POLL: underwear or no?

What is the etiquette for under-wearing beneath jogging tights, yoga pants, or leggings?  I have an old-fashioned underwear philosophy (full-bottomed drawers for me, please), and am pretty sure that I'm doing this look ALL wrong.
[Poll]

Re: POLL: underwear or no?

  • a thong in yoga sounds like torture!! but I try to wear underwear with no VPL for yoga/workout pants.

    ever since having DD I don't like thongs but do wear them sometimes. I don't know what make the difference from having a kid and changing underwear style, I still wear cute stuff  so it's not a switch to granny panties or anything.

  • If I am working out, I always wear full coverage.

    I don't wear workout clothes unless I am working out.  For regular leggings, I wear something long enough to cover my butt, so it doesn't matter...sometimes I wear a thong, sometimes I don't.

  • I have never worn thongs ever.  It just doesn't seem comfortable.  I also only like to wear cotton, and so that limits style too.  heehee

    I'm right there with ya. I like to wear low rise bikini briefs or boy shorts. And they make plenty of those cuts without VPLs.

    But I also don't care if people know I'm wearing underwear. I think it is better than going commando.

  • I pretty much don't care if I have VPL.  So people know I'm wearing undies.  Big deal!
  • I voted for full bottom but I mostly wear boyshorts. Marshall's and TJ Maxx have these boyshorts that are stretchy and pretty much have no vpl. They are like $2 each. I love them. Try to get as many pairs as I can when I stop by those stores.
  • SS.

    Working out = commando for tights/capris, shorts have built in undies.

    Everyday wear = thongs

    Sleeping = granny panties or boy shorts

    And that's more than anyone ever wanted to know about my skivvies.

    my mom had never worn a thong and decided to try it. She called me and my sister complaning about how awful it was and she later realized she had it on sideways (the waistband in the middle). um yeah, that's going to make it pretty miserable.

    Ha!  I did that one day, although I didn't really notice until I was in bathroom and I looked down (while on the potty) and was like - oops!  I had to rearrange in the stall.
