Looking for a Life Without Underwear
My mom told me from an early age to never wear underwear to bed under my pajama pants. She said “lady parts need to be aired out.” She didn’t say that exactly, but it was something like that. Maybe she said “the vagina needs to breath.” As I got older I learned she was right. I don’t want to smother my vagina. Wearing undies all the time can cause a few problems. It can cause chafing, possible yeast infection, or possible urinary tract infection. Most people may never experience these things from wearing underwear. However, there is that chance it could happen. A lot of physicians agree and even recommend ditching the unmentionables. Not wearing underwear or “going commando” just feels better.
“Going” commando” is slang for going without underwear. It has also been called “free balling”. I should come up with a new term because I don’t have balls obviously! “Going commando” is a term that came about because some soldiers in the military stopped wearing underwear. They went without underwear to prevent chafing. There are also the men who don’t wear undies under their kilts. So if men can ”go commando” why can’t women?
As I got older and my friends found out that I didn’t wear underwear they thought it was weird. Most people think that underwear should be worn at all times. They feel weird without their underwear security blanket. The people I talked into trying a few nights without the undies were uncomfortable at first. Ironically they felt naked “going commando.” Now they never want to be constricted by undies again. Why do we have to wear underwear in the first place? A lot of people have had problems with certain types of underwear, like thongs for instance. How is a string up a person’s butt natural? There wouldn’t be underwear lines if underwear was absent in the first place.
Women are not like men. We don’t have anything to hide or anything that swings around. We don’t have to wear underwear to contain anything. Going without underwear just feels natural to me. I hate underwear and I dread having to wear it when I go out of the house. Most people think it would be uncomfortable with certain pants like jeans, but it feels fine to me. There are times when underwear is unavoidable like when the monthly gift comes to visit. Especially if a person wears a pad as opposed to a tampon. I think everyone should try ditching the undies. It might be weird at first, but most people never look back. Plus going without undies is a way to safe money in this economy because it will be one less thing to buy.
