I open a drawer,and there they are. A stack of underpants,that seem to have appeared from nowhere,neatly ironed,and smelling sweetly of ....some pongy stuff.
I've no idea how this happens,it's miraculous,but it got me to thinking about how many pairs I go through in the week.
I put on a clean pair every morning,and I assumed this was the case for everyone,until I asked some of the lads at work about their 'underpant rotation schedule' as the yanks say,and I was shocked by the responses.
Two of them changed them once a week,one changed his fortnightly,and one said "I give 'em a sniff,and if I don't faint,I put the bastards on".
Surely a clean pair every morning is the norm. Please tell me it is.

Clean pair on in the morning after a shower and then another one after a bath in the evening.

Mrs B's Dad is apparently a once a week man which I find frankly disgusting.

I stopped sitting on his settee when I found out.

Daily is a must, either that or if not available commando is the preferred option. :flash:

I try not to go commando, after a painful zip incident.

Fresh pair every morning. Then I go commando in baggy shorts after a long day at work. Feels good man

careful wardrobe co-ordination is required, primarily if you save your button flies for the back end of the week when underwear issues most likely arise.

Whilst it is rare to run short, I find leaving the washing on the line overnight combined with unseasonal showers can result in an unplanned shortage of boxers.

I'm a shorts man too. Y-fronts don't look good at my age.

Beckham might pull it off,if you'll pardon the phrase,but I look like an escapee from a secure unit.

Have we all gone a bit "Mumsnet" with this thread?

Not saying that's a bad thing.......just an unexpected directional change.

I always have a nice fresh pair on everyday.

I know someone who loves a gypsy wash and puts a fresh pair on every 4 days which means inside out and back to front.

He bent over one time and the smell from the nick of his arse absolutely fooking stunk.

It wasn't a sexual encounter by the way before anyone starts! Shocked

Oh God,what have I started. I need to pee.

Fresh pair every morning for me. Y Fronts may not look the business but they are better for your clackers.

True story this.... my younger brother always wore boxer shorts and one day he started getting pain in his nuts. He thought he may have had cancer so he made an appointment to see the quack post haste. On seeing the Doctor he explained his predicament and after a quick examination he was asked what underwear he wore. He said he always wore shorts and the Doctor told him to sttart wearing briefs or Y Fronts instead because they offer much more support. It worked too.

I've heard that RT.

The fact is,I prefer shorts because,when I get caught short,I can point Percy at the porcelain much quicker,due to a better 'opening set up'.

The only time I point Percy at the porcelain is when I am out and about. At home I always sit down to have a pee thus avoiding any unpleasant dribble which can play havoc with a toilet mat.

Interesting. Was chatting with a Swedish chap once,and he said that was the norm in his country.

We'd run out of footy chat.

Don't get this, surely there should be sufficient support naturally and so anything additional is a bonus?

It wasn't really a voluntary thing, more of an ultimatum from my better half. I have now got used to it and it's no big issue but to avoid any confusion I always take the newspaper with me when I'm not going to have a pee.

No, not so Fabian. As Dr Patel explained to my brother, your scrotum stretches as you get older and the skin in your nutsack gets stretched. Pretty much the same principle in the way that ladies wear bras. My brother was in quite a bit of discomfort but as soon as he ditched the boxer shorts he was fine.

The dribbles are a problem as you get older. I often stand at the urinal looking like I'm casting for trout,as I attempt to ensure I've shaken off the drips.
I usually fail of course. It usually happens just as I leave the facility and begin the march down the high street,in my new cream coloured pants.
The stain of shame.

I have pretty much the same problem but I haven't hit sixty yet. I have found that buying canary yellow undies solves the problem nicely. I think I may have submitted my brainwave to the Viz Top Tips Department....or did I read it there? scratch
