So please keep that in mind as you read my question :stone

So I have read numerous posts on here regarding underwear, whether it be pet peeves, or a hilarious thread I read today about wearing a bra. LOL

When it comes to underwear, I get why people say men need to wear some, when wearing scrubs, I also get the whole White Scrubs and no underwear or polka dots etc.

What I can't figure out is where the problem lies when it comes to colored scrubs and no panties.

Keep in mind, I am not yet in an environment where I see a lot of people in scrubs and have only worn them a few times myself.

What am I missing??

other than the potential of the crack of your bum showing when bending over, i would think it would be a personal preference.

So when I see all the posts venting about their coworkers not wearing any it is probably in reference to the back side?? That I can understand. I just wasn't sure if their was something else that is noticeable in scrub pants and no panties than the obvious white scrubs.

Thanks for answering, I would hate to find out something the hard or humiliating way in a case like this.

That wouldn't be a problem for me ;) :p Although I just got a bad mental image HA!

I guess that was my question, how would one know?? Honestly, I have medical reasons why I try to refrain from wearing them and I don't wear pants that show my crack, I do have some "boy shorts" type panties that I wear when I need to wear them that don't give me any problems, so if their was a good reason people were talking about I would just do that. I just wanted to check in case I was missing something and here y'all don't know me to be "talking about" my preference at school or work LOL.

Although reading about scrubs ripping and stuff like that, I think I might just stick to the boy shorts, their was a time I went to the chiropractor for my massage and was mortified when I realized I didn't plan accordingly :stone
