Guess who’s bringing the granny panty back in vogue?
(buying via the affiliate links may result in Marcy and Penelope Kitten getting more treats)
Cynthia: Millennial Girls are bringing back the granny panty, Marcy!
Marcy: Bringing them back? They’ve been on your butt ever since I’ve known you.
Cynthia: Yes, but now they are considered trendy… and even a little… sexy.
Marcy: Yeah right. In your dreams. Did you ask Freddy about that?
Cynthia: As a matter of fact, I did.
Marcy: And?
Cynthia: Well, I had to explain that the trend is more of a full bottom look and not what one would consider a true granny panty.
Marcy: And? Did he buy it?
Cynthia: No.
Marcy: Yeah. Guys like thongs and string bikinis.
Cynthia (suddenly angry): Yeah? Well, so what! Who finally cares?!
Thongs are uncomfortable. And horrible. And they make me grumpy. And I have had the fashion elite and that nebulous thing called culture telling me since 1985 that thongs are in and I am a complete nerd if I don’t wear the nasty things and now Millennial Girls are saying that granny panties are “in” because they are smart and don’t buy into you have to look like a stripper under your clothes and be uncomfortable to feel sexy!
Cynthia pauses to catch her breath.
Cynthia: I am much happier in granny panties.
Marcy: And friendlier.
Cynthia: Exactly. What do you think, Penelope?
penelope kitten: totes TMI.

Yay granny panties!!! I’ve always thought they were cute and of course you can’t beat the comfort. As I told a young lady a few years ago in defense of GPs, it’s confidence that’s sexy. If you’re confident the partner you’re after won’t care what type of underwear you’re wearing.
Yes!

I think the granny panties are meant to be a birth control option, but as a marginalized sexagenarian I’m always thrilled when the habits of my people become mainstream.
Well – blue hair is now in style too! Those young’uns!

Is that your ballet butt???
Lookin’ fine, my friend…
I’m a boyshorts kinda gal, myself, but for the same reason – COMFORT.
(I’m so short waisted that the granny panties come up too high to feel good.)
I think you just get to a point in life where it’s no longer cool or interesting to do the whole “beauty is pain” thing. Which is WAY sexier than the “put on” version, ya know? 🙂
Also: cute strawberry panties!
Aaaackkkk – not me not me not me! LOL
I will make the disclaimer at the bottom of the post way bigger. lolololol

Wow, Cynthia! Your picture taking has really….changed. LOL At first I thought that was you and I was thinking “wow…she’s got guts!” Very funny 🙂 I’m a boy-shorts-girl and def prefer them to thongs.
Boy shorts are awesome too! I wear those as well.
So now I am definitely going back to make my disclaimer bigger. I WISH I had that butt. I bet it’s photoshopped though.

Do granny panties come in black lace?
marcy says no.
xo and meow, marcy + cynthia
Never realized that GPs ever went out of style. Floss is for teeth.
And yep, I too was wondering about the pic, before I saw the disclaimer!
At this point I want to pretend that perfect bum is mine! hee hee hee.

I had to laugh when I saw this post’s title and the photo. Awesome!
I guess I am the lone thong wearer in the group though…. *slinks away*
LOL!!! Anyway – I am hoping that the moral of the story is – “to each her own”!!

Haha! I usually wear hipster panties, and maybe they’re considered granny panties, too, but I don’t care. Recently I bought a pair of high-waisted panties, and I actually really like them! I wear my skirts high on my waist, and I recently discovered the magic of high-waisted jeans, so I’m guess I’m going high-waisted all the way now! I wore thongs all through high school for the same reasons you listed. Now I have one thong that I wear with my sheerest skirts, and I do so begrudgingly.

Oh I so agree – high waisted jeans are magical. And a skirt that sits at the waist is super cute too. Those are my faves – I just feel so girly in them!

Could it be the Mother Ship has arrived and I have found my people, that I no longer must walk alone is silence admiring and enjoying my high waisted jeans, that one must not feel part of the Moms jeans horror set, actually are seen as dare I say…stylish?!?! I come forth from the shadows, no longer pulling shirts over the waist of my jeans with shame– I have found my people!!
Welcome!!
And yes – Mom jeans are now IN! So say the 20 somethings. And you know they like know eeeeeverything! Totes adorbs!
