Never pantyhose to work again

[Maria 60]

In the winter I wear think leggings to work and in the spring I go to a thinner legging. This year for the first time I started wearing tights. Yesterday already being a Monday after a long weekend I went to pull up the tights and I ripped them. Not wanting to go rummaging in the bedroom and wake up my wife I found a pair of black pantyhose. I've never wore pantyhose to work before and thought it would make a boring Monday interesting. Well worst decision ever, I didn't get anything done, I was out of focus and I couldn't concentrate at all. Everytime I moved I felt the smooth and silk feeling rubbing against my work pants. I was more careful with what I was going because I didn't want it to be the day I rip my work pants and exspose them. Well I'm not doing that again unless if I want to loss my job, but it was exciting, but risky. I know it's not the most interesting post but I feel like when something exciting happens I want to express it. I have a very open relationship with my wife and when I came home I told her what I thought was an exciting day. But she was listening with a "yah,yah" with her face into her phone on Instagram. I guess it's more exciting finding out about everybody else's life. Thanks for letting me share my excitement.

Maria, your story kind of made me smile as I thought back to when I wore hose under my pants in cold weather back in the late 80s to early 90s. I got away with it for the most part. I even wore some thigh highs a few times but was always worried about them slipping to my feet without warning even though that never happened in front of anyone. So one day I had the thigh highs on, and I came home from work and sat on the sofa. After a while my wife sat next to me and put her hand on my leg. Darned if she didn?t immediately feel the thigh high elastic band and I was busted. I did not do that again. My luck she just happened to put her hand there. I just thought I would share that as it seems funny looking back on it but not so at the time.

Glad I don't have to worry about what others think.

For several years I wore long leg panty girdles with nylons. I had a couple girls feel my legs and find my fasteners. I wore panty hose for many years. They became just standard wear. When petty pant slips became popular I included them. The women wore them under their business suit shorts that were popular at the time. I never had any problems with wearing panty hose.

One day I was in a department store looking at lingerie. A woman came up to the SA that was talking to me and asked her how to keep her slip from having static electricity. The SA said wear a pair of panties over your pantyhose. The woman and I listened to the SA and the woman wanted to buy a pair of panties so the SA guided her to another table. I was about to leave when the SA came back and asked if I had found anything I liked. I told her that I wasn't sure they were the right size. She told me, If you are wearing panties you can try them on over them. I took the offer and purchased them. This was back in the 70s

[JennniferMcC]

Aww, c'mon. You know you'll be wearing them again. I know I will.😊

[Aka_Donna]

Thank you, that is annoying. I finally figured out the terms from lightest to heaviest

sheer pantyhose
40 denier pantyhose
80 denier pantyhose
tights
leggings
yoya pants
etc, say boring....

[Kay J]

I wore pantyhose quite often when i was working now retired stockings mostly!

[Cacique82]

I tried pantyhose a few times years ago but found them constricting. I much prefer thigh highs w/silicone or garter stockings. I?d give ph another try sometime though. Everything in the waist area was tight, legs felt great.

[alwayshave]

Maria, I wear stockings not pantyhose, but I know what you mean about the feeling.

[Linda E. Woodworth]

For the last 10 years at work I wore pantyhose under my slacks. Yes, I had to be more careful but I've done it for so many years it has come to feel natural.

I feel off when I DON'T wear hose under my pants.

[Nic J]

Maria, good for you for trying it.:thumbsup: Tights do feel nice under trousers. Underdressing is great for those of us who are not out to public.
I always wear tights under my trousers for work, unless it is hot weather. Fortunately it's not hot here very often. (some say English summer is the best day of the year :heehee:)

Linda, that's how i feel now. Underdressed is the norm. :thumbsup:

[NancySue]

I?ve also worn both pantyhose and thigh highs for years and know exactly what you felt. Recently, I mostly wear thigh highs or nylon stockings with either a garter belt or girdle. Slipping on hose of any kind in the mornings start my day with a smile.

[Stephanie D]

Outside of thermal or heavy weight tights, does anyone else find that when you are outside, and it's cold, even while worn under a pair of pants, work pants or jeans, that it can feel FREEZING!
I honestly thought to myself, how the heck can so many GG's wear a skirt and nylons when it's snowing out??
I have to give them kudo's!!

Which leads me to a spin-off point.
Could you imagine, if more SO's, wive's, GF's, were more open to their partner dressing and using makeup?

Then they would REALLY understand when we say to them, "hey, you look so fantastic, and your makeup looks perfect, your nails, or, do you want to wear my coat because it's cold?"
Because they would realize, that we better understand their personal struggle to make it all happen, then they would REALLY know that the compliment (or concern) becomes so much more personal, insightful and meaningful.
Yea I know...I'm a dreamer :doh:

I never wore pantyhose to work. I did wear a panty sometimes, but, found it was too bothersome. I had to sit on the toilet rather than stand before a urinal. Based upon the rave reviews I read on this forum I tried under dressing when I retired. Usually in the late fall and winter when I wore a sweatshirt I'd fully under dress; bra, panty, camisole, pantyhose. Two things I did not care for about under dressing; one, it was bothersome to use a public bathroom, and, two I did not feel anything positive. I did switch to thigh high stockings worn with a garter girdle. The pants did not hug my legs so the tabs did not show when walking. It made it easier to use public bathroom, but, it still did nothing for me. Now as a retiree I usually wear either a black or a white nylon brief.

[docrobbysherry]

Maria, I think u explained the excitement of under dressing!:o

When I tried it, like u I found the gear I wore quite distracting! Altho, pantyhose were the least of my worries! The tite, restricting, girdle and bra were what I noticed the most. In fact, the constant irritation caused by those items cured me of under dressing forever in just over a week!:doh:

[MarinaTwelve200]

I have always had trouble with panty hose SPLITTING on my thighs (Blowouts) when I sit on a soft chair or couch---Not that I am fat, but usually the size is too small and the hose is "Cheap"-----In my disguise shopping, I discovered the solution. They make HOSE with an attached "Garter-belt" arrangement instead of the "panties" part. My Fishnets are all that way. Much more forgiving--no more Blowouts.

[Pumped]

I wear pantyhose under my work pants all the time, except in warm weather.

To spice it up a bit, wear stockings and a garter belt. I do that from time to time.

[BarbDriscoll]

Like some others here, I found underdressing at work much too distracting. Only did it a couple of times. Newly retired (thanks to the pandemic) and still getting used to being able to dress all the time.

[Joni T]

Why do some of you like to push the envelope, especially where you could be put in a very uncomfortable position? Please enlighten me. Personally, I can't see jeopardizing one's livelihood for a few hours of a cheap thrill.

What are the chances that someone will find out you are under dressing at work? Unless you have a heart attack at work the chances are nil. it is not like management does an surprise underwear check.

[Aka_Donna]

Easy, peasy. Go to REI, and look for base layers, which are basically updated material tights designed for warmth. There is the same time of garment available for cyclists, but look for without the chamois

There have been many threads/postings of bra straps and adjusters being discovered by women. Stay with the panties if you must.

Exactly, and even if they did, what would they do about it. In Europe and America, if they tried to sack you, they'd be breaking the law.

[abby054]

I found the same thing about wearing pantyhose under my trousers. It is too distracting. In my line of work, I must get the job done well or I get fired. I cannot afford being distracted. That goes double on the days when I work around our heavy machinery. After underdressing pantyhose once forty years ago, I never did it again.

[Linda E. Woodworth]

After wearing pantyhose under my slacks at work for a while I didn't even notice them.

Yes, my job could be stressful and tense at times. The hosiery never impacted my performance and when the **#)$*$ hit the rotary air impellor I was off and running taking care of business and hosiery be damned.

It never mattered a bit.

[jacques]

hello Maria,
I like under-dressing wearing sheer tights (UK for pantyhose). It does make me aware of my actions - remembering not to bend down.
A warning - they are more shiny that panties - once I was in a cafe with my wife; when I got up from the table my trousers slipped down; the cafe went silent; my wife did not notice!
be careful out there!
luv J

[Bruce64]

I wear pantyhose to sleep, work, home, whenever I want, pantyhose is fun, I drive a Truck and wear Brassiere, enjoy life.

[Dianna_ericka]

Hi Maria, I like your post.
I am a Pantyhose lover, I?ve been able to adapt to the sensation that distract and got to the point that I can work while wearing them.
I have to use safety boots, and my adventure some times is to wear my Pantyhose with no socks, so I have to be carefully to keep my pants covering my calfs and avoid other to see my legs and Pantyhose. I really enjoy the risk to be caught and after several years I am still safe.

[Jenny22]

I am fully under dressed when out in drab. I wear a pair of thin socks to cover my thigh highs where my trouser legs creep up when sitting.

[Karmen]

I wear pantyhose under my male pants all the time, except in the summer, because it's too hot. When you wear them on a daily basis, you get so used to them as you're used to wearing underwear.

[Trione]

I have been a fan of pantyhose for years. First worn them to fight chiggers when hunting, then started to wear them for warmth when riding M/C. Mostly wear them for the feeling.

[Krisi]

I don't know why you would wear pantyhose under your pants to work unless you were working outside in cold weather, but I can't see the risk. You're not going to drop your drawers in front of your co-workers so the only real risk would be if you got hurt on the job and medics had to cut your pants off.

My wife worried about me wearing panties until I pointed that out.

[CynthiaD]

Pantyhose are the only socks I have (almost) I wear them all day every day.

Also, I'm reminded of a conversation I had with an airport TSA agent who was patting me down in a random check.

"Wow, you have really tight underwear."
"I'm wearing pantyhose."
"Oh, oh! That's OK, that's OK."

[Maria 60]

Well Cynthia that's kind of funny because I was going on vacation a few years back and wanted to make a long flight more interesting and wore pantyhose under my pants with no socks. I walk threw the scanner and it beeped, she asked me to go back and remove my shoes. When I turned around now there was a line behind me, I had no choice but to remove my shoes in front of a lot of strangers. I took of my shoes with my head high and walked threw, it didn't beep and she was looking down at my feet with a smirk on her face. I looked down to see the black renforced toe of the pantyhose, and I didn't look to see who was behind me. Let's just say my wife was not amused by it.

[Karmen]

I don't know why you would wear pantyhose under your pants to work unless you were working outside in cold weather, but I can't see the risk. You're not going to drop your drawers in front of your co-workers so the only real risk would be if you got hurt on the job and medics had to cut your pants off.

It probably depends on the country where you live, but I can wear 10-20 den pantyhose most of the year under suit pants in my office and outside too. The risk of exposing your panties and pantyhose is when peeing, if you use a urinal and someone accidentally check out your penis. I always use bathroom stall because of that.
You can also unintentionally expose your underwear or pantyhose at the back when you squat, if you're wearing a short Tshirt. I always wear long shirts in the office or long Tshirts with jeans on casual Fridays because of that.

[MichaelM]

Sheer tights (in the UK) under suit trousers feel fantastic especially when you get that glide feeling due ot the insides of some trousers.

My confidence about underdressing at work has ebbed and flowed. Aside from being careful when bending down, I'm paranoid that someone, somehow, is going to notice. So I can go days without wearing but then build up my confidence to wear on a daily basis. Its strange as there's no way to know from looking at someone - a reason why I switched from stockings and the tell-tale strap - although I always try and guess the crossdresser when walking around town.

The issue I have is the practicality of underdressing with tights. To conceal the waistband, I have my normal pants (underwear for the US) over the top and socks on my feet. Plus rather than wearing tights without underwear, I started wearing ladies knickers. However, getting all this on and off is a real pain!

[lingerieLiz]

Having worn nylons and girdles pantyhose was easy to move too. I never had a problem with what I wore under my pants. I liked wearing garter belts and girdles.

I don't understand why others do.

[michellecd9999]

I love pantyhose and stockings. I started using the excuse of wearing them when the weather was cold. Also when out hunting or hiking in Spring or Fall they protect against red bugs. Soon wearing them to work in cold days.

[Paulie Birmingham]

Never wear pantyhose to work when you plan on going to gym at lunch and have to change. That created some issues. Lol

Otherwise Iove pantyhose under suit pants . Nothing like closing million dollar deals while wearing panties and or pantyhose

[Patience]

I was out of focus and I couldn't concentrate at all.

I hope you're not a dentist, Maria.


I was more careful with what I was going because I didn't want it to be the day I rip my work pants and exspose them.

Ok, you are probably not a dentist.

It sounds like you enjoyed yourself too much for your own good. Maybe there is something you can do that will give you a fraction of that thrill (assuming you want it) without exposing you (no pun intended) or putting your mind off your work.

One thing I can suggest is clear nail polish. Literally an empty gesture, but you will know it is there.

[Marcella59]

I love pantyhose and stockings. I will wear pantyhose in the cooler months for underdressing. It?s too hot in the south in the warmers months. I?m trying knee highs for work lately. Different, for sure.

[GretchenM]

When I was a teenager and I went skiing almost every weekend, on cold days I would wear them. I found it was a great excuse - not only exciting but kept me warm. Some other skiers wore them as well, but I suspect for most of them it was a matter of warmth. Not as bulky as long underwear. No problem in the bathrooms to see some guy, maybe me, lower his pants, pull down pantyhose and pee. Any excuse to wear them would do for me.

[coleenedinburgh]

I do not wear pantyhose but I do wear stockings suspenders and panties as a minimum everyday. I wear to work under my male clothing the women in the office know I crossdress but I have many clients that do not hence must wear male drab when in the office. When working from home well that's different it will be a nice dress or skirt and top.

[DianeT]

I have a very open relationship with my wife and when I came home I told her what I thought was an exciting day. But she was listening with a "yah,yah" with her face into her phone on Instagram. I guess it's more exciting finding out about everybody else's life. Thanks for letting me share my excitement.
You could not share your excitement with your wife because she didn't pay attention this time. On the other hand, judging from previous posts of yours, your wife seems to be to the accepting GG category what Usain Bolt is to sprint competition. I believe that more than a few CDers in these forums are dreaming of a wife that would accept just a fraction of what yours does. If you are in a DADT situation, the simple fact of having your wife paying limited attention to the account of your pantyhose adventures would be like winning the Olympics.
Instagram or not, you are one lucky hubby :itsok:.

[Amy Lee]

I?m a Home Care Nurse and on my feet a lot. I wear Leggs Sheer Energy pantyhose every day under my scrubs. I feel naked without them. I live in Florida, where it gets rather hot in the summer, but I still wear my pantyhose every day! Love them!!

[BTWimRobin]

Hi Maria,

Sometimes some of those sensations we get from what we wear can be little too distracting. Thanks for sharing.

[JennniferMcC]

I once read about an airline pilot who always wore his pantyhose to work. Great! Now I'm nervous about flying! 😂

[joan47]

I was in sales for over thirty years and on the road a lot. I would always underdress with panty girdle with hose, soft bra , panties and pettipants and perfume. When sitting down you could always see my garter fastener. I don?t know if anyone noticed but I loved feeling so feminine.
