9. This is like the whole question of dancing for Baptists
Edited on Tue May-05-09 10:05 PM by OmahaBlueDog
It's not the dancing that is, in and of itself, sinful.....it's what the dancing leads to

29. Your fotos suggest
"Under" the panties for the uppermost set.
"Over" for the lower set.


Most ambiguous!

11. I remember when Encyclopedia Brown knew that the dead woman was a sex crime victim...
because her garter straps were on the outside of her panties.
Smart lad, that Brown kid

15. For comfort's sake...
...as far as I'm concerned, anyway. It's generally a heavier and/or thicker material than the undies, and I would find it uncomfortable to have the undies over it.

Your mileage may vary, of course. :D

19. Well
It's been nearly fifty years since I wore a garter belt, but to be functional, it was under the panties. If it was just for show, I guess no panties were needed.

Otherwise peeing is just too complex an operation. Imagine slipping your underwear down from underneath the garter belt and then, getting them back UP and under the belt without taking off the garter belt or creating wrinkles in the fabric to irritate your skin. I guess it can be done but I never managed it.

22. That is what I thought, too
I wear them under for that very reason. Most current cheesecake shots show them over. Why? Is that more pleasing to the male eye?

23. apparently...I think it's the hint of bondage
I don't get why they are thought to be sexy at all ..it's just kind of a fetish that has somehow become a staple of mainstream erotica.

27. I think it's a matter of IF I WERE TO WEAR a garter belt
When I was first introduced to them I also thought I would much rather have my nice soft underwear next to my skin, but... Also if you wear them on the outside the straps don't stay close to your leg when you sit; they kind of tent up a skirt.

they were something you put on just long enough for someone else to get them off of you.

Then I'll want to keep them on for that situation...another reason for them to be under instead of over. :D

wears the panties OVER the garters - hence the garters UNDER the panties ( if panties are involved at all).

Sheesh - kids today!

38. Gather around and listen up, children
1. the garter belt is the fetish gear. It's what you want to end up with or the last to be without

2. If the garter belt is on top of the underwear, the garter belt and stockings have to come off to get the underwear off. Or the garters have to be undone, underwear slipped out of, garters reattached. Just a buzz kill.

3. On the other hand of the garter belt is underneath, you can wear the rig out if you want and vamp it up. One does see kool kids in clubs around here showing some garter (since skirts are about that length) and even wearing seamed stockings. And you can drink and dance and dammit PEE before you take someone home! I call that foreplay, myself.

4. If you are just using the garter belt for a bedroom show, you still want to be able to keep it on even if you have nothing else on...that's the purpose of fetish gear. But I think you start with underwear on for the drama at least.

5. Garter belt on top is for retro photography only. Enough said.

48. garter belts are UNDER
the panties....otherwise you can't pee! I hated wearing pantyhose, and started wearing garter belts and stockings...much better than pantyhose when your job requires you to have "nylons" on your legs (this was in the 80's and 90's).

I no longer work corporate (have my own company), but if I had to go back to wearing nylons, it would be garter belts and stockings for me!

PS my husband loved them too! ;)
