Just did some washing, and went to hang out some clothes on the rack - only to find that I had five pairs of boxers drying already. That got me thinking about how many pairs of boxers I own - so I counted. 19 spare, plus the pair I'm in for a grand total of 20...that's almost three weeks of freshness...

How about you guys?

I have about 40ish pairs of undies. I realise that sounds retarded but I'm a sucker for pretty knickers. I asked my mum to send some more in the mail about 3months ago and they still havn't arrived so thank god I have a bit of a back up supply.

Panties!


I have about 15. I noticed recently that some are too small now. I like to imagine it's because my washer is shrinking them.

I have approximately 10 pairs. 7 or 8 of which are in the rotation, 2 or 3 which I'll call up from the farm league if we're in trouble.

And a few dozen MIA under your Moms' beds.

Wow...who needs over 20 pairs? That's just crazy...and you brought them all to Korea with you or did you stock up here?

I have about 10 pairs of underwear. I could get by with less though because I only have 3 pairs of pants I wear to work and 5 pairs of socks, so I generally have to do laundry every 5 or 6 days.

I desperately need some new ones but haven't bothered to get any since I've been here. I like to imagine its because Korea doesn't have big enough panties to hold me.

Maybe 40 for me too... being a girl though, there are different underwear for different outfits/occasions.

10 boxers that I keep in a constant rotation so that each get a fair share of usage. Razz

Any of you *ahem* MEN, still wear white cotton briefs? C'mon fess up!

Simple, dark-colored boxers with the button for the...opening that I hardly ever use (too much'a fuss for when I really gotta go).

As for ladies, I like a lady with a wiiiiiiiide variety! But the Bridgett Jones' look has got.to.go.

One. (1).

Its done me very well for 20 years.I see no sense in extravagance. It practically washes itself. Occasionally i peel it off for an airing, usually by swinging them round in the middle of a nightclub. Women go wild. Maybe I'll donate them to charity one day when the last thread of elastic snaps. Some poor person will need them.

I feel the same way about socks. And, no, I'm not cheeky -- I really do hate socks. Thick cotton ones. They can go to hell for all I care.

Oh!!! I'm a sock-fanatic!! I have maybe 50 pairs of socks!! I love the rainbow ones...and the ones with bad English (I've got some with "tennis" spelled wrong!!).

My clothes might be boring, but my socks are GREAT!!!
