Greetings Dear Readers!
I hope you are well and wearing something pretty. First, a shout out to Nathan, who suggested a blog topic about lingerie. Thanks, Nathan. What a fun topic! Because the word “lingerie” covers such a large array of clothing, I’m going to limit this blog to the topic of panties – a topic I know you are all totally into, as am I.
The great majority of us got our start in cross-dressing with panties. A good number of us started by exploring mom’s or sister’s panty drawer and then progressed to buying our own. Some folks, once they are adults, limit themselves to underdressing under their everyday male clothing, while others of us progressed on to bras, hosiery, and finally outer clothing.
I was a late starter, having begun with underdressing in middle age. Do you remember the thrill of that first time you slipped into a pair of panties? I was so amazed by the choices. With men’s underwear, you have a choice of tighty whities or boxers. Of course, you could expand that to uh, tighty whities or boxers. Of course, you can also find male thongs, usually in, of all places, swimwear. With panties, you’ve got this amazing variety of styles, colors, and fabrics. Xdress/Body Aware has a huge selection, ranging from pretty grannies to bikinis, thongs, G-strings, tap pants, tangas – ah the list goes on! And the fabrics! Lace, satin, cotton, polyester. I’m all about comfort, and men’s underwear does not begin to measure up to the comfortable styles and fabrics of Xdress panties.
It’s interesting to me that, although I’ve been underdressing for many years now (I have one pair of men’s underwear that I wear for my annual physical with my very conservative doctor) that it is still a treat every morning to pick out the day’s panties. When I wore men’s underwear, I didn’t give a thought to the selection of underwear, as they all looked the same. Not so with panties. Every day it is fun to decide on what panties to wear. Is it like that for you?
Online panty shopping is the safest way to go, and Xdress/Body Aware panties are designed with the male physique in mind, in terms of the width of the gusset, which gives a very comfortable fit. It is also fun to go to the “other side of the store” and explore the panty section. I am very fortunate to have a very supportive wife, and we go panty shopping together. I find that shopping in stores appeals to my feminine side, plus it is just a bit risky, making it all the more fun. Part of the fun for me is wearing a very sexy pair of panties under my women’s jeans and nobody has a clue how hot I look under it all. Speaking of jeans, if you try on a pair of women’s skinny jeans, you’ll never go back to men’s jeans. I know, that’s off-topic, but I just had to throw that in there.
Okay, so there are my thoughts on the topic. How about you? Are you a full-time panty wearer or limit it to weekends or special occasions? How old were you when you started underdressing? What are your favorite styles/fabrics? What is your preferred style of shopping – online or brick and mortar? Warm-up those keyboards guys/gurls. You know I love hearing your stories!
Fond regards,
Angie ♥️

Geoffrey, I agree, it is so comforting to slip on a fresh pair of nylon panties with lace trim around the waist & leg openings. Especially when they are in pink and have a bow in the center waist.
Roxanne- Highly recommend the Lace Crotchless Heart Panty! So much fun! I have worn them to be in bed but not to sleep (wink!).
I began wearing panties at age 10 after finding my mother’s silk panties in the clothes hamper and that gradually led to a progression to desiring to look and feel more feminine by wearing other kinds of lingerie. The second step in my secret world was to purchase an underwire 38 B bra with pretty lace and one that matched with my cute black nylon lace panties. That lingerie combination commenced a rapid unquenchable desire to purchase and collect more and more nylon lingerie. These purchases included short and long slips, full length nighties and matching robes, teddies, camisoles, vintage RHT Hanes stockings, nylon slippers, and open toed sandals. More to continue later.
Do any of you like to wear crotchless panties.? If so, do you wear them to bed? My wife and I buy matching crotchless panties and they add a something special to our intimacy. .
Having been a veteran nylon panty wearer, I was disappointed that nylon was not mentioned as a fabric Of choice at the beginning of the conversation. For me nylon lingerie is soooo soft and soooo feminine.
