Thoughts on Lingerie
Replies

I would love to be bought lingerie, just not as a birthday/anniversary/Christmas gift. "Here, honey, happy birthday! Now go put this on for me."
It's not really a gift for me then, in that case.
Right, because getting splayed and laid isn't for you. Not even when you're doing this.

Just wanted to add that I always felt sexier in lingerie no matter who bought it for me or what my size was. If my SO bought some for me, I would only be upset if it was too big or too small (Know my size DANGIT!!). But anyway, for us heavier girls try this site. www.hipsandcurves.com

I've bought literally dozens of items for her. There's probably 50 pairs of panties in her drawer right now, to say nothing of other things. It's not practical stuff I admit...but when you've agreed to be with one woman, variety is a good thing.
Agreed. :drinker:0 -
Sexy lingerie is 95% of my lingerie wardrobe. :blushing:
I wear it because it makes me feel good. :smokin:
And when my man buys it for me well, ........BONEUS!!! :drinker:

It would be terrible for a woman to want to and to look sexy.Ailbe1

She said it was more for him than her. I disagreed with her. I think it's actually kind of sexy for a man to buy something sexy for his wife or girlfriend. What do you think?
He should buy her a burqa.

Reactively, your friend's distaste towards her hubby's preference@lingerie style, be it bold & sexy or sensual, luxe & playful, etc is evidently her likely defensive position to negate what is clearly not her; What she'd never choose for herself.
Always is a bonus to allow our men their preferences, with lingerie and sleepwear, for variety, as was committed by one of the regular forum poster's ~ mister universe@variety of knickers plus other impractical things for his woman.
Some women prefer gift cards for their favourite lingerie brands or would rather their men pay for their preferences from the selection of ready-to-wear sets they have on their wish lists or from look books@customised.0 -

When I was in better shape, I adored wearing sexy underthings and even garters and stockings to work. But the heavier I got, the worse my lingerie got! My guy has been with me through thick and thin, literally, so he was getting a little bummed out that the lingerie was disappearing. I personally felt uncomfortable with him buying me anything, felt embarrassed to get lingerie in a 2x! Thank god I found hipsandcurves to be able to buy it for myself.
Can't wait until I am a "normal" size again so he pick a few things out.0 -
I like lingerie. Not all women do. If she doesn't like wearing lingerie and has never shown any interest in it, then I'm puzzled as to why her husband would think it's a good gift. But it's definitely not something to get upset over. It would be like if she randomly brought home a canvas and a set of paintbrushes and asked him to paint her a picture, when he's never painted anything and never expressed any desire to do so. It's a weird gift, but not something that should create friction between them.0

I buy myself sexy underwear and tell him it's his present.
WIN WIN- I get cute stuff and he gets to look at it.
I would love it if he bought me something nice!!!!I like lingerie. Not all women do.

They have a 9 month old baby, and I don't think she's feeling as sexy as she once did. I think she looks amazing, but it might have something to do with it.0 -

hubby might (I freely admit possibly selfishly) trying to make her feel better about herself.
My BF doesn't really care (or insists that he doesn't) he loves me enough to want me to be comfortable and he is one of those guys who is completely blind and thinks I look sexy in sweats and sweatshirts- he's kidn of a sappy moron- but he would absolutely buy me something to try to cheer me up and make me feel better.0 -

Ah. As a mom of 2, I would agree that it may have something to do with it. It can be hard to accept some of the changes that come along, which others can't necessarily see when you are fully clothed. It could also be that she still isn't getting full nights of sleep, and expending more energy towards sex might be the last thing on her mind or list of things she wants to do.0 -
I love to receive lingerie.0

I think it is for everyone!
Makes me feel sexier and he likes to see it.
Would like to add that mostly my bf just think it looks best on the floor.

Your friend's argument reminds me of the logic (perhaps using that term loosely) espoused in some of the classes on Gender Studies taught at my old college in the 1990's. Basically, any present that a guy bought for a woman was his way of oppressing her, as was anything a woman bought that could be perceived as sexy or related to so-called 'traditional' gender roles. For added fun, any guy who declined to pay for things or asked that expenses be shared was also guilty of misogyny by virtue of those acts, for reasons I never fully grasped.I was talking with one of my friends earlier who told me she was quite upset that her husband bought her lingerie. She said it was more for him than her. I disagreed with her. I think it's actually kind of sexy for a man to buy something sexy for his wife or girlfriend. What do you think?0 -
I'm guessing there's more to it than that the lingerie gift bothered her?0

I keep agreeing with you in the forums this week.I was talking with one of my friends earlier who told me she was quite upset that her husband bought her lingerie. She said it was more for him than her. I disagreed with her. I think it's actually kind of sexy for a man to buy something sexy for his wife or girlfriend. What do you think?
I agree with you!
I wish mine would buy me some.. I always buy my own.0 -

So the guy is f***** coming or going? :laugh: :laugh:0 -
I love it when my husband buys me lingerie. Yes it's a present for him too but what's wrong with that? Nice lingerie makes me feel sexy so I enjoy wearing it as much as he likes to see in it.
It's nice to think he's something and though 'my wife would look hot in that'.0 -

Even though I don't have a romantic partner and am 66, I like pretty and even sexy underwear, as long as it actually can be worn under clothing and I can go to the bathroom relatively easy wearing it. I buy my own but think would also enjoy it as a gift....:o).0 -
I would think it would be a compliment to her. He obviously thinks she is sexy enough to pull it off0
-
I buy my own with his tastes in mind. I figure it's a gift for both of us. I would NOT be upset if he bought me something, but he knows I'm particular about fit.0

My first husband bought me lingerie back in the day. That was fun!
Now...well...I'm just a fat old lady. Not going there....yet.

I think it would be hot for my man to buy me something sexy! It just shows that he WANTS to see your body, and that would be taken as a great compliment 0

Ok, to make this productive.
What are good sources for lingerie other than the odd stuff at Adam & Eve?0 -
Ebay, if you like to rip it up. You can find stuff that is cheap and cheaply made; good for one-time-use.0

Frederick's of Hollywood is a top choice! Victoria's Secret is always a good choice, depending on how much you're willing to spend 0
