How many of you women go commando (no knickers) under your pantyhose (tights in UK)? If so do you do so on a regular basis or just once in a while?

[joseschmoe]

I had at least 1 girlfriend who did this on a regular everyday basis. She had to wear pantyhose to work everyday. Other girlfriends did it more so to turn me on. How about you?

There's proper pantyhose for that actually. I only did it once because the dress was too fit and because of its fabric too, but it's not such a great feeling. I would definitely not go to work with just pantyhose.

[joseschmoe]

dipta, you're from japan. the land of pantystocking as they call it there. there women wear pantystockings all the time. I know. I used to go there many many times for biz. Do the majority of women there in Japan wear underwear with their pantyhose or not? Please fill me in.

[dipta]

Thank you for MH.
Well, like I said, you're supposed to wear underwear under regular pantyhose and that's what every girl I've seen in the lockers and such do. I don't know what they do in their private lives, but most people like to dress properly in the streets - as in, covering up.
Not wearing underwear under the pantyhose sounds like a fetich, to be honest.

[joseschmoe]

well I can say that one time in Japan I was with this Japanese girl and she did wear underwear underneath her pantyhose. But like I said I know a few women here in the US who go commando and at least several girlfriends I've had in the past who used to do that in a regular basis. When I asked them that they said to me. "Look, the reason it's called pantyhose is because it's panty + hose. so wearing panty with pantyhose is redundant." I agree. Would you agree with that?

[dipta]

No. Sorry, I would not.
I'm not an English native speaker, but it seems to me 'pantyhose' is more related to 'pants' in terms of the origin of the word than it's with 'panties'. Maybe they don't wear underwear on a regular basis too.

[joseschmoe]

hello dipta the origin of the word is similar to how it evolved in your language, japanese. パンティーストッキング. it means panty (as in underwear) with stocking. that is underwear with stockings built in. i believe in the early days of pantyhose or pantystocking in your country, women took the idea literally. that is no panties. but due to yeast infections women changed their minds. Do you agree with all this?

[dipta]

"パンティストッキングは当初の着用法としてパンティを穿かずに着用する事を想定されていたが、購買者の女性達の羞恥心からパンティを着用してからその上にパンティストッキングを重ねて着用する様になった。"

According to wikipedia, they never wore it without panties because they were too embarrassed.
In my native language (which is not Japanese) it merely means "long socks you can wear as pants". Anyway, we all know these stockings have been around way longer than any other underwear, at least in other countries. Point is, they weren't made of the same thin fabrics as the modern ones. I don't know about yeast infections, but it doesn't sound very hygienic to wear them without underwear. And does it really matter anyway?

[joseschmoe]

You're not from Japan? but your profile states your country is Japan? I don't understand. Please explain.

[joseschmoe]

regarding your comment if it matters or not, it does matter in the way that some women consider themselves more sexy if they do it that way, and especially their boyfriends/husbands consider it a real turn on. I know that in the past some of my girlfriends I had did it to turn me on. and it worked! Would you agree this is a reason?

[dipta]

I live in Japan but I'm not Japanese.

I agree girls go to great lengths to look sexy these days. Personally, I don't find pantyhose sexy; if I wanted to look sexy, I would wear the ones that stop on your thighs and would make a decent arrangement. Not wearing underwear only makes a girl look trashy... Personally, I would feel cheap.
To each their one. I guess it'd be wiser not to stereotype an entire population.

[joseschmoe]

dipta, you said you were not japanese but living in Japan? where are you from? Korea? China?

[joseschmoe]

So where are you from?

[dipta]

Geez, it's not like I'm obliged to tell you where I'm from. It doesn't matter anyway.

No underwear with pantyhose is extremely uncomfortable.

So, I don't go commando lol.
Only go commando without the hose.

[JenniferS]

[toesies]
