[Show Me Naked]

When I have to get dressed, I do not wear any underrwear. I hate clothes so even when I am dressed I wear as little as possible.

[FireProf]

None, zero, nada...........havent' worn any consistantly for almost 35 years, whether at work, at home or at play! http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

[nudenwv]

free baller for me since eightteen.

[MarvinJS]

For me, the only time I use underwear now (boxers) is if I have dress slacks on.

http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif I very rarely use dress slacks nowadays, so as a general rule, you would most likely find me going commando.

[River City Nudist]

The only time I wear underware (boxers) is @ work. Work told me I had to. We get dressed in our work cloths in the shop and some time the office women come down to the shop. They complained about me being nude. Oh well 5 more years and I'll retire. Then I'll them hehe.

[Naturist Mark]

I often wear boxers, but not as underwear.

[oznudewalker]

I only wear boxers occasionally, but most often it's commando for me. Much more comfortable, particularly now its summer time in Australia. I've noticed a lot more men not wearing underwear when they change at the gym.
Happy New Year to all.

I knew it!! You wear them on your head don't you!!!! http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_razz.gif

Personally, the only time I wear my boxer is when he insists on laying on my lap. Of course, he is a boxer/mastiff mix...does that still count?

They are much better than do rags, they come in lots of fashionable prints and drape nicely over the back of my neck preventing sunburn.

They can also be worn as shorts when running outside to get the mail, put out the garbage, mow the lawn etc. Or as a nice loose quick pull on when stopped for gas etc. on long trips.

[DJ Guy Productions]

I do the tighty whities, but when I am home it's let it all hang out and quick. I have gone free balling before yes.

ROFLMAO!

I knew it! The Post Office has a spy-cam in my den. That's the only way 'fish could have got a picture of me wearning my boxer headgear!

Attica! Attica!

[HBJosh]

All of the above for me. Depends on what I'm going to be doing.

[fredm74]

I've just recently gone commando.
It's no big deal either way. Wearing underwear doesn't make you less of a nudist.

[bikerbare]

Only when out on the motorcycle, otherwise the bumps in the road become quite annoying.

[Lilwilly]

I often go commando in the summer months. When I do wear underwear I look for the briefest possible bikinis.

[ScubaRay]

I don't wear anything under my clothes- that way I can say I'm nake underneath. What I see of boxer they must ride up or bunch up. I can't see why anyone would wear something so bulky. I haven't wore anything for 20yrs (since high school) and won't go back.
Ray

[cirram]

It's commando for me. Only time I'll wear boxers is doctor's/hospital visit, or if I know I'm gonna get wet at parties or events (water fights, etc..)

[MJ_KC]

I have been giving it a try and it does feel better, but I still plan to wear underwear to work. Just not willing to totally toss the underwear away.

[Nues]

Usually freeballing.

[ncnudlady]

Can the ladies get in this club?

Don't own any underwear who needs them with a skirt anyway. (don't wear pants either)

[nacktman]

What's underwear? http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

[Sauna]

In my country wintertime it is a must to use underwear and with long slacks or you will be free of your balls rest of your life.

But where the temperature allows it, there is no reason to use them. Earlier the washing of clohes needed them but no more. It was easier to cook the the white underwear than wash the other clothes.

[picco]

only wear underwear for work g string type

[Douglas Carrington]

Hell, sure glad this thread is still going.But maybe, a poll should have been started.After all is said, I am a nudist and a freeballer and I am proud of both.

Doug

[BEE-1]

Only at work and I know the days coming where I wont be wearing them at work too, PEACE http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

[nudetone]

I wear underwear to work and when wearing jeans-- can't get used to rough surface of jeans w/o underwear.

[Rabid_Clam]

I usually wear shorts, like using a towel to sit on while nude is good sanitary practise.

[Garry]

Before the day I was put in a wheelchair, boxers or long underwear (depending on the season) at work and none when not working. I drove a forklift and jumping up & down was a little uncomfortable w/o some type of undewear. Now I don't even own a single pair.

ewwwww! Sitting in shorts just doesn't sound sanitary at all. The shorts are like a filth sponge that hold contamination next to your skin and spreads it onto every surface you sit upon.

Everyone should sit on a towel, whether clothed or nude, it's just the right thing to do.

-Mark

[FireProf]

I thought about replying as you did Mark but shyed away, only to return and decide to throw my two cents in about that very comment.

So...........does that statement made by Rabid Clam mean that those of us that prefer to go Commando are less sanitary then those that wear underwear or shorts?

I sure don't want to get into a descriptive debate about how clean or sanitary we are but Clam, don't you think that many of us that do go
Commando are cognizant of this and ensure we are sanitary because we are not wearing underwear? http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

[OZJames]

Fire Prof. - Sanitory wise, I don't think it makes any difference whether people wear undies or just pants. Both should be washed at reasonable intervals.

At a New Years eve party we had lots of laughs when some of the women there wanted to know whether riding a horse "commando" caused some painful experiances when body parts hit the saddle pommel - http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_mad.gif ouch. I allways wear fairly tight fitting undies when on a horse.

Does anyone ride horses "commando" ?

[nudeM]

Haven't worn underwear for such a long time, I had to stop to remember what they were. The only time I wear them is when I am all dressed up, i.e., dress slacks. Other than that, commando all the way, even with jeans. http://clothesfreeforums.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_cool.gif

I think that goes without saying! http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/wink3.gif

I don't wear any when I wear dress slacks as well. We just went to a New Years Eve party and I wore slacks and a sweater and if it were warm enough, I probably wouldn't have worn socks but I still went commando. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/laugh.gif

[Longhairbear]

I go commando quite often, most usually at home when not nude. Whether wearing shorts or jeans or dress slacks, I wash them as often I would briefs or boxers. Which is after each time I wear them. Of course the old jeans,or shorts might get a couple of days use.

[travros]

at home only nude wth children and wife it feels like comfort

[\"K\" town nude]

I like support for the package in the form of thongs. Almost commando!

[DouglasG]

Interesting to note that only one female has replied to this thread. I wonder why?

Anyway, as Sauna pointed out, in chillier climes, underwear is a necessity. That said, if I have an reason/excuse to wear my kilt, then it's always commando. It might surprise you chaps to know that a kilt is a very warm item of clothing & always guarantees a (usually positive) reaction from the ladies. Often the first question is, what's worn under your kilt? The reply is always the same .. nothing, it's all in perfect working order!

[gn225]

For those of you who are commandos, a question. I found that, when wearing dress slacks at work, the lining doesn't cover the zipper on the inside and that metal zipper rubbing on the penis produced significant discomfort. After a couple of week determining that it's the same with all my dress slacks (and one particularly awful day that ended with a raw spot on the head of the penis) I gave up and reverted to underwear. Anybody else have this problem?

Never happens with cotton chinos, though. Don't know why.

[foux003]

I have never heard of it being called comando. Its always been free balling it around here.

I wondered about what you said regarding the zipper on dress slacks so I went upstairs and looked at all of my slacks to see if what you said was certain. I must admit that all my dress slacks have material covering the zipper on the inside. Probably why I've never encountered the problem you had.

http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/cool4.gif

[gn225]

Well, now that you mention it, the pair I'm wearing right now have an inside flap as well. I don't wear those older slacks any more, maybe it was that particular manufacturer . . . I do remember that bad day when I was glad my slacks were charcoal to hide the blood stains . . .

[Baremore]

Re foux003's question about the term 'commando.' I have to admit that I never heard either term, free-balling or commando, until I had internet access. It has been only in the past three years that I have stopped wearing underwear, but would like to offer one possibility for the origin of 'commando." When I was an infantryman in the jungles of Vietnem, the heat and humdity really did a number on us. Underwear was the first item to go after about 24-36 hours into your first exposure to the jungle. They were the source of severe rashes, etc. Noone wore them after that. I don't recall, but I do believe some where finally made available for the trip home to the US where old habits were re-established. I think the term commando may have its origins in this common Vietnam experience of thousands of infantryman.

[FireProf]

Baremore,

Glad you chimed in here with that explaination. I think you are on target with the origin of the word "commando" in reference to going without underwear.

Though I did not spend anytime in the jungles of Vietnam, I did spend time there on board a destroyer right off the coast and worked down in the engine room. I had already been going commando since my sophomore year in HS, when I noticed many of my track and football teammates doing this. While in the Navy and working in the engine room aboard ship, I found that because it was so hot in the engine room and we would sweat continuously, wearing underwear would only cause irritation to many sensitive portions of my crotch. Many of my shipmates experienced this as well and noticed I did not wear underwear ever and did not have these symptoms, thus.....many of them began going commando as well and I doubt that the ships laundry washed many pairs of underwear at all! http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/laugh.gif

The first time I ever heard of the term commando referring to not wearing underwear, was many years ago on the show FRIENDS.

When asked why he had to wear underwear in his rented tux, Joey, who often stated that he didn't wear underwear, stated, "It's a rented Tux. I'm not goin' Commando in another man's fatigues."

At the end of the show, Rachel said that she was also "going Commando."


Within a couple years, that's the term I heard used most often.

I don't know if the term was used before that, but I believe it was that episode that brought it into the lexicon.

BTW, I haven't worn underwear in decades, though a few years ago I tried some flannel boxers when it got really cold, but I hated it and decided the cold wasn't that bad.

Also, when warmer, I often wear a kilt and always go commando.

[Longhairbear]

I have always wanted to try wearing a kilt, and especially when freeballing.

[FireProf]

Guys........believe me.........the term "commando"(relating to not wearing underwear) was used way before some of those "Friends" stars were wearing underwear! http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/wink3.gif

I was in Boot Camp in 1971 and the word "commando" was being thrown around regarding going without underwear. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/happy.gif

[Baremore]

I just did a google search with "commando" and "underwear" as the search terms. Quite a few sites came up and the general consenus is the term was introduced to publice usage around 1974 and got its real boost from the aforementioned TV show. Wikipedia acknowleges the probable origin in the Vietnam experience.

[cigarhog]

Freeballing here since becoming nudist. The only time I wear underwear at all is in dress pants. Its as close as you can get to feeling nude with clothes on. On the rare times I feel that I need to wear them I can't breathe until they come off. Which can be a difficult situation after a few hours

[nudekid1]

I have now taken to wearing no underwear to school but i am careful to not bend over too far. What is the purpose of underwear? However when i do have to wear it i opt for thongs or a G-string as then i'm virtually wearing nothing anyway.

[stcloud50]

I stopped wearing underware over a year ago due to some postings. The feel is great and when necessary to wear underware I am really pleased that I have gone bare underneath.

[Msgt53]

It has been almost 2 years since wearing underwear, and to put it on now feels extremely uncomfortable.

[fred950]

whether or not I go commando has more to do with the pants I (have to) wear. When I wear jeans or pants of similar heavy material, I am ALWAYS freeballin'. Some of the lighter weight pants have a tendency to bunch up in my butt crack. That's when I put unders on.

[Pantsfree]

I'm allways "commando" too. In the summer time in my garden i'm only wearing a long shirt - very very pleasant.
The only problem, I've found so far was once at a party, when I was dancing with a beautyful woman. I was wearing very thin and rather loose pants, and she was dancing very close to me. She could suddenly feel, that I was fond of her, but that only made her dance even closer. It was very lovely - but also very embarassing for me. Some other woman might have been mad at me.

[chadnude]

I go commando often as possible, prob 5 out of 7days. I find some clothing more than others works. Jeans for example are great, thin or fine trousers less so.
The only other time i wear underwear is visits to the doctor.

[Pieguy]

I use briefs most of time 'cept when nude.

[PT]

I go commando when home and on the weekends, at work boxers.

[Bare in the Desert]

For me its more of a seasonal thing. I wear mostly jeans in the winter and they can have some pretty scratchy seams. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/shocked.gif

[justnude]

if/when clothes are required I remain "free" underneath!

[florida-david]

I always go commando, but it does get uncomfortable with pants as I am cut. I would think that being uncut would work better. Luckily I work at home and only need to wear pants for a few hours (MAXIMUM) per day. But when I worked in an office, I would go commando one day, and underwear the next so I would not rub myself raw....

[NudeAl]

In cold weather I sometimes prefer something underneath but weather permitting I enjoy the feeling of freedom not wearing anything underneath gives. It's the next best thing to being naked.

I am also circumcised and have not worn underware for many years without any problem.

[johny]

Now when we here had an catastrophic freeze about minus 35 Celsius really I used an long underpants, but as soon after 4 days freeze decreased at level of "just cold" - minus 15, and today to minus 2 Celsius - I cant see any reason to cook personal eggs out.
So, 360 days a year I vote for commando.
Nope, at least half of that time ought be spent clothesfree http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/happy.gif

[A. J.]

It depends on temperatures. I often go commando in the summer.

[Refoman]

Commando except under dress pants for a couple of hours on Sundays.

[NKID_D57]

Been going commando recently, but only when I am not working. I need to wear boxers for that.

[Rabid_Clam]

I wear briefs about half the time. But usually am naked wearing clothes only to shop and move about the city area and of course wear briefs about half the time.

[kphoger]

my name is kyle, and i've been commando for eleven months. i quit cold-turkey back in november, and haven't regretted it since then.

i grew up wearing tightie-whities, and never even wore a pair of boxer until college. however, i've never really liked either one.

if work in the heat, briefs get unpleasantly sweat-soaked. plus, if they get stretched out, my penis can slip through the leg hole and that is definitely not comfortable. plus, i have a hairy butt, and (ok, this may be a bit graphic for our younger viewers) wiping doesn't always do that great of a job. few feelings are less pleasant than having my underwear stuck to my butthole.

i'm skinny, too, so boxer shorts always ride up until i have about four inches of fabric above my pants. i gave up on them pretty fast.

so, i just decided to try commando and never went back. i used to drive a forklift, too, but it never bothered me. i go commando with slacks all the time, never had any problems. i do manual labor in jeans every day, and i'm comfortable. it just takes a little getting used to, that's all; zipping up takes practice if you're used to your penis being hugged tight to your body.

and, by the way, to whomever made the post about horses: early american cowboys wore tight-fitting pants with no underwear, because that was the most comfortable on a long trip.

STORY:
last christmas, i was only a month into going commando. we were at my wife's family's house, exchanging stocking-stuffers. they have a game where they wrap everyday or weird gifts in a way that throws you off, and you have to guess what's under the wrapping paper. underwear is a classic gift, because you can put it inside a TP tube or whatever. so, after we had opened the presents and added the points, they asked me if i liked boxers or briefs better (i presume so they would know what kind to buy for next year). i didn't want to answer "i don't wear any," for embarrassment's sake. so i said that, if i had to choose, i'd take briefs, but each kind has its downfalls; i explained that i liked the feel of boxers better, but they always ride up above my pants. hopefully, i confused them enough that they won't get me any underwear!

incidentally, i still own underwear. they're in the drawer. i don't know why i don't throw them out. maybe it's just that i have german blood in me, and i am therefore cursed with "rag mentality." don't throw that away, it would make a good rag!
