Underwear is Humorous

Madonna did not invent pointy.


Does anybody wear a slip anymore? I know I haven't since 1979. I think we should bring it back. They were so pretty.


Remember the days-of-the-week underwear? An interesting way to organize your "draws".


Lacy and racy for the 60's




There has been quite a revolution in underwear since the 60's. Of course, there is less material involved in today's undies. The colors and prints are different. Changing from powder blue and rosebuds to navy blue and leopard print. Bras have changed from pointy to rounded. Girdles are now Spankx and slips are a thing of the past. Basic men's underwear hasn't changed much. Snaps on boxer shorts are gone. In my town there was a story of a local man who was saved by the snaps on his boxer shorts. One Saturday night the man got into a drunken brawl that ended in a gunshot wound to the lower abdomen. He was rushed to the hospital bleeding and "close to death".  The victim's employer was called and told that the man probably would not make it. The next morning the boss got a call from the wounded man to come to the hospital and pick him up. When the boss got there the man informed him that it was only a scratch. The bullet was stopped by the snap on this boxers. Maybe we should bring back the snaps.
