YAY or NAY: going commando?
2008 February 25
OH i CAN’T WAIT to see comments on this one!
and if you don’t know what this is, then you probably don’t go commando.
me = never. that’s my story and i’m sticking to it!
so, this is the last (and probably most scandalous) of my “yay or nay” ideas – got any others you want me to throw out there??
for the record: seriously. i’m not a commando chick… no thanks! but i can’t say that its NEVER been a situation in my life… no, i won’t elaborate. just trying to give an honest confession here. and, that’s all i’m gonna say about that.
hmm .. Only on Sundays. (jk)
Not that I can recall, unless you count swimming
no way man.
nay!
Steph: i think, for the sake of scandal, we should DEFINITELY count swimming!!! HA! i’m inspired… maybe we’ll do a yay or nay on skinny-dipping and see just where that goes.
Nay — in public.
hutch: GOOD to know!!!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!
Um, it looks like I’m in the minority here.
So I won’t say any more about this.
becky: gasp! and you are admitting it on the http://www…. you are my new hero.
New hero #2 here. Yay for sure…it is very freeing!
this is turning out to be a VERY informative day!!
nay
only on dates with my hubby…if he’s lucky and i’m drunk ha! …just so y’all know…i don’t get drunk, so you can see my comando days are VERY limited!
LOL, your email to me made it sound like commando is only for ugly-trashy-non-Christian women! LOL
I was totally grossed out by the thought of it until I finally did it. Ok, not at certain times of the month and usually not after er…relations…but yeah the benefits are…
#1. It drives my husband wild. (I am all about keeping the main man coming back for more…we are doing that 30 day challenge…it is FUN!)
#2. There is nary a wedge to deal with!
#3. No panty lines! (I can not wear thongs…HATE THEM!)
Ok, now that is TMI for the men who read your blog…please know that I am not a very interesting person…my blog is nothing like Mandy’s…no men ever read it, except for my Hubs.
commando- i don’t remember. i don’t THINK so.
skinny dipping- YAY. what do my friends and i do at night in bwk/ssi? grab a bottle of wine, head to the beach, sit under the stars and talk, and SKINNY DIP!
Teri: girl! you have me rolling…. and convinced there is some benefit here. wow…. thank you for responding! had NO idea you’d answer via commenting, but i’m sure our readers will benefit as well…
btw, your blog rocks!
oh wow…well i have to admit that i did it once but never again! i was uncomfortable the entire time. however, let me tell you the situation. it was on my honeymoon. my hubby bought me this beautiful floor-length yellow silk dress (think “how to lose a guy in 10 days” without the low back). key word=silk…shows everything. so i kinda had to. and there ya go.
Jenn: when you said uncomfortable, i was thinking jeans or something! i know that dress…. whew – its stunning. and yes, you kinda had to! nice.
I must admit that I do sometimes go comando especially when its time for bed when I have on comfy pjs. I know could be too much info.
Char: NOT surprised!
… so, when we gonna have that phone date? i <3 U!
Three letters: wow.
For the record: no way jose.
Oh Good Lord!!!
After you recent post on “peeping tom’s”…absolutely not!
inWorship: would you believe me if i told you that i had the SAME thought connecting the two posts. HEHE!!!!…. so, um, when is Tam gonna get on here and tell the truth?!?
negative.
Whew.
this is fast becoming one of the most INTERESTING developments in my personal blog history. OH the candor!!!
alright…. ladies. any of you inspired by our YAY commenters??? any of you NAY-sayers re-thinking your stance?!?
heck no
yay, sort of.
in high school = often
in college = some
now = not so much
ps – dan’s lying.
Josh: for the record, i sent dan an email saying that i didn’t believe him! glad you confirmed my suspicions!!!!
I go Commando so much I don’t even call it that. Instead I have a phrase for when I actually wear underwear. That phrase: “Taming the beast.”
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!
Damon!!!!!! i don’t think these people would believe me if i claimed that you and i were once prayer partners and leaders at our college campus ministry.
nope… they wouldn’t believe me at all!
wow.
wow.
My name is Tam and I go commando!
Teri is SOOO right! Only I’ve been gutted so I don’t have that female issue any longer
Oh, and I’ve been married almost 17 years so I don’t have that “relations” issue much either.
JUST KIDDING ON THAT LAST ONE!!!!!
Thought I’d drop a jaw or two!!!!
I LOVE my man!!!
Me: occasionally.
And my husband used to wear a kilt quite often…and there’s only one acceptable way to wear a kilt!
Sometimes yes. Back in the day, all the time. Not so much now, but I am still known too. Sarah, can not believe I would do such a thing.
tam, sarah, justin… y’all are giving me NIGHTMARES tonite!!!!
sarah: i don’t think i’ll ever be able to look at you the same!!!!
I made a deal with three friends that if I got married we’d all go commando that day. Well…I got married and we all had our little secret. It kept me from losing it at the ceremony b/c I was laughing so hard about our commando pact.
That’s it though. I love underwear, sorry.
MEGAN! its not a little secret anymore! GIRL!
Dang Mandy, is your timing that good or are you comment stalking your own blog?
(Megan leaves a comment at 10:15 and you leave your reply at 10:17)
what in the Sam Hill is going on over here??
Apparently I need to come check on you a little more often. I am missing out!
Hahaha! Carrie! I was actually gonna mention this on your post tonight after reading that you don’t hang out your underwear on the line cuz it’s no one elses bidness
Well, if you all didn’t wear any – there’d be no bidness to have 
come on over to the dark side won’t ya?
OH Y’all are TOO Much!!!!
hutch: i was actually closing things down when Megan hopped in there and i HAD to respond. these seminary wives (note, i haven’t heard from YOUR wife yet) are blowing my expectations!!!
Gotcha…
And um… comment #3. You responded to her in comment #6.
this was awesome to read back over… i am feeling slightly inspired…
hutch: dang! you are right!!! LOL. we’d gotten so far into it that i totally forgot!
he he!!!
holy smokes! all these seminarians
Danielle: they don’t call this seminary “the fertile crescent” for nothing. everybody’s ALWAYS having babies…
So are you calling underwear the new birth control? Because let me tell you, it doesn’t work
And I am all for going commando if you can pull it off without letting your face give it away. I am just not very good at that portion of the practice.
steph!
sorry i forgot about your bathing suit comment.
as for the “new birth-control” not working, you say this two kids later. how long did it take you to figure THAT out?!
yes, my face would be a dead giveaway… i’d avoid all contact all day long with all people i encounter. all day. or else i’d giggle hysterically and then rudely NOT explain what was funny when they asked!
