So why are panty lines "disgusting" or gross? Nobody seems to think much when they see bra lines through the back of a blouse- you see them everywhere. I guess if you can see bumpy edges of EITHER thongs or panties sticking up underneath a skirt or pants then maybe your pants or skirt are form fitting or thin. I'm not talking SEE THROUGH pants or skirt here- just visible bump lines. My point was that one can often see thong bump-lines on women below the waist in the back when they're wearing polyesther pants and silky skirts- perhaps they don't realize that they are not avoiding panty lines altogether.
Me, I don't CARE if a hint of panty line shows through my pants- so what? It's not exaggerated or gross. I don't care if a bit of bra strap peeks out occasionally from my neckline either. Is there a reason I should be trying to look as though I don't wear underwear?


And nobody wants to see a 53 year old woman without underwear...
Ahem... my husband sure does!
