What's the use of underwear?

[Stan Loh]

Something I've been trying to figure out. Why wear underwear? But ah, this isn't a debate of boxers vs briefs. I'm not a big fan of wearing underwear as I almost never wear any at home and maybe 10% of the time when going out. I think the only reason I actually wear them when I go out is that I don't feel so empty and it supports my balls but I think this feeling is just there because I was brought up that way. People have not been using underwear for thousands of years. Why is it that in this time and day, it is used? I cannot understand why. What's the real purpose of underwear?

Hygiene, easier cleaning. Also in some places it gets cold.

Clearly, the purpose of underwear is to act as a barrier. Something needs to absorb the piss droplets that no matter how hard you shake it after taking a wizz end up in your pants. Do you really want to walk back to the bar after taking a leak with a piss stain on the front of your Levi's? No you don't want that and neither do we. Commando style is for freaky chicks only.

your balls sweat dude... it's easier to wash a small piece of underwear/boxer over and over daily than wash your jeans daily.

also, cotton is softer on your privates than some of the fabrics used in pants. have you ever worn linen pants? i haven't but i've seen people in europe wear them, and i'm assuming that's not super comfy... and imagine wool on your groin

I looked through a shop window yesterday and saw a tanned and attractive young sales assistant bending over. She was wearing tight black trousers, and I got a nice glimpse of ass-cleavage. It made me wonder when you see that - no g-string, no knickers - just ass - does it mean the girl isn't wearing underwear? Or does it mean she is wearing super-low-cut undies?

Sorry, no pics. Maybe next time.

In case you poop your pants in public.

Maybe the underwear has fallen down slightly.

[luckyjimm]

Yes, I guess they move down with the trousers.

So you don't get your hoo hoo stuck in your zipper.

Prevents your dick from rubbing against the material of your trousers and chaffing.
