I hate that word! If my husband says it I cringe a little. I grew up with my mom calling underwear "fancy pants" (maybe to make them seem more exciting, so I'd be less likely to pee in them?). Otherwise, undies it is.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05376030067139811030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1910474396862815244.post-58726070989252600362011-05-10T10:33:11.014-07:002011-05-10T10:33:11.014-07:00Urgh 'panties' always makes me think of se...Urgh 'panties' always makes me think of seedy lusting greasy men for some reason and therefore should never ever be used in polite society!! <br /><br />In fact that word should be reserved for dodgy pornos featuring 70's music and a distinct lack of personal topiary!

We use 'undies' in our house - I guess being Australian, we shorten everything. <br /><br />I thought sewing underwear was one of the daggiest things that you could do, however, my daughter is small and so I bought the same pattern and made quite a few pairs. I have since bought pairs, but even my husband agrees that the made ones are so much better and there are less wedgies for my daughter.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00916191325266749752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1910474396862815244.post-44683811843966804282011-04-09T21:50:46.314-07:002011-04-09T21:50:46.314-07:00I have the same wierd feeling about the word, and ...I have the same wierd feeling about the word, and never taught it to any of my daughters. I think I may associate it with some kind of sick-o interest in girls' underwear.

Undies it is around here. We all wear underwear. Boys and girls. Anyway, I am so looking forward to potty training so I can make underwear.

My mom said THAT word to my daughter last week (who looked at her completely clueless) and it made me shutter. <br /><br />The hubs has an old roommate who is a bit on the strange side. He was discussing their 1-year-old's recent photo shoot and said that she was wearing nothing but "silky panties." His wife quickly corrected, saying "diaper cover", but the damage was done. I can never again think about this guy without remember the "silky panties" and shuttering violently.
