I have tried them all!! Both Men's and Women's!!

Now days I just wear men's boxer briefs... women's undies just kink my catheter line...
Pro-they have the lovely front opening which I can thread my supra-public through and it helps me prevent kinks in my catheter while I am out and going!!
Pro-there is a large assortment of colors and patterns to choose from!!
Con-they are MENS underwear...
Pro-I look good in them!! he he LMAO
Con-Hmmm let me see there has to be something else I don't like about them... Ummm nope that was it...

So what do you wear??

What are your pro's and Con's??

Well, I tend to go for the mens "Free Willie" type most days cause I too have a supertube (suprapubic) and over time I found that any other way tends to just be a pain in the pisser, down the thighs, n in the plain ol ass-torrhoids :mfromg: :helpme: , lol jk. Never liked the kiddie, scibbie, wibbie, butt-huggers so always wore regular boxers for like the 1st 4 years but getting them all unwaded and straightened out after I'd get in my chair, and then yet keeping them straight throughout the day, was a &!tch. So then I started using the mens boxer briefs just cause they'd stay on where they're supposed to whether moving around or not...most of the time. Even those had their twists now n then. After a while, just got tired of messing with them, period. Low n behold, found it to be way more comfortable as well cause nothing bothered my cath. PLUS, that's 1 less pain in the butt that I don't have to pick out, buy, put away, get out, put on, straighten out, take off, wash, dry, fold, n put away again all the time (get the idea, lol). I still wear them now n then, depending on what I wear, but for the most part, you know.
If I had to choose, though, it'd be the boxer briefs...like I said :th_driving1: .

I found it, I found it . . . I'm just not adept enough to know how to cut and paste the link to my post:

I like the VS scalloped low rise (and the matching bras). They're super smooth, tagless and seamless...and there's almost nothing to them. And I have ventured back into 'some' girlie clothes this summer and will still wear a thong with a slip dress!

:D I suppose I should have named this topic "Underwear or No-Underwear" :)
I unfortunately also have to still wear a diaper at times since my bowels have a mind of there own! So even if I wanted to go "all natural" I couldn't do it all the time, that's for sure! :P

You 'no underware' people must have heaps of laundry, not to mention the expense of dry cleaning! Almost all of my work clothes require dry cleaning and it would simply be too expensive to dry clean all of my pants/skirts/dresses after one wear.

you have to try it out City Girl. you won't ever have to worry about under lines, never get a wedgie, no worries if you shart, you're sitting all the time anyways so no one will see even if you leak (for those of you who cath) you can always just put something on your lap (less suspicious then trrying to hold something, front n back,, or trying to change quick, less laundry to clean up too, less laundry period, one less thing to pick out, fold, put away, put on, take off, ummm I can't think of anything else but somethings missing. anyways, get the point? easier access in those heated moments too :lmao: !

My sister-in-law wears men's boxer-briefs, too (and she's AB).

As for me, well, I think Cosmo Kramer said it best, "My boys need a house...With boxers I'm flipping and flopping...I feel like a naked innocent boy roaming the countryside."

I intermittent cath, so that should explain it.

Do you mean while you're still in them? :mfromg:



Okay, since this is a discussion on undewear there's something I've never understood . . . SKIDMARKS! :doh: Is this just a guy thing or what? Anybody watch that Sex and the City episode where Steve moves in with Miranda and she goes to wash clothes and OH BOY!


Oh sorry Bouncer, not really referring to you, I mean I don't know you all that well.
