Not talking about something like a white thong under light pants as a fashion choice, but more about the way pantylines show through in ways that can get unflattering?
Or is this just something men care about?

    Even better, drop the boomery gender BS and just refer to them both as members of their species, for starters. 😅☝🏼

    eg. “A person shouldn’t cause discomfort to another, and if they opt to do so, they should first be aware of the consequences of that choice —for all parties.”

    and

    “A person can wear whatever they feel like, and no one has the ‘right’ to comment on it, regardless if it’s a critique or compliment.”

    IMHO, “We’re lucky when they consent to our awareness of it, and luckier still in that moment when there is no underwear.” can stay, though. 🤘🏼

      I wasn’t trying to aggravate anyone. If you don’t review yourself in what I said, it is your prerrogative. In the same way, I have the right to position myself within a mindset and posture where I am comfortable to interact with others, in the same way others have the right to do so towards myself.

      So, in regard to your well intended comment: what is the point of it? To force generalization onto everything, to the point individuals must abdicate their individuality in detriment of a generic, hollow, correcteness?

      Am I supposed to be ashamed to address another man, that so affirms himself as such, as a gentleman? And am I not allowed to designate a woman as such, if a woman defines herself like that? There is a lot of people out there exactly trying to define themselves as they feel and fighting and struggling to be accepted as such.

      So let’s just allow each other to express ourselves as we feel comfortable and understand as correct, providing nobody is actively trying to insult or devalue another.

      By all accounts, the conversations started “gendered”. I replied in form. Your take is not wrong. Mine is not wrong. We’re just approaching the same subject from different perspectives.

        Let’s sit a while with what you’ve just said. Deflection, to hyperbole, to shame, to plea. At least, thematically. Who knows what lies beneath your own surface, but that’s for no one but you to suss out. 🖖🏼
