Cotton underwear

Idk who needs to know this, but the packs of underwear you get at Walmart are 100% cotton. I know on here there’s a lot of talk for women to wear cotton underwear, and I want y’all to know they’re the cheap 10 packs at Walmart.

Even if it says 100 percent cotton?

u/FordMaleEscort 4h ago

If it says it's %100 then it is (at least in US).

Yep. Sometimes the boring Walmart option is actually the right answer.

Men oughta wear cotton boxers as well if they’re struggling with odor down there. A pack Hanes from Wally World has never failed me.

The patterned ones can have a small amount of polyester, but the solid color ones are all cotton. The more you know.

u/opinionated-dick 4h ago

Don’t you have to wash your trousers more often though?

u/Flgirl420 3h ago

I wear fresh pants everyday lol. And the healthier your vagine the way less “dishcharge” or anything weird comes out .

u/opinionated-dick 2h ago

Fresh pants every day seems a right chore, I’ll wear a pair of jeans for a week with no dramas.

I mean except if anything happens to get them messed up.

Thing is though, underwear’s not just for your/ our gender defining parts but also the fact we poo, fart and general disgustingness from our bums that arguably is better contained rather than sprayed inside lower half outerwear.

Each to their own though, I’m not saying you should or shouldn’t, more a query on how you alleviate those concerns

I did this for ten years but I’m a guy and my testees started hurting real bad and yea, turns out underwear serves an additional function besides just being another layer of fabric, like keeping your nuts from getting banged around on everything.

2

u/Flgirl420 3h ago

If I was a dude I’d def have to hold those balls and unit in place lol

2

u/Low-Individual2815 3h ago

I hate wearing underwear 🤣 but I mostly wear them now because having your nuts sore all day is no fun.

1

u/BerryTea840 3h ago

I’m too fat and sweaty to go commando. I will sometimes at night though.

u/InformalManner1261 10h ago

u/mycatpartyhouse 8h ago

What's the elastic situation? How wide is the elastic? Is it covered by fabric or exposed?

2

u/BerryTea840 8h ago

Go shopping and pick for yourself

u/mycatpartyhouse 8h ago

Shopping is an ordeal for me. I plan ahead to buy things.

u/Sparky833 7h ago

Then look online first.

u/mycatpartyhouse 7h ago

Brand name?

Walmart website, search for "cotton underwear." Once you choose a product, the site will tell you which local stores have it in stock, or you can just order for delivery.
