Like the author of the article, I hate the word 'panties'. I always thought it was an americanism. Perhaps not.

Mine are just plain undies.

Yours?

Lol we did indeed call them grundies because at the time we were living on the Gold Coast back in the 80s and the kids used to love going to Grundy's Arcade in Surfers. The tem grundies orginated back then, for us.

We started calling them grundies for the ugly ones we hate, granny undies=grundies or grungy undies=grundies

Mostly undies, occasionally knickers

Mostly undies. Sometimes it's knickers if it is a discussion between DD and I.

My 2yo nephew calls them jocks. I call them undies and he corrects me, they're his jocks.

I've always called them knickers - I think it might be a pommy thing.

I just remembered, my nana used to call them scanties!

but hers were bloomers, long legs with high waists
