little chickadee Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I'm old enough not to care. I'm nearly ready to start wearing purple! I love that poem, but I tend to wear Purple at any opportunity anyway as it's my favourite colour! (I am infact wearing a purple scarf at this very moment!) I never went down the road of thongs - glad I'm back in fashion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I love my big big pants. Always been a big pants girl! YOu won't see my pants blowing in the wind on the washing line - I'm far too embarrassed to let everyone see them!! Your neighbours expect to see little dainty triangles, not granny bloomers!!! Good for big pants!!!! Surely thongs encourage bacteria & water infections? Touch wood, never had either! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Big waisty pants for me too for my big omlet bum. I have never worn or will ever wear a thong, they look most uncomfortable! Im suprised at the response to this thread, I thought most women wore thongs but majority here are big pants people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Big pants, big pants, big pants, ra ra ra Thongs are wrong I'm definitely getting old . Not only do I much prefer big pants, I also HAVE to have something tucked into my trousers (t-shirt or dainty vest, don't mind which). Can't abide a draught up my back .

Mrs Frugal Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Funny you should say that! I've been tucking my thermal vest into my big pants all day for the same reason . I can't bear a draught on my back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Im suprised at the response to this thread, I thought most women wore thongs but majority here are big pants people Could you define 'big' pants? Do you mean big like in Bridget Jones Diary? I normally wear M & S sort of medium pants, however I do have some 'going to the Doctor's knickers' which are a bit bigger Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missuscluck Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I have often asked him this. He just says he finds it more comfortable without. He has worn boxers/underpants of all makes and just prefers none. I dont mind, cause it means I dont have to wash them Perhaps if he had to wear a skirt, he might think differently. I think its different for girls. We NEED our pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 Changing the subject quickly... I love my vests in the cold weather too - I tuck them into my waistband. And even wear one at night under my winter PJs along with thick woolly bedsocks; sleeping alone is chilly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 I think that big pants are proportional Tessa - if they come to your middle, or you can tuck your boobs into them, then they are big pants They need to be generous enough on the backside to keep your bottoms in (as my Rosie says) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I go away for just one afternoon - and return to 5 pages of knicker talk I wear something in between thongs and apple catchers - and NO, they're not Burberry ....and I haven't worn a Liberty Bodice since I was about 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
