Do you wear your clothes more than once before wash?

So it's something you've discussed with your friends then? :eek:
"Hey, Mary, what do *you* do to keep your gusset dry?" :rotfl:

Yeah. In person, on messageboards, yes I have. My doctor also told me it's very normal and common and advised cotton knickers, preferably light coloured and pantyliners. Magic knickers and shapewear are apparently the worst thing you can wear. My mum doesn't have an overabundance of bodily fluids, but she has the occasional unexpected tiny urine leak so she uses them too. Both of us can soak through a gusset. It's always a question that's asked about at school when we do sex education too.

Not exactly, but I know - just like I know who's got haemorrhoids and painful periods, and who has "never been the same" since the birth of their youngest. :eek:

I work with women, I'm friends with women, I'm related to women, I've lived with women, gone supermarket shopping with women, nipped into Boots with women, and for women, used other women's bathrooms, and I have been on holiday with women - and yes we do talk. About everything. :eek:

I have one friend who doesn't use pantyliners who likes to joke that it's because she doesn't lead such an exciting life as us other girls, implying that we must be in a state of semi arousal at all times. :eek::o :rotfl:

But she keeps clean knickers in the zip pocket of her handbag just in case.

OMG Jacks that is hilarious!!!

To the people that wash there clothes after one days wear, do you find the clothes are not lasting as long, i say this as clothes i've had for a while go out of shape, and just look knackered if they've been washed and washed....

I'm a one wear then wash girl, and so is my mum, and at weekends I live in her band T shirts from the 80s so I think they are holding up quite well.

I go to the gym virtually every night after work so I put my work clothes in one zip compartment of my bag. take my face off, tie my hair back and freshen up my pits and bits with wipes, then put on fresh workout gear.

After my session I shower, wash my hair and put fresh clothes on for the journey home. Even though I've showered I'm still usually "running hot" so I wouldn't wear any of these clothes again without washing them.

This is just me though, and I imply no judgement of people who do things differently, and I accept no judgement from other people about how I choose to live my life either. Like Jacks says, horses for courses.

I always go home from the gym in my workout gear and then shower at home. I prefer my own shower to the gym's.

Some of my jeans haven't been washed in months. A lot of my dry clean only stuff gets worn a lot too.

If it don't smell, it dont need washing!

underwear clean every day, clean top every day, may wear trousers 2 days if I haven't had them on very long as I get changed into pyjamas when I get home no matter what time of day it is

DS has a clean school uniform every day, clean PE kit for every wear, clean t shirt for after school but may wear trackie pants twice

OH wears his clothes for about 2 days as gets changed into a uniform at work, bath when he arrives home and into trackie bottoms so doesn't actually have the clothes on for very long. Will have clean clothes every day when off work.
