      Emily Gladser this is in NYC in the early 1990’s, so when I went to this factory, it’s in a warehouse looking building. The workers would sew the clothes together and everything goes on the floor until they are finished with the batch. I saw a cat walking around and I’m assuming that the cat was there cause there’s probably rodents roaming around the warehouse so I’m pretty sure they crawled all over the clothes and no one would wash the clothing after it’s sewn and given to the retailers. I’m absolutely sure the conditions in other countries are much worst than in NYC where most clothing are made.

    There are two main reasons for wearing underwear. First is to keep your outer-clothes clean as you would often re-wear outer-wear clothes multiple times throughout the week as washing clothes was an allday event. The second is as foundation garments, meaning they aid in the fit and look of the outer-clothes.

      An opening and a hole is not the same thing. You need to take a math class to study some topology. Even if there is an opening for the abdomen and openings for the legs, there are still only two holes. Maybe you could have a look at this video to learn what a hole is: czcams.com/video/egEraZP9yXQ/video.html&t=573

    Here's another data point for your survey! I am a 34 year old woman, and I only buy briefs. Not only that, I am extremely picky about them! I get a specific brand and fabric (Fruit of the Loom, 50% cotton/polyester), because that is the only way I feel comfortable. The reason behind this is that I'm autistic, and have mild tactile sensitivity (most mild of my various sensory sensitivities). This limits my options for fabrics, as some feel really scratchy. I have tried bikini style and high cut style before, but those styles cause noticeably more discomfort than the briefs and I find myself adjusting them a lot more than normal in a vain attempt to alleviate that discomfort.

    Going commando isn’t that bad actually. I stopped wearing panties a couple years ago for no other reason than just for the heck of it. Hygienic wise, there’s really no difference for me. I don’t have any chaffing, or discomfort from friction either. It’s super convenient not to have that extra layer under many circumstances too. The only exception I wear underwear now is if I’m wearing skirts or dresses that are above the knee in length… for obvious reasons. It may not be for everyone, but hey, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it!

    My husband is allergic to polyester and usually this is not a problem, he loves denim. He herniated his belly and was recommended this spandex tank top to assist. While in the ER with a massive allergic reaction we discovered the "spandex" was part polyester. I will never get him out of denim now.

    I hate the limited options for women’s underwear as far as the cut of the fabric, I know this didn’t focus much on the history of undergarments but there is so much more info out there and a nice long bloomers style undergarment is so much more comfortable, bit more snug to fit modern clothing styles so more like boxer briefs for girls which I have rarely seen and then for some reason the length is way shorter when they make them for girls.
    I call for undergarment revolution!! 🙃

    As a girl I literally own several pairs of cotton boy shorts cuz those are so comfortable. Don't know if others relate or it's just me being weird again😄 anyway this vid was so informative, thanks Dr Mike

    I remember my mom telling me, "Remember to wear clean underwear in case you have to to go to the hospital." But, what if someone goes to the hospital, and doesn't have on any underwear? Is that a step up or a step down?
