Perhaps we can talk about underwear again here?

I agree, though that isn't bad... Amazon for white cotton ladies had some that were more than that for ONE!!!
I've decided to start doing a best guess experiment... I've been wearing Fruit of the Loom mens briefs for most of my life, and they make a similar looking women's brief that is only about $13 for a 6-pack, and comparing the size charts I've ordered a pack from Amazon that looks like a possible match... If they don't fit I may see if they will exchange them, but worst case, it isn't a big deal...

Re: Underwear
Update... I actually had thought I messed up when ordering but it turned out OK...
I'd been wearing these - https://www.fruit.com/fruit-of-the-loom ... 9P760.html in size L, which their size guide says is for a 36-38" waist...
I thought I'd try these - https://www.fruit.com/fruit-of-the-loom ... BRIW2.html as they looked like pretty much the same style
Unlike many of the other brands that give both hip and waist measures in their size charts, the FotL site only gives hip measures and pant-sizes in theirs, so I thought I'd try the same hip size or possibly one larger, which would be either a 6 / M (38-39"), or a 7 / L (40-41"... However I did a thinko when placing the order and left the size selection at size 8 / XL (42-43") by mistake...

I decided to wait until they came in and give them a try as I figured that would give me a better idea about size regardless of how they fit... Turns out they fit pretty well, and I've been wearing them for almost a week (not the same pair!
) and have been pretty happy with the way they fit and give a bit more support to my pad... So it turns out that I got the RIGHT size by mistake - I'm happy!

Re: Underwear
Always had trouble finding underwear that fit, having one ball & a small penis. Hate feeling like I'm swimming in my tighty whities when they're too loose up front for me to fill out. Buddy of mine recommended bikini briefs by Pair of Thieves & I'm loving them! No more baggy bulges. Just a soft, snug cradle for my pee pee. Get comments about wearing "man panties" but that's okay with me. Genuinely feels like what we belong in as emasculated men.

Re: Underwear
Those look nice, though I try to stick w/ plain white as I've heard of people having problems w/ dyes in the past, and I have to be extra careful because of all the time I spend sitting...
I do have a gripe w/ the Fruit panties I just started wearing though - after ONE wash one of the pairs has major failures - the waist band has pulled off in a couple of places, one of the side seams has started to split, and I'm finding several holes in the fabric....
I have pairs of the men's briefs that I have worn for YEARS that are in better shape... These are made from thinner (advertised as "softer") material, but I expect them to last longer than one wash...
Are there any reasonably priced brands of women's briefs that are made from the same materials and construction standards as the guy's?
