What is the point of underwear?

Question

Ok, i know what the point is of a bra, but i dont understand what the point of underwear is if you are wearing pants or shorts. Please explain.?

Answer 1

It stops the inside of your pants/skirt from getting icky whenever you get horny.

Answer 2

I mostly wear shorts with no pants because of the heat. I also like to take a dip in the pool if I feel like it. If I'm dressed up I will wear underwear. but during the summer it is too restrictive.

Answer 3

When i didn't wear underwear, i had to wash my pants daily.  Underwear is easier. /

Answer 4

nasty crouch

Answer 5

You can get an infection from not wearing them,

and they're s**y (:

Answer 6

So you don't get skid marks, sweat marks or marks from any kind of leakage on your skirt or pants.

A secondary use would be to keep certain areas hidden in case you're wearing something that's easy to see through.

Answer 7

Not a clue. I don't own any underwear. If I feel the need, I borrow one of my wife's thongs.

Answer 8

If you ever get hit by a bus, you'll wish you stopped to put on underwear.  My Mum says it has to be clean underwear.  You must be wearing clean underwear in order to get hit by a bus!

Answer 9

f**t filter.

Answer 10

Because your juices are acidic and will eat away your best trousers?

Answer 11

so we don't chafe i guess....i guess it's a personal preference. and it's expected from society. if you don't want to wear it you don't have to. it may be uncomfortable though. personally i love sleeping without underwear but that's as far as i'll go
