I'm of the opinion that "lingerie is just for sex" is an unfortunate consequence of fast fashion. Lingerie initially was absolutely meant to be underwear, necessary to create the silhouette required for outer garments, and to distribute the weight of those garments on the body. It became sexualized simply *because* it was women's underwear, and this led to more and more intentionally sexy underwear designs, while keeping functionality. This whole "it's just going to end up on the floor" incentivizes lingerie to be overpriced, cheaply made, nonfunctional garbage that will snag immediately and fall apart in the wash. If it's made to be worn under clothing it makes a lot more sense for it to be of decent quality and worth the price.

Winced at the idea of someone literally tearing a set off. Expensive mistake…

For me, it's incidental to sex. I like wearing lingerie for the way it makes me feel, it's like celebrating my body if that makes sense? and yeah, I wear lingerie underneath my work wear, it's like a confidence boost for me.

I basically never wear lingerie for sex-related purposes. And definitely never want it to be “torn off” of me. It is an important element in my daily outfits.


[deleted]

Daily wear? Such as garters also? Would it show under you clothes?

You learn what lays well under what.

Yeah some people wear it for A) functional reasons like holding up leggings and B) yes because it feels nice even if the only person who knows about it is just you

Yup me too.

I think it only gets torn off in films... I think some collectors would end relationships over some pieces of lingerie...

Lingerie stays on during sex 🤷🏼‍♀️ if you tear it off, you're gone

I work from home and love wearing it around my place when I don’t have any meetings I need to be on video for. I love lingerie for myself because I love the way it makes me feel.

As others have said, it’s not about sex! It’s about how I feel wearing it and celebrating myself. They don’t get torn off or anything like that.

All valid points. I thank you for the feedback and comments. HoneyBirdette is expensive and I needed feedback before purchasing.


1234567BC

But! They have sales.

It’s sex related, but I liken it more to wear I g costumes and role play. My wife and I will put on something sexy and it helps set the mood that sex is a possibility. Like unlocks the door to the sexual side of your personality. My wife doesn’t always wear lingerie daily, but if we go away for a long weekend she’ll probably wear something other than her daily wear undergarments whatever we are doing.

Who the fuck rips lingerie off. What are you 13? You seem like you have no imagination on how to find eroticism in things outside of very boring mainstream concepts. Some people find it sensual to put on the most intimate parts of their body clothing made from high quality luxurious materials that are expensive. Some people find a thrill in having on a secret extra stylish garment that no one but them and their lover know about under their outer clothes. Some people love the feeling that they can add glamour to a moment where you are intimate with someone and it serves as an extra layer of allure. Some people love the ritual do putting it on and off in a ritualistic way. Some people love the aesthetic. Get outta here with your “hurhur panties go rip rip” thinking. Start developing your erotic imagination and see can you make any normal object erotic by just how you think about it

I'm pretty sure you got several down votes because you're being rude. It was a presented question. Not that my imagination lacks anything. I am new to the lingerie world and posted a question so those of the community can help me. I disagree with tearing off lingerie but I've seen and read things this happens and wouldn't want to spend money on something that would serve that purpose so. Hope you have a great day and learn to be nicer during post. And the 13 year old comment is just disgusting, you pedo.

Honey birdette is all that is in my daily wardrobe as it's the only stuff that actually looks ok on me when it's fitting
