panties

BLAHAHAHAAAAA!!! :)

*whispers to you*

Manties...

The answer, hernesheir, is me. I occasionally whisper in a sultry, low voice to my beloved, the word 'manties.'

Mostly because it makes him break out in hives, and that makes ME laugh hysterically.

Of course, you asked "what man..." and I'm not a man, so maybe that answers your question. :)

"After hooling around the yard after a ball, the hairy dog had a bad case of panties."

I can't get past the verb "pant" in panties. I vote to keep and cherish this word. And ladies, I suggest you whisper it unexpectedly in a slow and sultry voice to your special someone and see what reaction you get! Conversely, what man in his right mind would whisper "manties" to anyone? I'd choke with laughter if I witnessed that.

I've always thought "panties" was a very cute alternative to "underwear" (along the same lines as "footsies" or "toesies"). One of my youth group girls introduced me to "chonies" recently. Gah! Sounds like an organ.

So what do people think about the phrase moist panties?

Underpants, yes, very funny, multipurpose word; but panties...YUCK, ugliest word in the English language

I love the word panties. It's cute, delicate, and sort of naughty, just like the word for a woman's underwear should be.

"covers the subject" - ha!

Now look what you've done, c_b. You've made our Wordie friends break out in hives.

I don't know what the problem is with panties, really. But I think pantyhose is one of the ugliest words ever created. In fact... it's an Abomination. The word *and* the object.

What do all these people have against this word? The underpants gnomes episode is one of my all-time favorites on South Park.

Underpants is an absolute hoot. That word was made to be laughed at. Skivvies is a great word, too, but it applies to many different types of undergarment. I would think you'd rather call them manties, if only for the sake of precision.

But... see, rt? This is exactly what I was talking about. *eville grin*

Skivvies is good.

America should totally adopt the word pants to mean underwear. Apart from that, I'm partial to skivvies.

I am definitely allergic to the word manties. Guys just plain wear underpants - that's all we need. No need to glamorize them. Boxers are ok too.

Don't get your manties in a twist.

...and the Prince got eaten by his panties!...

In fact, I think the excellence of manties is in an inverse relationship to the horribleness of panties.

I hate panties, it's unnecessarily cutesy masquerading as "sexy". Manties, however, is hysterical and needs to be in wider usage.

I've been trying to avoid it myself, but it somehow sucked me in. ;-)

Notice no one else is commenting on this page? Hmm...

You're a hard one, chained_bear. ;->

Underpants is indeed far more hilarious than... well, almost any other word. However, uttering the word manties makes any male in the vicinity have an allergic reaction that is most pleasing to behold.

I think underpants is far more hilarious.

I love panties. I also love manties, for the male equivalent.

Look at the lists on the right, at how many people hate this word. I think it's refreshingly short, descriptive & covers the subject very nicely.
