Hanky Panky Underwear - 5 Tips to Help You Decide When It's Time to Throw Out Your Old Underwear

Like that favorite robe that you don't want to part with, rummaging through your panty drawer at least once or twice a year is necessary to toss out those panties that aren't worth keeping anymore.

Here are five tips for determining whether to keep or toss your favorite underpants.

1. If your current panty wardrobe contains undergarments with stretched out legs or waistbands, then you know you can't wear them, so toss them out.

2. If the seams on your panties are frayed, then get rid of those panties.

3. If you own panties that ride up and are uncomfortable to wear, toss them out.

4. If your panties were accidently tossed into the dryer and they shrunk, then why do you keep them? It's time to get rid of them.

5. If your panties are two sizes too small, and you've kept them because you thought you'd lose weight one day, bite the bullet and toss them out. Most likely the styles, colors, or designs are out-of-date, too.

Who knows why women keep panties that they don't wear, yet the truth is that at least twice a year, you would do yourself a favor if you went through your panty wardrobe and tossed out everything that didn't fit or was faded or frayed.

Yes, Hanky Panky underwear, although very comfortable to wear, does have a wearability factor to consider. Just like your favorite robe, sweater, shirt, or sweatpants, sometimes you just have to acknowledge that it's falling apart and needs to make friends with the dumpster.

Underwear, whether a designer brand or a no-name brand, has to fit comfortably, or you will feel miserable wearing it for at least eight hours a day. If your panties ride up, or leave gouges on your thighs or hips due to their tightness now that you've gained a little weight, it's normal to keep them for three to four months if they're still in good condition. However, it they don't fit properly, or the design is from ten years ago, you might want to get rid of them.

Perhaps someone in your family or a past lover gave you a pair of panties as a special gift, and you haven't had the heart to part with those panties...ask yourself why you're holding onto them. If the sentimental value is long gone, then maybe it's time to toss those memorable panties into the trash, especially if you don't wear them anymore.
