Do you wear knickers in bed?

Oh no please how could anyone wear knickers under tights? Sounds positively crazy to me.

Ana I have done just that when I have had somewhat baggy tights. I don't want tights next to my bits skin, I prefer cotton pants, and over the tights some 'magic knickers' to make sure the tights don't droop down and drive me mad. The two varieties of knickers are known here as 'unders' and 'overs'.

This really is a very entertaining thread. Why stop at knickers under and over your tights, who wears their bra over their vest?
I'm sure I used to know someone who did!

Goodness! Why stop there? Why not wear one pair of knickers under your tights and one on top? Mind-boggling...

To digress somewhat, do you wear pants under or over your tights? Years ago a friend was surprised that I wore mine under. Unless they were the knicker/tights combination one used to be able to get, I wouldn't want nylon next to my 'bits'! She said wearing them over stopped the 'web-legged' look if tights decended.

I wear a nightie in bed with no knickers but when DH used to go away on business trips I always wore knickers as well, not sure why. I had a friend who did the same and she also used to hide all her sharp knives when her husband was away !

And that reminds me of the old joke 'Nicholas Parsons shouldn't climb trees'... (or groan...)

With apologies for going off at a tangent.

As you were

All this talk of knickers has reminded me of one of my favourite "Two Ronnies" jokes. It came at the end of their show one week:

Ronnie C: "Next week we'll be talking to a lady who likes Nicholas Parsons."
Ronnie B: "And a parson who likes knickerless ladies."

I've loved reading every bodies take on this subject

I go with Marilyn Monroe, just a touch of perfume!!

Well...I absolutely don't do the knicker thing in bed at home however I most certainly would in hospital!

Can't imagine wearing knickers AND PJ's to bed - I'd think that I was almost dressed...don't like feeling all trussed up..and tbh if there was a fire during the night, I think that my knickerless state would be the least of my worries!!

Just goes to show, as if we didn't know already - we are all different and what suits one is anathema to another!

Vive la difference..it's what makes life interesting!

Never wear knickers in bed, get too warm. It's also unhygienic. Always wear a short sleeve nightie in summer and a long sleeved one in winter.

Surely if you have a warm duvet you don't need to wear several layers of clothing in bed. I don't see the point.

I hope he disapproves of them for himself, as well! Matching his'n'her nighties?

If a man disapproved of my pjs, he would not be sharing my bed and if he voiced it he would quite likely not be sharing the same house.

Nothing for me or DH either, we have dressing gowns to hand if required. This has only proved to be a problem on a couple of occasions when DC (darling cat) brought us the gift of a mouse in the middle of the night and DH forgot to put on said dressing gown before opening front door to free mouse ..... fortunately we live at the end of a driveway off a cul-de-sac so no-one was shocked and horrified!

It has never crossed my mind to wear knickers in bed! Long nighties here; husband disapproves of pyjamas.

and, I'm jolly glad to hear it down

Setting a fine example there downtoearth

I only wear Angel perfume in bed...and no knickers in the bath ...and I dont pee in the bed

I always wear something in bed - even if it is hot, I like to have something that soaks up the sweat.

The last person (only other???) to ask me that question was dgd, aged 8, and I think she and her sister had recently started to get interested in what their parents don't wear in bed......hmmm

I have not had a bath now for years for the same reasons. If I got in it would be like the sinking of the Titanic and I would never get out again. I had to have the bath removed to have a decent sized shower fitted.

I wish I could bathe occasionally Charleygirl, I'd love to lay back in a nice bubbly bath once in a while although I prefer my daily shower , its just not possible with my knees and hips they just don't want to 'bend' enough .

I quite agree tanith- you, like me have a daily shower or bath so we are clean.
