‘No Panty Day’ is a hoax

Don’t remove your underwear just yet, ladies.

Social media was on fire Friday after posts from many Twitter users claimed that Friday, June 22 is officially “No Panty Day” worldwide.

The alleged event was even surreptituously added to a Wikipedia entry on international observance days.

One blogger speculated that the event may have been taken from the “No Pants Day” in United States, an ad campaign, or “maybe just a plain joke.”

Snopes.com, a web site discussing urban legends and Internet rumors, has yet to either debunk or verify the alleged event but the lack of verification from reputable women’s rights groups and activist organizations who may have the gall to pull off such a stunt indicates that “No Panty Day” may just be a hoax.

In April 1, 2011 — in time for April Fools Day — a flashmob prank was pulled off by an American group, Improv Everywhere, wherein over 1,000 people rode the subway without underwear or pants in New York City.

Flash mobs also regularly hold “No Pants Day” fun events in some countries as a practical joke.

Here’s a word of advice if you’ll take the “No Panty Day” seriously — going full commando on the bus during rush hour is not recommended.

      @ hmm

      It is easy to be deceived by news especially on the Internet. What they also do is to take pictures of women and even children who wear short skirts and shorts, as they climb escalators or even stand and walk. What with such cameras, we never know when they take pictures of women and whether they are fully dressed or not. Some of them take pictures of their faces and attach naked bodies to them and post them on the Internet. The world has many perverts of various kinds. One day they will be punished.

      @ free it up

      Says who? It is unhealthy to do. There is a reason why they were invented and why women wear them and men wear underpants. If you want to catch germs do so or keep doing that. :twisted:
      Just remember when you purchase them, prior to wearing them, wash them to eliminate the dirt/dust which may harbour in them and which are not visible to the eyes. Keep in mind many hands touch them during manufacturing and after to the retail stores until you purchase them. Those hands are not usually clean and healthy ones. I bet you never heard of that. Now you know and have learned something hygienic. Hope you keep it in mind and practice it. This is healthy food for thought for all women including men.

      • June 22, 2012

        @Truth and Justice

        I completely agree with you here, but if you have seen those panties that the younger women wear nowadays–something with a thin elastic-like cord that is stretched in, and between the buttocks.

        I have seen them on certain young women at my workplace, which demands a lot of bending. Those women wore pants that went all the way down when they were bending and the top that went all the way up–they do not know that they are completely naked in that bending position.

        The display is so disgusting to look at especially that men were all over the place at my job site.

        I caught one of those men enjoying himself standing behind a beautiful young woman who was bending, and wearing one of those panties. Even to look at her with that thing on, it gave me pain. Surely, I cannot imagine that panties like that are not unhealthy to wear.

      @ Peter Anthony

      The wind could be dangerous. I have a sense of humour within reason. It could be a male wind. :lol: I recall when I resided in DA and the style at one time was large gathered skirts and can-cans or even only large gathered skirts and the wind was blowing, I had to put my hand on the skirt to hold it down so that the wind did not turn up the entire skirt over my face. What an embarrassment it would have been. Women had that problem. This was something else. In those days women were more embarrassed about that than some of them are today. It would have been a good view for the men and peeping toms. How they would love that, eh? :lol: Unlike today, in those days we did not wear slacks or jeans or hardly ever, specifically to certain functions and were well-dressed, also on a Sunday when we went to the Botanical Gardens. We dressed likewise when there were inter-island Cricket and Football Matches especially on a Sunday. Fond and happy memories of those good old days. They should be brought back.
      Today, some women do not wear underwear. They wear such tight clothing and low-top blouses, exposing their personal parts which should be hidden from public view. After all they are going swimming or are on the beach.
      We are residing in a scandalous age. They have to be told and reminded how to dress to work and to certain social gatherings. This is a world-wide situation and a grave concern that some women dress practically naked on the streets. There is no Law for that as long as they somewhat dressed and so they cannot be arrested.
      When I attended a business school/college in Toronto, the students were told to dress as if they are going to the office. Few complied. Some of them will even say that some people are overdressed. I do not have to be told how to dress and what to wear wherever I go and whenever I attend a social function. This has been my custom when I resided in DA and still is. I have not changed in this respect. We are to utilize our common sense and know that there is a time and place for everything and how we should dress, no exception when we go to Church.
      If you are young/younger, you may have missed that era. You have learned something about those days. :) In this age of ideologies and myths this modern era which some are quick to point out is not one of modesty and morality, for some people as much as these will say, “I do not see anything wrong with that”. God sees something wrong in it; why not us. God is taking note.

    Hoax or not, i think this is a fantastic idea.

    Pantyless goes beyond just not wearing underclothes. It symbolizes freedom and the determination to exercise that freedom, in spite of strong social constraints. So, i salute all the ladies who chose not to wear panties, today or occasionally. They have a lot to say for liberating one’s mind and refusing to be shackled by convention, traditions, and the-other-opinion.

    More power to you, ladies.

      A long while ago I had an African boyfriend, form Gambia who did not know English very well. One day as we walked to my home, together with my son, all of a sudden he said: “My panty is too tight!”

      My son and I burst out with laughter and even if we knew what he was talking about, we asked him what is his panty. He told us that it was the “little one” under his pants. We laughed again and so we told him what that “little one” for men, was called in English. :lol: :lol: :lol:

      @ Trueman

      Too uppity up and/or hypocritical! There are times we have to exercise some sense of humour. Note the response. People need a good laugh. What is life without a laugh? Laughter is the best medicine. It clears the mind and even though momentarily it takes us away from the cares of the world and ours.
      I read on a Canadian Website that we do not laugh enough and probably some, not at all as if they are angry with the world. This is true. Paul Keen Douglas said: “You people are too serious.” I love his jokes. Take time out for a little humour. It will not kill you but will do much for your mentality.
      In my private life, I have been told/accused of being too serious but it depends on what is being discussed. I do enjoy a good discussion and a good joke and could make some good ones too when in the mood and depending on the circumstances. This is a good one. We respond to the ones we feel like responding to.
      There are all types of jokes. I have a few book of jokes, some of which I share with others. Laughter is good for us. Keep on smiling and laughing it is worthwhile doing so!
      Just thought of it, DNO gets a good idea about who the readers are and those who comment even though they do not know them personally. :)
