Is it ever ok to wear a pair of undies twice?

Just say you were about to go out somewhere and you just got out of the shower and opened your drawer to find that shock horror! all of your underwear are in the washing basket. You have no clean undies to wear at all. What do you do? Do you put the same dirty pair back on or go commando? I think I'd put a dirty pair back on as it's unhygenic to go around in public with no undies. Imagine sitting on a seat that someone has just been sitting in who was wearing no undies-gross! So what would you do?

I've got too many panties not to have one clean. I must have 30 pair or more, but if i didn't have any clean, then I'd wear a pair of pantyhose. It would be better than wearing something dirty or wearing nothing at all.

This might be cheating your question a bit but if all my undies were dirty, then I would grab one of my girdles LMAO. Most of them are of the gentle support type so not that uncomfortable to wear...My days of going commando are long over with. I have gained to much modesty in my old age, I suppose. If nothing else a pair of pantyhose would even work!

Honestly, I haven't done this and haven't gone through this dilemma. But what I know is, washing a piece of undies and getting it dry wouldn't take me more than 30 minutes. With the help of the drier compartment of the washing machine, the undies will be dry within five minutes. If the machine isn't available or you're far from one, you could do the old technique. Take a towel and roll the wet undies inside the towel. Wring it several times. This way, the water will be absorbed by the towel and make the undies dry. But worse comes to worst, it would be alright to use the same undies twice. After all, it's your own dirty linen. And this will be more favorable than wearing nothing underneath your skirt or pants.

This has actually happend to me before! lol. I would just go commando for the day while I do laundry. I hate not having undies on but I would just wear my robe or something while I'm doing the laundry. If I didnt have time for that then I'd just go with out for the day. It wont kill me. But I guess it just depends on the person.

Hmmm. Being a girl, I would say, I would put a pantyliner in and wear them again. I wouldn't put the dirty side back on against my clean skin.

oh, that's kind of tough. But if ever that will happen to me, i will put a pantyliner before wearing the dirty one then i will go out for a convenient store and buy a new one to wear. But that won't happen to me for sure..because i wash my undies right after taking a bath to make sure i won't ran out of it. That's a good and challenging questions...that made me think a bit..lol. Have a great day!

Okay you asked. I most certainly wouldn't go out without undies on - shades of Britney Spears - Ewwwwwwww!. Obviously, there are solutions such as putting a nice little pad in place on the underwear.

Hi coffeeshot! That has happened to me twice before. I happened to be visiting in my grandmother's house and I need to take a bath because it is so hot. And of course, I am not bringing any undies and so I just used the same underwear; however I put on a pantyliner. Just my thoughts dear friend! Take care and have a nice day!

Ewww... what a topic, lmao! Thanks for giving me a laugh! No, I wouldn't put on dirty undies. I'd feel too dirty. I'd buy some if I didn't have any clean. Though that's never happened - I always make sure I have clean undies!

I have so much underwear that I can't imagine ever running out! However, in an emergency I think I'd prefer to put the dirty ones back on than go out without. I'm afraid I'd feel too self conscious, although I suppose it would also depend what else I was wearing. I guess I could always see if my hubbys would stay up, or my son's would stretch enough!

This has happened to me a few times when I lost track of my underwear and washing regularly. I put a dirty pair back on. I feel weird not wearing anything down there and I've tried it because I know a few of my friends do that and say it feels nice to not have anything on. It feels too breezy and open. I need my undies. So I agree with you. And since I'm a clean person it's not like my used underwear is infested and smelly and have stains. They look like I've never worn them at all.

LOL oh yes this has happened to me. I was forced to go commando and to be honest it wasn't that big a deal. I was wearing jeans at the time so it wasn't as if i was going to be completely *unclad*

Well, somewhat I feel a little bit sick to wear the same underwear back. If I haven't put it off, then will be fine. But once I put if off, I don't want to put it on again as it's dirty. I will put on clean trousers to go out immediately to buy a new underwear. I love China

I most definetly would not put on a pair of dirty underwear. Instead I would go without and wear pants instead of shorts and start a load of clothes in the washer before leaving so I'd be that much closer to having clean ones when I return. Sitting somewhere doesn't mean someone else sat on the chair naked or without pants on. Besides, if one did, you wouldn't get it on you because you're wearing something yourself, pants or shorts. I was raised to put on clean underwear after showering and to be sure I have plenty at all times.
