Commando is a NO GO!

At what point in a women's life do we go from the little string of material that we call underwear to briefs, otherwise know as granny panties? Tonight at "Book" club, yes we do talk about the book for a whole whopping 10 minutes, I learned that women who are old enough to be my mom are still going around commando. Growing up my mom always said to have clean and appropriate underwear on just in case of an emergency so you wont be embarrassed. I'm 28 and have yet to be in this situation, well maybe once I had a small head injury and went to the hospital but I wasn't old enough to know the different styles of undies, but I couldn't imagine ever going commando. When I reached high school I switched to thongs, like all teenage girls do, especially if you play volleyball and are required to wear spandex shorts. Got to college and realized spandex wasn't required and moved on to bikini style panties. Now there are 5 different styles of underwear for women: thongs, bikini, boy shorts, hipsters, and briefs. As I see it you start out in briefs, move on to thongs in your teenage years, bikini and/or boy shorts in your early adult years, hipsters in your 40's, and briefs from there. The older you get the more coverage your butt gets! However, according to these ladies, yes there was not only one but two who prefer to go commando, decided somewhere along the way underwear becomes optional. Maybe its part of a mid-life crisis for women... men get motorcycles, new hair cut, grow facial hair and women get hysterectomies, face lifts, and lose the panties!
