Ladies is pantyhose really so bad?

Well heres the deal I have been told that pantyhose is worse than anything men have to wear. I know most women don’t have to wear it for work anymore, but some still are. There was a story about it on ABC.

So I want to try it myself, so I would like to know a little about it.

How often do you have to shave your legs? How many pairs would a girl need for work? What kind of care do they require? Anything else that needs to be done because of wearing them? Do you wear underwear with them? Are stockings better or worse?

Lastly how long should I wear them to get a real feel for the comfort/discomfort of the item of clothes? As in: Day/Week/Month, how many hours a day is normal, ETC…

Personally I think they kind of look like a really light weight sock, so I think they would be comfortable, as socks are comfy. But I guess I will find out.

Thank you for helping me with this experiment of mine.

Answer #1

Women are dramatic. If you buy a quality pair of hose, they feel great.

How often do you have to shave your legs? Every day, or every other if you’re lucky.

How many pairs would a girl need for work? I’d say three.

What kind of care do they require? Gentle washing–by hand or in the washer in cold water on gentle cycle.

Anything else that needs to be done because of wearing them? Nope.

Do you wear underwear with them? Some do, some don’t. I do.

Are stockings better or worse? I prefer stockings and a garter belt.

PS–you don’t need to use this as an excuse to wear pantyhose. If you want to wear them, just wear them.

Answer #2

How often do you have to shave your legs?

Every other day.

How many pairs would a girl need for work? umm…you only wear one pair per day…lol

What kind of care do they require? you have to be very carefull with them. they rip and tear easily.

Anything else that needs to be done because of wearing them? make sure you get a comfortable pair..not too tight, and not too loose…I have been on both ends of that string and it SUCKS! oh..and make sure you keep them straight and pulled up so they don’t look shabby. xD

Do you wear underwear with them? Some do, some don’t. It depends on the woman and her woman problems. lol xD

Are stockings better or worse? Stockings are better for longer dresses and skirts, but for shorter ones, I stick with stockings/knee highs/ theigh highs. lol
