About those Briefs!

Now, I am all for both men and women getting their equal share of clothing.  I don't even mind the confusion over whether or not it is a girly or a boy behind the avatar I've just bumped into - well not usually anyway.  I also quite like a lot of the let's say unisex clothing......BUT and I mean BUTT, having begged for knickers in more than one post and on my profile (and I don't normally do begging), plus I know there are quite a few girlies with me on this one......

Here's the news.....

Most girlies do not wear Y fronts; they have no need for Y fronts,  least not the ones I know* :O Actually I'm not even sure there are many men who wear those kind of Y fronts now, but that's an entirely other matter!

Sooooo Tiny Speck, Stoot, Bees, thank you for the 'Briefs', but please, please, please can the girlies have some non Y front briefs, knickers, panties whatever you choose to call them!

Personally, I would just like some non frou frou Tangas or something like that, but I know some of my friends would like some frilly bloomers too!  OK I know I also have friends who prefer the nekkid look, but I'm sure they too wouldn't object to having some pretty knicks to wear on special days!.

BTW, Love, love love the new pink Rook outfit; is there anyway, we could also have a new hair design based on that?  Would love a bit of longish wild multi hair! :)

ETA *actually that's not quite true, I did see Ebil looking quite fetching in her Y's yesterday, but then that's Ebil for you;)

ETAA Ok, I am now finding out that the Y's are quiet popular with some of my female friends. I guess I should have foreseen that, given we are all pretty mad here:)  Anyhoo I still want my knickers!

  • Agree Joby! I'd like to have some frilly day-of-the-week panties for those days when I just want to be a a little silly :)

  • LOL, Joby!  I agree 100%!  At least we have some pretty bustiers!

  • Being a staunch egalitarian and advocate for gender equality, I feel I must state two things:

    1) I love the fact that all clothes can be worn by any person.

    2) If there is a demand for clothing that is often seen as "girlier," then yeah, it should be available as an option. I don't believe, however, that there should be any indication that they are intended for use by girls or that they are girly, or that they are popular with individuals who are biologically female simply because they are frilly or lacy.

    I should say that I was initially offset by the existence of a "gurly" drink. But I also seriously admire changes and usage such as "PenPERSONship."

    All of that being said, I think it'd be fun to put panties on my character, lol.

  • Oh Ceru, don't get me wrong, I would have no problem with anyone wearing some 'girly' pants if that's their bag, nor a 'girly' wearing Y fronts, but, it is also a question of, if there are dresses, pants whatever whatever, if we get Y fronts, we should get non Y fronts, as I and some others would prefer to, well, wear some that didn't look like, erm, nope not going there!

  • Oh yes Joby!  Frilly knickers :D  And for sure I could care less who wants to wear them, whatever floats your boat I say!  Personally, I'm a boy shorts (sans the Y) kinda girl :D And please please please Devs, give us some new hair options.. I love all the outfit options, but I would seriously pay for some Extra Special Hair.. I need to let my inner dreads out of the wig box! :DDD And while we're on the subject... the hair, eyes, nose, ears, mouth options really, really, REALLY need to be upgraded.  As I said.. will pay to play.. or did you say you're already working on this as a perk for us so deserving Subs? :)

  • Hey Fi, that's a good name for them 'SansY Briefs'  You could copyright that maybe! ;)

    Oh and if Spanish they could be Sin Y Briefs...now that might do it too! ;)

  • How funny! I would wear the y-fronts but find them kind of binding on my gurly glitch figure. I'm a boxers-as-shorts kinda gal IRL. Just sew up the fly and tahdah!

    And I'm with Fi. Perhaps Big Wigs in the Hats category? That way you wouldn't have to worry about hair or hats with them!

  • I wonder if they have the left view/right view problem the geisha dresses did (I see dead people!)... as in when walking left the Y was one direction and when walking right the Y was in the other direction.

    The undies bring up another 'fun' layering thing, it actually bugged me earlier with the tights/leggings/anklets.... they are all 'trousers' and therefore don't layer with other other trousers. I wanna put pink anklets over black tights, under a pair of shorts... and/or wear my undies outside my trousers! I already pair a lot of shirts under dresses under a jacket, over a skirt and pants. Sometimes I'd like to be able to set which 'layer' appears on top, and other times multiple things in the same 'layer' look really cool together. Guess it's the Hats + Mask (or even Hats + Hair to some degree).

  • Princess Fi - I'm in bed already, but I just called Kristel, May and Brent and we will get on it straight away!

    (We did add new eyes and noses last week and ... We have some new hairdos *almost* ready ;)
    Posted 18 months ago by stoot barfield Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Trav, I think that would be a great idea...everyone should be able to wear their pants outside their trousers at least once!  Yeah and the leggings v anklets things too, I so wanted to try that Flashdance look :)

    For anyone who didn't see Ebil, here she is!:)

    @Stoot, hmm the word "knickers" is conspicuously absent from your post!  But I'll let you sleep on it;)

  • I noticed the hairstyles -- there weren't any new ones but they seemed organized differently.  SOOO excited for new hairs!
    Posted 18 months ago by Laurali Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Ooo thanks for that Joby! Looking at Ebil -  the undies *do* have the left view/right view issues. 
    The profile shows the Y dressed left, the wardrobe shows the Y dressed right.

    And just because it's presently very late and I'm left with dismal 'celebrity' TV at this hour... can we have one of the colors be Weinusgate Grey?

    (editing to add a video link)

  • LMAO Trav, well I had to look that up!

    And erm yes, they should face the same way shouldn't they!

  • I blame my time abroad for my ummmm, liberal view about what people do in the bedroom.
    IMO the real victim here is the taxpayer... he resigned and now they're burdened with the cost of a special election (when state funds are scarce). Not sure the lapse in judgement was/is worth the fuss, cost, or is relevant to his ability to make adequate political decisions. Many of the founding father's had mistresses and cheated on their wives.... but that's *my personal opinion*.

    Since so very many people here are wired in... I though I'd share an article I thought had a wonderful view about the role (and responsibility) social media played in things. For those who care, the linked article 'Screwing Your Brand' and the successive discussion is also a good read.

  • Travinara, did i miss something in this thread.. mebe i jus falled azleep?  Not that my view isn't apparently similar..
    Posted 18 months ago by Joni Mitchell Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Fi, it's Travs reference to Weinergate, which I didn't have a clue about so had to look it up.  Briefs were involved, possibly lack thereof, I believe!

    Now off to read Travs link....and then get back to my briefs LOL!

    ETA @ Trav, hmm yes, interesting.  I have always been amazed at just how open some people will be on Twitter, FB or even an open forum for that matter!

    Guess I don't feel comfortable airing my undies in public - Yeesss!...swift segue back to briefs in the thread LOL!;)
    Posted 18 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Probably not Princess Fi... I jumped from discussing/commenting on the Glitchy undergarments with Joby to referencing a bit of real world drama, then to cautioning about social media.

  • Oh well, long day at work.. had my own time abroad and it can/does change one's perspective.. Course mine was already "changed" anyway due to having come of age in world that no longer exists.. 1968.. good in some ways not so good in others I guess.  
    Posted 18 months ago by Joni Mitchell Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Hmm well, I went for the white ones so you couldn't see the Y, but somehow this just isn't doing it for me!  And yes, ankle warmers would have looked so much better but as you said trav, try to put them on and off come your panties LOL!

    OMG, so this is what I resort to because the game is closed!
    Posted 18 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Now.. about the frilly panties.. and hair dooz.. Stoot, thanks for considering :)
    Posted 18 months ago by Joni Mitchell Subscriber! | Permalink
  • With that, Joby.. Trav.. gotta say nighty nights! You rock!  And.. inside out, layering.. definitely :)  Sweet dreams everyone.. hitting the sack mysel like.. ttfn.

  • I figured the red undies were the closest I could get to a superman type look. I need a cape to go with them though.  Although the long black jacket I'm wearing does fly out cape style when I leap about the place. Super Glitch lol  
    More undies would be great though. Two pairs just isn't enough.

  • You looked fab Ebil, but I was kinda thinking you'd look even more fab if you'd been able to wear some leggings under your Y's;)

  • I would like it if the hats didn't make your hair dissapear. I really like the bee-antennas or rabbit ears, but they make me bald :(.

    I am most likely not the first one to mention this, but as this was a kind of active thread I thought I'd state it here.
    (Also, as I've just started playing, I haven't read older threads or older patchnotes/updates/blogposts etc.)
    Posted 18 months ago by Miriamele Subscriber! | Permalink
  • @Miriamele - they're working on it. Some hats/masks and hair styles *will* work together, we only started seeing that about a week ago... and they've even gone through the detail of 'squishing' fluffy hairstyles when wearing a hat. The antennae and horns work a little different, so they're taking a little longer.
    Posted 18 months ago by Travinara Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yeah i just noticed, having fun in the wardrobe at the moment :)
    Posted 18 months ago by Miriamele Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I'm still looking for high heels, oh and the guys are more than welcome to try them on and wobble with the rest of us.  :)

    Maybe some really great looking cowboy boots.
    Posted 18 months ago by xoxJulie Subscriber! | Permalink
  • High heels would go great with my briefs, chest hair and abs lol
    Cowboy boots would be awesome...with spurs too, and a nicer cowboy hat.

  • There are a couple of really cute wedge-type shoes, like the Coral Heeled Mary Janes and the Open Toe Pumps... but much higher than that and I'm not sure how the artwork would look. "High Heels" change the physical architecture of how the skeleton stands. It throws the whole center of gravity off, and I imagine the change in walk pattern would be a nightmare to animate.

    We're getting off topic again.... the Clothing/Gear thread has loads and loads of thoughts and ideas not specific to the new Undies.

    Extra thoughts on the undies topic... boxer shorts and jammie pants. 
    I *do* know women who wear those. Yes I'd use them, I'm currently wearing one of my post-test sleep outfits.
    Posted 18 months ago by Travinara Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Well, if we were going to get layering, how about some all in ones too!
    Posted 18 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • The kind that zip up and have feet??? Fun!
    Posted 18 months ago by Travinara Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Erm no Trav not quite what I was thinking, I mean like bathing suits and even though the possibilities are endless, I'd settle for some knickers right now;)
    Posted 18 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I wear Y-fronts, really comfy.

    Boxers and footie PJs would be nice to have too.

  • I vote for a y-front themed party at the close of the next test! Everyone to wear y-front only (hats and shoes optional!!) LOL

  • Perhaps the TS artists are off working madly away as we speak to create those frillies so that we can have a PantiPants Party!  Yeah Yeah Yeah!  :DDD
    Posted 18 months ago by Joni Mitchell Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Got mine and ready to party Morticia! Obviously, I'll need to dress down a bit.
    Posted 18 months ago by JW Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Hey, my avatar is looking quite HAWT in those y-fronts, don'tcha think? LOL But yes, I think there should definitely be way more choices on the whole underwear front (bwaahahahaha). [Okay, really, really stupid question to Jobynana: Isn't Ebil a guy?? (name is Edward...erm, what now?) Not that, you know, I necessarily want to assume things...I just tend to get people in my head as one gender or the other and then want to not be thinking of them the wrong direction, you see....]

    And I hope we do have a goofy Y-front end party, as I would already be all set :D
    Posted 18 months ago by RM Subscriber! | Permalink
  • xD Rm, the Ebil gender thing probably comes from FS where I refused to tell people what gender I was. 
    I think on my profile, or somewhere, I put something along the lines of "if you need to know my gender to refer to me as he, she or it, don't worry, I'll answer to either." 

    A few people would assume I was male, most would assume I was female, and I just found it interesting how people categorize other people over the internet. 
    Most of us do it I guess, if not all of us, we build up a mental picture of what online friends and acquaintances look like, based on text alone, when there's no photo to view.   I know I do often, and then I'll see a photo of someone or hear them describing something about their features and think "Wow! That's not what they looked like to me!". 

    I've just always liked the idea of a virtual life being genderless, ageless and colourless.
    In reality, age, colour and gender all get a person judged and put in a little box. 
    Virtual reality just seemed a great place to loose that instant judgement.   

     
    Posted 18 months ago by Ebil Subscriber! | Permalink
  • LOL RM, oh yes you do look quite hawt in your black Y's, but sadly, when I tried them on, I felt kinda 'exposed' lol!  Gotta love a gusset!;)

    As for "Teh Ebil One", can't see anyone putting you in a box really; not even one that says "SIH", although I'm sure you've been to Hell a few times >:-]

    Oh and Morticia: "Pants Party"?  I'm sure it wouldn't be!;)

    "Up with Knickers! ;)
    Posted 18 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Wow Rascalmom - great look!!!
    Wonderful idea for a Pants Party Morticia! - hope to be there for that, off to get Y fronts pronto. ;-)

  • Clothes are fun and there is a whole world of variety Glitchees will go for and Tiny Speck I'm sure will provide.

    Eyes are eyes are really bland, no color, dull, grey.  I really would like to see a world with everyone creating the color of eyes they would like.  

    Hair color the same thing were you could have a slide bar and create the color you would like the world to see you in.

    Ditto with the mouths, those really need some better art work not a really decent happy smile, at least not to me.  More like grimaces.  Some really need good dentist to go to heh heh heh
    Posted 18 months ago by xoxJulie Subscriber! | Permalink
  • xoxJulie, I have thought for a while that we need a better smiley mouth too. I want the mouth I have but with a little bit of a teeth smile in there...

    Ebil, lol, sorry, wasn't trying to put ya in a box, I promise! But you're right, we do get mental pictures. I love how so many people in Glitch play with the gender thing and cross dress all the time:) Especially for the guys, I think they can experiment more here than in real life because I think in RL men have more clothes constraints (women can wear business suits and no one even notices, but let a guy wear a dress to a meeting and see what would happen). You go right on being genderless, my friend.

    Speaking of gender and to return to the thread topic...yeah, I'm wearing the men's undies this week...but I do want to see some chick panties, too!
    Posted 18 months ago by RM Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Thanks Rm :)  I don't mind being put a box really.  I just find it interesting how different virtual life can be from real life.  Virtual life just gives us a chance to mix it up a bit and confuse ourselves lol

    I tried on those tighty whiteys in the wardrobe and they looked like they needed a good wash, but then took off chest hair and they looked clean again, the chest hair kind of overlaps them. Now I have to buy those ones too :D
