If I am on an overnight trip at a hotel and I forgot a swim suit can I wear my underwear in the hotel pool?

We are talking about tight non see through boxer briefs because technically wearing a swimsuit is already wearing underwear I just wondering this because I seen a guy do it before and I was wondering if it was ok or weird

I guess it depends on the hotel policy. Some hotels might ask you to leave the pool if you're in underwear. See the vibe of the hotel and depending on what you see make a decision.

Can you, technically yes. I would never do that tho. Underwear is a different material and can become see through and dosent stay put when wet

Oh, I totally get the pickle you're in! 😅 While I totally understand the thought process, wearing underwear as a substitute for a swimsuit probably isn't the best idea. Since swimsuits are specifically designed for swimming, they're made from materials that hold up better in chlorine and saltwater, dry faster, and are more hygienic for public swimming spaces. Underwear, while it might look similar, isn't built for that, and it might end up being a bit see-through when wet, even if it doesn't seem like it when dry. Also, hotel pools often have rules against swimming in anything but proper swimwear for health and safety reasons. If you really want to take a dip, some hotels actually sell swimsuits, or there might be a store nearby where you could pick one up! That way, you can enjoy the pool without any worries. 😊

Can you? I guess. Should you? I'd say that's weird and I wouldn't personally do it. Let me put it this way: I would wonder what on earth a guy was thinking if I saw that, and think he was cheap and a bit clueless. And believe me, it would be obvious because of the material and style. No offense, and good for you asking! It's definitely an unusual question, and probably other guys have wondered that, too.

I've done that a few times, wearing a pair of shorts once, and boxers another time, when I didn't have my suit with me. I did that when the pool was mostly empty, because even though it's not see-through, when boxers and shorts get wet, it's pretty obvious what's inside. 😉

No, you cannot.
