In England we have ‘pants’.
These are our undergarments. Affectionately called knickers or grots these slips of material with elastic cover our private parts, and clean ones must be worn daily for good health.
Pants must not be confused with the American term for trousers.
This is about comfy pants for females. I suspect men need comfy undergarments too but I’m not in a position to talk on their behalf so I’ll just deal with fanny coverings…and again, fanny in the united kingdom means vagina and only the vagina. (Unless you have an Aunt called Fanny the root of many a joke here in England.)
Without getting into too much detail females have more down in the lower abdomen than males.
Men have guts and bladders. Women have guts, bladder, womb, fallopian tubes, ovaries and cervix all crammed in the same size space.
As with all things in life, once it’s out of the box, it harder to get it back in.
Meaning…
After childbirth the womb has expanded…the area is larger. Fitting back into the garments she wore before children isn’t always an option. In fact, let’s be honest, it’s rarely an option.
As I get older I find comfortable pants are missing from my drawers completely. It is a constant grind that every pair of pants I own have been cut like those shown in the photo accompanying.
Excuse me, I own ‘special’ pairs for my lover. You know, lovely sexy articles to stimulate our carnal juices but I’m not talking about these that are barely on for half an hour.
It’s my ‘day to day’ pants. My ‘bread and butter’ pants. These are the pants that I hope I don’t get knocked over and taken into hospital with. What would the nurses and doctors say?
Anyhow, I’m going to leave this here today in the hope that some undergarment manufacturer hears my moan and does something about it. Please stop putting such a tiny waist into big knickers. If you are making big knickers…who are you making them for?
We have a saying in England,
“Put your big pants on and deal with it.”
Bet you never imagine our big pants would actually look like this.
Have a nice day.

They look comfy! I rely on oversized cotton boxers for comfort.
A tip I got years ago from a woman in a lingerie shop was to buy pants a size bigger than your trousers. This way they never show under your clothes. They are also more comfortable.
I do. Perhaps my knickers are too cheap! These are size 16 when I am actually a size 8. Perhaps it’s the elastic which is my issue? Thank you for the tip all the same and for commenting. Your pages are very interesting.
