Why the Word 'Panties' Is So Awful (And What to Do About It)
The term has hung around for generations, but now the backlash has arrived. Can this simultaneously too-sexualized and too-babyish nickname be retired? (http://www.theatlantic.com/sexes/archive/2013/02/why-the-word-panties-is-so-awful-and-what-to-do-about-it/273224/)
Backlash? Really? I have no doubt your intent is to create one, thus propelling yourself to the front lines of the war against wimmins, but I really think you're barking up the ol' inanity tree here, dyke.

She just wants 'going commando' to be recognized as a protected victim group, with all the financial goodies involved.

Evil stalks the world and this one thinks the word panties is its representative. I'd like to say "over the shoulder boulder holder" to her face and check her reaction.

Reminds me of the joke from childhood: What's German for 'bra'? Stoppenziefloppen.

The thing is, as a man who very much appreciates women and feminine beauty, I have never given a single solitary thought to the word "panties" being either infantile of sexualized. Panties are panties whether they're on a beautiful sexy woman, a two-ton-tessie, or a 4 year old. It is just what women's underwear is called. I am willing to bet that somewhere upwards of 80-90% of men would say the exact same thing.
Now to be honest regarding the aforementioned two-ton-tessie, I might be inclined to jokingly refer to her panties as "bloomers" or some other disparaging term indicating her size. But they're still panties.

An arguement could be made for almost any word, and all it takes is a poisoned mind. Feminism gets a bad rap, or at least proper feminism does. The rest of it can Rot in Sot for all I care. A comic on a more humoreous note,

The author says we infintilize panties, because -ies is a suffix for kids. Worm-ies or kitties or doggies.
Should we also ban parties or subsidiaries ::whatgives::

What, to your way of thinking, is proper feminism?
-
The inclusion of women in studies and the providence of merit-based oppertunities to females.
Back in the 50s and earlier psychological and economical studies actually discluded women! Imagine not factoring women into a marketing study! According to liberal sociology, there were* three 'waves' of feminism.

Okay, link please. I don't think there was ever a period in modern history where women didn't make most of the purchasing decisions for a household, or a time when marketers didn't understand that.
-
I'm afraid I've put my foot in my mouth. I was wrong. Looking through my notes it was 'societal marketing', the baby boom and feminisms second wave. the studies were not market-based, rather it was that all women tended to be lumped into a few demographics. I should watch what I say.
-

Recognizing and celebrating the inherent differences between males and females. Everything else is Radical Militant Feminism which isn't so much about sex as it is about power and control - just based on gender assignment.

::thinking:: ugly women are offended.
Hot women call them panties ::whoohoo:: ..... or Pantiespantiespantiespantiespantiespantiespantiespantiespanties.......
::exitstageleft::
just sayin ::popcorn::

Hemm is exactly right. It's ugly women who are offended by the term. They feel excluded from any alleged eroticism surrounding the term, and this is how they deal with it.

If not "panties" what are you supposed to "get in a bunch" ? Nothing else sounds right .
-
I disagree. You can get your britches in a bunch.
-
I will add though that I do quite like the sound of the word...."panties". Good looking women wear them; others simply have underwear.

No punch needed since I sense a slight embarrassment there. ::hysterical::

It's OK to say "panties"!
