How many times do you rewear the same underwear before washing it?

hate doing this -- 0

I'm thinking this is probably only something guy's do? If I'm out of underwear because I haven't done laundry (which happens all too frequently now that I'm working so much) I just go without. I'll wear a bra 2-3 times before washing it though but that's different.

its not something this guy does - gross. id wear brand new underwear every day if i cld

i have back up underwear that i never use unless i'm out of "good" underwear -- also from what i've gleaned irl, this might split down the boxers/briefs divide

I just go without

yes!!!!

0. Might be more acceptable if you wear boxers but i wear briefs and i don't really want to be putting back on something that's been so close to the nasty boys for a day.

lmao dammit tell me it isn't only me please.

Lamp - there was an episode of Cribs with some rapper (forget who) who never wore a pair of sneakers twice. He had hundreds of boxes of brand new sneakers which he would wear once then donate to charity. You could be like him only with underwear. Probably couldn't donate your used shorts though.

It might be possible for guys to do this, but not for women.

Maybe my ex was a tranny. she sure as hell did it. then again she also wore dresses covered in cat hair without even bothering to lint roll it off

come to think of it to this day i've never witnessed her brush her teeth either

That's a very private act.

Yes, very dif. for the ladies, ahem.

someone start the poll re: bra washing, though.

^^ I would but it would just end up like the towel washing and toilet flushing threads I started and wind up either making me think that everyone is a clean/germ freak or that I'm a disgusting savage which I'm pretty sure I'm not.

When it comes to bras, I'd fall on the disgusting savage side, I'm afraid...

Yeah, same. I said 2-3 times but it's really more like 5-6.

Unless I'm sweating or something. Went skiing yesterday in near 70 degree weather and that bra went straight into the wash.

I am much more disgusting. That is all.

i feel gross about 2 but i'll do it.

i will admit during periods of unemployment i went 3+

and then the underwear became self-aware

i've "reworn once" a few times, i think after getting drunk instead of doing laundry. hungover + wearing dirty underwear = pretty harsh

hungover + wearing dirty underwear = pretty harsh

lol

punk rock changed my life

"Do They Owe Us Silk Boxers? of course they fuckin' do"

i'm with kate78 on the bra thing. i own a million pairs of underwear but i'm totally lazy about washing the 4 bras i own.

this will go down the 'how many times do you shower' divide

fwiw i'm a boxer briefs guy on some days, boxers on the other, but no tightie whities....

the white bra needs to be getting somewhat gray before I'm spurred into action...

hahahaha that's why i don't usually buy white ones!

(slinks off to start load of towels and bras...)

The only way I'll ever wear a pair of knickers twice is if I'm stuck somewhere overnight with no way of getting fresh ones. And even then, heck, there's usually an M&S in every city.

Bras I try to wear 2 times, 3 times if I haven't been very sweaty. I used to be able to wear bras for longer when I was younger and my breasts were somewhat smaller (I've never been small breasted, so this is a relative thing) - these days it's just punnishing for the fabric. Bras have to go back into the wash to get shrunk back into enough shape to actually be supportive.

I should get some better fitting bras, perhaps. I know my breasts have grown and I haven't upsized my bras to go with that.

1-2. With shirts and t-shirts my standard is that if I recoil when I go in with the nose, it's for the wash, but being a man of high standards any smell from the underwear makes it no go.

can't do this.

Never more than once, and then only (ONLY!) if it's underwear that I wore for 20 minutes right after a shower, just to run to the grocery, then casually tossed on the floor before some quality naked bedtime. This happens often enough. The problem with this is that full-on dirty underwear often ends up on the same floor, and while there is a simple sniff test to figure out which is which, when you put a pair of undies in your face and the answer turns out to be "OMG NO NO NO A THOUSAND TIMES NO", you really question the wisdom of ever sniffing your underwear at all.

I don't know that bras should even count here, though I am interpreting the thread creator's intent. (I am not an Originalist.)

At any rate, while boobs can get sweaty and gross like any other part of the body, boob funk is nothing even remotely like butt funk. And thank Jesus for that.

wait if you go commando, do you wash the pants immediately afterwards?

kenan you sleep naked?

what's wrong w that

sleeping naked is awesome

logically you'd have to change your sheets every night then

it's not like your crotch is *on* the sheets
unless you sleep in a really weird position

or you get a sheets wedgie

pretty sure I don't get the bedclothes wedged up in my ass crack at night

but I'm asleep, I can't be sure

maybe if u hump the bed

people sweat when they sleep

only if the temp. is fucked up. i mean let's not compare sleeping w/walking around all day.

i don't re-use underwear because if you put on used underwear it just feels different & gross -- sheets don't retain that feeling

there may be leakage

go to the doctor

agreed!

you guys are being all inconsistent

you're spelling "incontinent" wrong

don't project your leakage onto everybody else

sleeping naked after sex without washing up first c/d

Not washing is ok. But do you at least wipe? If not you are a SAVAGE etc.

BTW if you have ever felt like your skin is dry in the genital region, fucking and then falling asleep still wearing your own fuck filth is the cure for this. Most amazing skin conditioner ever.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalright

:{

mexican pizza just came out of my mouth and nose

If my sentence is guilty of anything, it is telling too much truth. (And possibly telling it badly.)

Filth was a bad choice.

ts: fuckwant vs fuckfilth

I change my underwear at least once a day, but I might wear pajama bottoms two nights in a row before changing. Please change your underwear everyday, people.

A while ago, I couldn't afford a whole weeks worth of underwear and would try and postpone laundry day by reusing them. My private, personal terms for underwear that smelled too bad to be used again were "bricked" and "adobed".

This has been too much information.

Not all of us leave artwork in our trousers each day. Some of us are sanitary.

Oh man, "how many times do you rewear your pajama bottoms before washing" could be a whole 'nother poll/ball of wax!

going commando while wearing jeans with gaping holes in the asscrack and/or crotch c/d

the sad thing is that he was eating cereal at the time

goddammit dude I read this ^^^^^^ as I was finishing a taco anda lmost laughed meat and cream out of my nose.

Ear, nose and throat doctors should be alerted to this thread. Whole new customer base developing here.

This has been too much information.

Should be attached to every post on this board, like an email signature.

This thread has given me some horrible mental images of kenan, naked save for his "fuckfilth", sniffing his own underpants.

That confluence of events is rare.

I found that essence le kenan rare

"truffles"

does underwear rust

metaphorically, yes

The nice thing about underwear is they're small, meaning if you don't want to do all of your laundry, you can wash your undies in the sink.

Just don't let anyone see you doing that. Because it looks like the saddest activity in the world short of... well... something sadder than that. Like starving to death in a pile of sub-Sarahan dirt.

new boxers, socks, towel and shirt/t-shirt everyday. will wear a pair of trousers or a hoody about 3-4 times before washing, though.

clean, rather than new, sry

Clean socks every time I take my socks off actually. May also wash my feet in the sink in between wears. I really wish I could apply this level of grooming to my underwear situation.

Rewearing the same socks 4-5 days in a row c/d

classic, especially when they start getting stiff.

I have to admit I'm guilty of the latter. I'm a slob so I just kinda drop clothes all over the place and then suddenly I can never find socks. so I wear the same 2 for several days,

ewww... my feet would get all sweaty and itchy. although i do have to wear socks in bed during the winter, which isn't ideal, but i'd be too cold to sleep otherwise.

my feet stench resembles that of old porridge

i have no trouble finding socks, lately

that's prett foot-unate

Just went to Wal-Mart and bought 4 more pairs of pajamas based on this thread.

ILTMI: Promoting social change

WTF kind of question is this?

You didn't answer the question.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

lame.

Yes, it is really lame to have clean underwear.

ABSOLUTELY. although, to be hypocritical, I think I'd rather not be around our stankin and anti-laundry people.

I voted 1-2 but to be fair, it's only "1", and I dont' do it if I don't have to.

absolutely hate doing this but I hate even more forgetting if the underwear I have on is last night's or if I changed it.

because getting old and memory sucks

In the time of covid and remote work and general malaise, I confess that I sometimes look down and realize I've been wearing the same clothes for two and a half days. I am not proud of this.

That said, I don't think I put unwashed clothing back _on_, it's more that I have just let myself slide a bit into slovenly laziness.
