousers?
I think people that swear by going “commando” just haven’t tried good underwear. I will not wear anything but under armour underwear. If anybody else has any other suggestions please let me know. These are the best I can find. They are expensive. That’s the only downside.
I’ve been pretty happy with MeUndies but they can also get expensive, and since it’s a subscription I can actually rotate out or throw away pairs that are starting to go. 10/10 comfort, 7/10 overall experience
I’ve used those before. The problem i have is the cotton. I need the material that under armour uses. Cotton makes me sweat and it bunches up easily. It also loses its shake easily over time.
I will say that personally, I do have to take extra special precautions due to non-painful external hemorrhoids. It really does make things extra annoying to clean.
I won’t describe further, but in my case, underwear are a must :/
One about people with certain waist ratios, and heavy manual labour, and what all that motion can do to underwear.
I recently moved houses, and for the first time ever (after decades of experience), chose to forgo undies and go commando in sweatpants for this recent ordeal.
Boy howdy. Let me tell you all the ways it was awesome. Sweat induced induction to asscrack, is but one of them. But likely the most important, the Knock-on ride-up effect. Also gone.
To all the comments saying their junk has been caught in their zipper, I know a guy that swears by jock straps. Says they don’t bunch up or make you sweat a bunch since it’s basically just a strip of fabric over/around Wingus and the Ping Pong boys with some elastic bands to keep it there. I tried one once and threw it away after a day of wearing it so they’re not for everyone, but could be something to look into.
If your genitals aren’t made for jousting… thongs are the closest I can think of I guess? I don’t have any experience with having that configuration
Like others here have said, I find the question to be a little weird.
You just make sure you clean yourself properly after you go (and if you don’t have a washlet bidet at home, get one, the basic ones can be had for less than $40 on Amazon).
And if you need to be out and about and won’t be able to water wipe due to having to use public toilets, and aren’t 100% about your ability to be fully clean using TP, then just keep a few pairs of underwear and wear them at those times.
This isn’t the Mystery of the Ages or anything. 🤷♂️
As someone who has taught an impatient child (what’s the opposite of an oxymoron?) how to tie a shoe, I can tell you there are many different ways to tie a shoe, and apparently there is a way that’s easier for autistic kids (I thought that might be easier) but I was having trouble with it as an adult. So…
ELI5 how do neurotypical adults autistie their shoes?
As an impatient adult my solution is to wear shoes without laces. I have a pair of boots that use laces, and a pair of sneakers with laces that I never wear. Everything else is slip on or zip up. I’d wear velcro, too, I don’t even care if it looks ridiculous (only I’ve never had that option as an adult)
You just made me think about my current shoe collection. I have 2 pairs of flip flops, 1 pair of slip on house shoes, 4 pairs of slip on walking/tennis shoe looking shoes (dunno what to call them) and 2 actual tennis shoes with laces and 2 dress shoes with laces.
When I run, I wear the laces. Anywhere else I’m laceless. Haven’t worn business attire since covid began.
I do loop swoop and pull but I’m not 100% neurotypical. I did learn as an adult that swooping over instead of under makes your laces much less likely to come undone and since then haven’t ever double knotted my laces.
Step 1 Lay hands palm down. Grabs each lace in each hand. Make two thumbs up. ( laces should oriented shoe-thumb side, aglet-pinky side.) Extend index fingers.
Step 2a With right hand loop the lace around your thumb then index finger. With left hand loop around the opposite way, finger then thumb.
Step 3 Place left hand index finger under right hand lace(between right hand index and thumb.)
Step 4 (simultaneous) Use right hand to grab left hand lace (around left hand index finger). Use left hand to grab right hand lace ( around right hand thumb)
Step 5a pull laces all the way through each other.
You now have the over under part.
Repeat steps 1-5 with these changes
Step 2b right hand - finger then thumb Left hand - thumb then finger.
Step 5b Do not pull laces all the way through.
You now have a finished knot.
If you ignore 2b And do 2a both times you will still have a knot but it is likely to come untied.
If you ignore 5b you will have a knot but no “bows”
nah, im not on board at all. first of all, i’m a folder every time. no disrespect to crumplers, but that’s a no from me. second, this guide says to use a wet wipe but makes NO MENTION of the fact that you should under no circumstances flush wet wipes. that’s a serious oversight. finally, team bidet forever.
I wear underwear when I go out. But if I’m at home, I’m mostly commando. I guess just regularly showering and changing clothes work pretty well. I also use a bidet, and an anti-perspiration deodorant (Oars + Alps).
In general, if you’re reasonably clean, it shouldn’t be an issue. I mean, you don’t fuck wearing underwear, and you don’t want to smell then. Just maintain that.
I just started being more conscious of my body and how I clean it. Showered more frequently and used more deodorant. Now, going commando is the norm for me and I barely even think about underwear anymore.
Panty liners is honestly a brilliant idea! I used to go sans underpants but uh, tight jeans is not the jam for that. I think having multiple pairs of pants you rotate through+panty liners would be the best bet.
How the hell did Ash have that many fresh pairs of underwear, and how did he keep the fresh separated from the not fresh?
I mean, you could tell me that pokecenters have laundromats, and he hit up a pokecenter at least once every 7 days, but are you telling me he had a zip lock bag for the dirties and he could afford replacing that bag regularly?
Wait... think I'm answering my own questions here.
Yup, I've just become grosser as I've gotten older...
Edit: so I 100 percent replied to someone referencing the underwear wisdom from ep. 1 of pokemon.
Now that notification isn't my notifications and I see this as a top level comment.
**Do not store your dirty underwear hermetically sealed!**Stick it in a mesh or paper bag, something it can release the pent up humidity through; or you’ll get some really nasty laundry.
For Pokemon trainers, I’m no expert, but wouldn’t they just stick their clean clothes in one poke’ball & dirty laundry in another?
