I’ve always been curious, because I’m not fond of underwear, but I don’t know how people make it work. Wouldn’t you have to wash the trousers every single day? How else would you keep them fresh? Do you use special deodorant for the area or panty liners on the trousers?
Tell your story.
nah, im not on board at all. first of all, i’m a folder every time. no disrespect to crumplers, but that’s a no from me. second, this guide says to use a wet wipe but makes NO MENTION of the fact that you should under no circumstances flush wet wipes. that’s a serious oversight. finally, team bidet forever.
interesting! I’ve never heard of people preferring to crumple their paper.
Cheap single ply gets crumpled but the normal multi-ply TP gets folded nicely.
I think people that swear by going “commando” just haven’t tried good underwear. I will not wear anything but under armour underwear. If anybody else has any other suggestions please let me know. These are the best I can find. They are expensive. That’s the only downside.
I exclusively wear Exo Foccio Give n Go boxer briefs
Expensive as hell, but soo worth it - a pair lasts me years before the elastic gives out, and they’re so comfortable
I’ve been pretty happy with MeUndies but they can also get expensive, and since it’s a subscription I can actually rotate out or throw away pairs that are starting to go. 10/10 comfort, 7/10 overall experience
I’ve used those before. The problem i have is the cotton. I need the material that under armour uses. Cotton makes me sweat and it bunches up easily. It also loses its shake easily over time.
How are this many people getting their dick stuck in zippers? Is average lemmy age 9?
I will say that personally, I do have to take extra special precautions due to non-painful external hemorrhoids. It really does make things extra annoying to clean.
I won’t describe further, but in my case, underwear are a must :/
Hemorrhoids isn’t something that goes away after a few days. When its not painful, surgery is far worse than living with it.
I tell you what, catch your tallywacker in a zipper just once and it will break you of this. Happened to me about 4 years old, and I vividly remember my dad having to yank the zipper back down. NEVER AGAIN.
Happened to me a few times when I was a kid. I just learned to be careful and it hasn’t been a problem since.
How’d you get the beans above the frank?
Well it wasn’t my nutsack that got caught. But honestly at that point in time, I seriously doubt it matters. It was just pain, followed by more pain.
He’s a kangaroo. Duh!
/Jk
This checks out
FRANK AND BEEAAAAAAANS!
My toes curled reading this. Not in a good way.
Now you need a good toe-curling [perverted]
Edit: I’m glad we could see it my way lol
Agreed
Really sorry. Not gonna lie, it gave me a little ptsd, and this happened sooo long ago.
Oh no worries, you have my sympathy, your suffering was worse than mine!
There’s trousers without zippers, you know.

Unrelated but nice Uname. Praise Tom Servo.
Happened to one of my classmates in primary school. Was funny for us then, but it must’ve been hell for that dude.
It would only be a some of the time thing for me, putting some on for professional settings or such where it’s probably more “needed.”
At home, install a bidet and use it well.
Also, be mindful and don’t needlessly grind your ass on the furniture, if that’s like, you know, one of your things.
So when you say use a bidet well you don’t mean use it as a water fountain, right?
I feel that is a personal choice everyone should make for themselves, but you are correct, it’s for butts only here.
Yeah, you’re not even supposed to leave skidmarks on your underwear. Are people not using the toilet paper?
Do some people really consider skidmarks a normal thing
You should probably see a doctor about that, that’s not normal.
So fucking salty you don’t know how to wipe your own ass looooooooooooooool
If only there were medical professions who could help you asses if this is something unique to you and help you with your hygiene.
“Uuuuhhhrrrrrrrr this is normal and happens to everyone hurrrrr”
projection at its finest my dude
This is indeed a you problem and not a men problem.
Lol
Way to out yourself, skiddo.
Just use dishsoap if it gets that bad
One of our greatest weaknesses as a species in my view
LMAO this guy has an itchy asshole
The man with an itchy asshole wakes up with a stinky finger.
I on the other hand wish you a bidet and more fiber.
I have a bidet.
I think the fiber intake and track record of “SHARON!” level shits is what loosened my balloon knot.
I have now doubled down on my gypsy curse on you.
Omg, do keegles bro. Also helps with ED
I don’t think this means you should have shit in/on your pants, though. I’m in my 40s and have am not leaving skidmarks, even with a condition that can make toilet visits more messy/unpleasent. Wait until you’re fully finished. Use a bidet if possible. Get more fibre.
Even then, emphaticlally no, unless your bidet has a non-invasive or even invasive pipe-cleaning function.
Even literal poo disapproves.
Which I do, and do!
I don’t think OP is necessarily talking about skid marks. By nature of a dark, warm, and humid environment with more sweat glands than other areas, things like your crotch and armpits will start to smell quicker than something like your elbow, even if you exercise proper hygiene. It’s just the nature of how our bodies function.
I change to a new pair of underwear daily, but I might use the same pair of pants multiple days in a row. If you do this while going commando, your pants might start to smell and you’d probably need to change them daily like you do for underwear.
And this is a bit TMI, but for women specifically, around time of ovulation each month (mid cycle) can mean an annoying discharge of mucus. This is totally normal and healthy and doesn’t mean there’s any degree of infection. It happens when an egg is released. It’s easy to deal with if you just need to change your underwear. But now if you have to deal with it getting in your pants it’s a bit more of an ordeal.
With something like jeans if I’m not doing something overly active or anything it seems like a waste to wash them daily. Take something like a jacket, for example, which is worn multiple times before washing. I don’t do it if I’m sweating a lot in my clothes, but if I’m not doing anything super active then they are definitely good for a few days.
I don’t do it with shirts because now your pits are involved and clothing that touches those should be laundered each time to avoid smells imo.
Well, jeans are an exception. I will wear them multiple times between washes, but generally not multiple days in a row. And if it’s crotch hugging (like my jeans normally are), then I’m more inclined to wear undies. But loose pants etc, that don’t crotch hug and aren’t likely to be worn several days running, I’m less inclined to wear undies.
I have no clue how people would do it, since I don’t even understand how other men can wear boxers without accidentally giving their nuts a good squeeze sometimes. Tight briefs keep those out of harm’s way.
I don’t get boxers either. It’s just going commando with an extra step. The sole thing you stand to gain (support) is nonexistent with boxers. I don’t know why people bother.
Boxers provide a layer between you and the pants. With commando the pants would need washing sooner.
You should wash your pants dude
Everyday?

Jeans def don’t need to be washed every day
This. Jeans are also far more comfortable on the 2nd+ wear.
I wind up getting claustrophobic in briefs and have to adjust a lot more than when I’m in boxers. And I bother with wearing boxers because they are softer than the fabric of the pants I wear.
If you’re claustrophobic with that much space, doesn’t that mean sex and other activities involving small orifices are gonna be problematic for you?
amazes me how careless people can be. like tuck your shit down, zip your pants up. not difficult. just pay attention to what you’re doing. if you can’t handle that, button fly.
I’m not talking about getting them jammed in the zipper, I’m talking about getting them pinched between my leg and my torso.
What do you have on your crotch that you think is so dangerous to be exposed to should it get on cloth?
Into all things a touch of care is required.
as in all things…
Better or no?
You touched?
Is that that old-timey slur?
No, it is an interrogative.
I don’t get what you meant tbh
To all the comments saying their junk has been caught in their zipper, I know a guy that swears by jock straps. Says they don’t bunch up or make you sweat a bunch since it’s basically just a strip of fabric over/around Wingus and the Ping Pong boys with some elastic bands to keep it there. I tried one once and threw it away after a day of wearing it so they’re not for everyone, but could be something to look into.
If your genitals aren’t made for jousting… thongs are the closest I can think of I guess? I don’t have any experience with having that configuration
I literally had to muddle on the topic of genitals made for jousting for a few moments. Well played, well said.

Maybe, just maybe he was into bottoming
I mean he was, but he also wore them for comfort
Duuuuude, or dudette. Let me tell you a story.
One about people with certain waist ratios, and heavy manual labour, and what all that motion can do to underwear.
I recently moved houses, and for the first time ever (after decades of experience), chose to forgo undies and go commando in sweatpants for this recent ordeal.
Boy howdy. Let me tell you all the ways it was awesome. Sweat induced induction to asscrack, is but one of them. But likely the most important, the Knock-on ride-up effect. Also gone.
Also to actually elaborate on OPs question because i got distracted replying to replies.
Wear the same boxers for a few days. How do they smell? Wear the same jeans for a few days. Compare.
As a dude, I can tell you, for me they do not. But that going commando reduces my lifespan for clothes without washing.
Also, bidet user, ftr Edit - and aaaalso, i was married, and lmty, there is definitely a gender gap here.
I go commando in the summer unless I’m working. I just wear basketball shorts and have no problems.
Kilts.
I used to go commando. However, after one incident with a bit of errant flesh caught in my zipper, I reconsidered the error of my ways.
A little too the left
I consider underwear bourgeois decadence, same as socks
You can have my socks
