Let me assure you that no one twists my arm to say this, but I must say: I fell in love with my underwear. My family thinks I am crazy. My friends teased me. I just don’t care. Some people make a fuss about their BMW. Others are greedy foods from Hermes or Rolex. I am very passionate about my ExOfficios. My “front” and I am about to usher in our fifth anniversary, there are 22 countries to visit along the way, which makes this a perfect moment, can mention my ulterior (I promise to keep it, hey, short ).

First of all, I want to say that 2018 is a busy year for me. As I entered this message, I was returning an 11-hour flight from Chile, followed by summer missions in Europe, Asia, Canada, Wyoming, Massachusetts, Vermont, New York, Tennessee and the District of Columbia. Frankly, I am a little tired but my skiing is crisp and fresh, as the Pringle pops out of the jar.

You may know what underwear I am talking about. You may have seen “classic ads in 17 countries.” 6 weeks. A pair of underwear. “That’s it. Nylon, ultra-light mesh material is deodorant and stain-resistant and can be dried in two hours or less. It is also very powerful. The waist or leg holes (or worse) do not sag, hydrophobic The fiber causes the moisture surface to evaporate almost immediately. ExOfficio retails for about $20.

 

This may sound terrible, but we are all friends here: Have you ever been to a long-distance running or a soul cycle class, sitting back home on the couch, just to find a wet pool in the shape of your ass sitting? Yes, none of this will happen. Or, suppose you are traveling and try to clean the last pair of clean panties at the end of a long journey. For most other outfits, you basically walk around the whole day and feel the feeling. But again, ExOfficios does not happen.

I got my first pair when I traveled to the most remote Ethiopia in 2012. I am visiting the lost tribe in the Omo Valley, I know that I will not find a fluffy fold by the river. At that time, I started to practice. This has become a habit, especially when I travel, it is like this: wear, wash, twist, wait, wear.

In other words, you wear underwear all day, then wash it with soap and water. Give it a rinse (perhaps a quality control sniff) and then twist and wring the water. If there is a hand towel, it is even better. Wrap the underwear with a towel and twist it. This way you can smash the water into a towel for extra absorbency. From here you can choose: let the underwear hang dry (again, usually takes 2 hours) or let your 98.6 degree tuchas get the job done.

Full disclosure: I actually have two pairs of ExOfficios now, this is all the underwear I need. No, they are not sexy, so I have some other cotton briefs and boxers. Like other brands, I especially like Mack Weldon’s boxer briefs. But ExO is still the best choice for my daily life and distant life.

When I visited Japan last year, I walked a few miles a day and stopped in a series of traditional hot spring bathrooms. My underwear ceremony is perfect. I took off my clothes and put on a yukata robes, washed off the ExOfficios, and put them when I soaked them in the bathtub. When I finished, the panties were ready to swing again. I think it is the art of Zen and underwear maintenance.

ExOfficio launched the deodorant Give-N-Go “performance” underwear in 2000. They make men’s and women’s clothing for fancy prints and solids of all shapes and sizes. As for me, I will stick to my five-year-old pair and continue on the road.

For many people, the term “mesh underwear” is reminiscent of a series of very specific memories. For me, this is a hospital room in Lower Manhattan, and finally my baby is full of strength, exhaustion, exultation, anxiety. My body is very tender due to childbirth, I am afraid of using the bathroom. But I am wearing mesh underwear, they are a grace to save. If you are preparing for childbirth, you may want to know how many mesh underwear you need, let us say you can’t have too much.

For unfamiliar mesh underwear, it looks like boy shorts made of net, they are very comfortable. They are high-waisted, gently embracing your postpartum abdomen (because you still look pregnant for 5 months after giving birth), and they are specifically designed to hold those huge postpartum pads in place. Yes, there will be bleeding – you can use one of them to tell you something about childbirth. Fortunately, these magical mesh underwear are completely dazzling disposables. If you leak (and you will), you can simply peel them off and discard them without hesitation.

However, it should be noted that although these mesh underwear will feel like a gift for a post-natal fairy, this fairy is a bit awkward. Unlike the bottles and mats around me, I seem to be swimming in the hospital, and I got a mesh underwear throughout my hospital stay. Although that time was very vague, I didn’t think I was sent home. To be on the safe side and make sure you have enough of these comfortable disposable underwear when coming home from the hospital, it is a good idea to purchase extra. We all heal at different speeds, but you can at least expect you to experience at least 3-5 days a day for a few days.

You can find quite a few affordable options on Amazon, and many are included, so you can easily get 10 at a time. You can search for “Pregnant Women’s Mesh Underwear” or “Incontinence Underwear” because many are designed for both situations.

The cool thing is that these post-natal lingerie are starting to become more normal. This is partly due to Chrissy Teigen’s now infamous “Asian Pear” Instagram post, which is an Asian pear package while imitating mesh shorts, a metaphor from a compatriot mother, and a funny talk show comedian, Ali Wong knocked on her wife in her special Netflix show.

There is even a popular label on social media, “#meshundies”, the new mother put on hospital underwear, including actress Kristen Bell and her beloved husband Dax Shephard. Mesh underwear is a very real part of postpartum life, and I like it is now considered a badge of honor.

There is even a lively meme that says, “You will never forget the nurse who helped you put the ice bag in the mesh panties,” I don’t think there is anything more real.

A regional woman is doing everything possible to ensure that poor children in the region have the underwear and socks they need for the school year.

Jennifer Mullins, manager of the Office of Social Services in South East Oklahoma, started a lingerie and sock donation after seeing how many parents entered her office and could not pay for their children. According to Mullins, last year’s driving brought more than 300, and she hopes to surpass last year’s success this year.

“We have brought in 200 pairs of socks and underwear. I have given about 50 so far, and I hope to donate as much as possible before the September 15 deadline,” Mullins said.

“I started with elementary school, Edmond Doyle, Will Rogers and Emerson, but later grew to Parker and Puterbaugh Middle School,” Mullins added. “Then there was a truck going to Houston after the hurricane, so I gave them a bunch.”

Underwear and socks are as common for many people as toothbrushes, but according to Mullins, accepting these socks and underwear is as exciting for these kids as opening a gift on Christmas Day.

“My husband is very poor… socks and underwear are like Christmas gifts,” Mullins said. “Then your reaction is shocked… I am excited about this – how can parents not provide these necessities for their children?”

“But then you need humanity and think about how to make this situation better,” Mullins added.

Mullins also offered a proud attitude towards the citizens of McGrist and its surrounding areas to strengthen and promote this activity.

“The best thing about McAlester and the surrounding community (they) is to be ready and willing to give it,” Mullins said. “This is the benefit of being born and growing here, everyone is willing to help you.”

A few weeks ago, a friend posted a corset on Facebook that was trapped on a bus. Shapewear, for people who are unfamiliar, is also known as “control” underwear, or the brand name, Spanx, which is designed to absorb the belly, hips and thighs, depending on which type of corset you slide over your body. They are modern versions of corsets, also known as underwear, that may try to kill you.

This is a clumsy, lost post, and many of us who are used to social media will share the details of our lives and find some comfort in unity. What point did she receive, a little. She also received comments from people who didn’t know why she was wearing a corset first. Others severely instructed her to get rid of the shame of her body and embrace her curves.

It sounds like little trifles in the life of the first world, but they also show the daily patriarchy that women are constantly walking through every day. Small and trivial? Maybe until you see how false beauty standards affect income, self-esteem and mental health.

Studies have shown that people who think attractive people can get more income. For women, this is almost entirely to modify, in other words, if you make up, spend time on your hair and clothes, so you look even more With traditional appeal, you are more likely to be employed, you may get more, and you are more likely to get a promotion.

As women age and their perception of attractiveness declines, this has a subsequent impact. Although age discrimination has an impact on both men and women, it is a problem for women and is undeniably related to their appearance.

Of course, women’s weight is always judged. Even subtle weight gains can affect employers’ perceptions of potential job seekers, especially women.

As with all issues that are harmful to women, it has a greater impact on women of color. In this case, European beauty standards have a greater impact on their life trajectory. Women with significant disabilities can also be severely affected by wrong beauty standards, and women can choose a more beautiful concept if they only work hard.

If you do this, this is a classic curse. If you don’t have this situation damn, no matter how you choose your curse, you will blame the woman. Not done enough? You let yourself go, really, will you get a little lipstick and repair your hair? Doing too much? Why can’t you be a proper feminist and love yourself like you?

It’s easy to say that women shouldn’t worry about their appearance. They should be confident in what they do. Maybe it’s even true, but putting it in a public place like a TV is not that easy, and knowing that your social media feed will be full of your body, face, hair, skin before you take out the headphones. comment. And clothes. Even for women outside the public domain, comments on the appearance of strangers, partners, friends and colleagues are so constant that we almost forget to pay attention to it.

Women who recognize that false beauty standards are compromised and reject their demands are still struggling to get rid of the internalized self-hatred they impose. The strange thing is that other women’s reactions are a strange victim of blame. Why does she wear her own corset or botulinum toxin or high heels, waxing or tight clothing or a demanding and expensive makeup system? Why can’t she surpass the lessons she has imposed since her infancy and be strengthened in her daily interaction with the world? What’s up with her?

She has no problems. Everything is wrong, and the attitude of gender discrimination instills the belief that the value of women can be judged by her appearance and the impact of women’s self-esteem and economic security.

The writing about women and their behavior under patriarchy is very different from the way men write. Both suffer because of patriarchy, but women tend to turn their pains to the heart and punish themselves. Men are more likely to turn outwards and punish others.

After Rachel Hundley saw the link, her heart sank.

Hendry, a member of the City Council in a quiet, small city in Sonoma, California, worked from home on August 13th when a message from an unfamiliar address suddenly appeared in her inbox. What she read shocked her. This anonymous email accuses the 35-year-old Hendry of being “immoral and immoral.” She then advised her to withdraw from the reelection in November. She read this note several times before setting the reality of the threat. Then she clicked on the link.

The now banned website was called “Rachel Hundley Exposed” and attacked Hendry because she took a position on the disagreement of Mayor Sonoma. It includes photos from Hendry’s social media accounts, including those wearing bras and underwear, as well as the works of the famous art and music festival Burning Man. The site is said to be an organization called “Sonoma Citizens for Peace and Cooperation,” which calls Hundley a “cruel and demented person” who is a “cancer” that needs to be cut off from the community.

“I was shocked,” said Hendry. “Now is 2018. I thought we have surpassed this.”

Although American women who had never been in the 2018s campaigned for public office, harassment and defamation were still the personal lives of female candidates. But when the victims of these attacks, aimed at tarnishing reputation and derailing activities, are confronted with attackers, it can actually trigger anger, provoke voter support and raise the image of candidates, experts and candidates say.

The public’s response to these types of candidate attacks has changed over the years, especially after the #MeToo campaign, University of Virginia professor Jennifer Lawless said he spent years studying gender and politics. intersection. Studies have shown that women who fight back and call for such behavior tend to be rewarded. But the threat of harassment can still prevent women from escaping.

“I think it’s important to make these examples and make sure that female candidates or women on the political stage know they don’t have to suck and stay silent,” Lawless said.

Hendry communicated with consultants and close friends – many of whom advised her to ignore these threats. Instead, Hendry decided to solve the problem directly with YouTube videos, which was close to 14,000 views as of Monday afternoon. Among them, she called on “anonymous coward” to try to silence her, to silence her, and to threaten her in the broader context of harassment and hypocritical women facing politics. She said that the purpose of the site is to scare her. But she refused to be intimidated.

“I am here today to tell me the faceless bully, I can’t be ashamed of my shame,” Hendry said in the video, staring at the camera.

Most politicians deal with trolls and criticism, and in 2018, the platforms and methods of harassment are enormous. A survey conducted by the Inter-Parliamentary Union in 2016 on women in legislative bodies around the world found that more than 40% of respondents said that “images of extreme humiliation or sexual harassment” were widely distributed.

Recently, a woman in the photo unscrupulously crossed the city street of Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, wearing a bikini bottom and a long-sleeved shirt, which has spread the virus online, and even The Star was released in their print version this morning. A copy of this photo.

Just outside, near a restaurant near the Asian city complex, even the National Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister Christina Liew weighed the issue and welcomed everyone to see the state and appreciate it. It has all the natural beauty. They should pay attention to what they wear.

“You should understand cultural sensitivity…not walking in underwear,” she said in response to the photo.

She admits that although the guide can do its part to reaffirm what is acceptable, many of the guidelines are “pure common sense”.

In fact, we bet that if you don’t wear your bikini bottoms and walk by chance, it may be considered something beyond common sense, and may not even be worth mentioning.

Although we are here – how about some other tips: In addition, wear shoes! Don’t forget not to open your bowel movements!

After the photos spread, netizens were sultry under the collar. Some people asked if this was a new trend, while others wanted to know if Sabah was much hotter than any of us realized.

Earlier this year, two Chinese tourists were arrested and danced along the front of the city mosque. Both were fined RM25 (US$6.10) and were taken to Kota Kinabalu Airport to return home.

There is no news of whether this woman has received any warning or fine because of her rash behavior, but is it sure that publishing your photo in a national newspaper is enough to be punished?

Nina Dobrev showed off her amazing mid-section with social media and released her casual and sexy photos in white Calvin Klein lingerie.

In the black and white moment, the actress leaned on a bicycle holding her braided hair while looking at the camera with a serious, sexy look. Dobrev is working with this brand of women’s sports white boy shorts with a classic bra.

Her posts totaled nearly 900,000, with nearly 3,000 comments, proving that her fans like what they see.

“The hottest woman in the universe,” one user stressed all out. Another added, “Nina, you must have been so early in the morning so my God attacked me.”

On the other hand, some commentators believe that underwear is too childish for gorgeous Canadians.

“Nina, you are always beautiful, but the men are better dressed in Calvin Klein boxers. Some women should choose lace underwear and regular tailoring underwear,” wrote an Instagram user, although not everyone agree. Another fan said: “Only Nina can beat boxers better than men.”

Some fans also commented on her weight, claiming she looked thinner. One user said, “When she became thicc, I like her more.” Another user said in the comments, “She is never thick. But a few years ago she gained 10 pounds. All she has to do. Just raise it, but she may make herself hungry because she is thinner than before, and make her look old.”

A series of comments have been criticized for the physical humiliation of another group of fans.

Last year, the Vampire Diaries actress was announced as a spokesperson for Reebok x Les Mills partners. To celebrate this achievement, she hosted a one-day fitness and wellness event where she shared information about her workouts and diet options.

In order to maintain her enviable body, she trains with her personal trainer every day and follows Les Mills GRIT, a 30-minute high-intensity interval training designed to increase strength and build muscle.

According to Shape magazine, Dobrev focused on an intensive exercise program that made her feel thinner while eating more.

“In the past, I didn’t actually do a lot of [strength training] – I only did yoga and I was running in training. The weight training and the timetable so planned are new to my life, now I understand it. The way it works, the science behind it, it changed everything. I ate much more than before, and I think I am more streamlined and stronger than ever,” she told the publication.

TomboyX has just made another round of investment to create more gender-neutral underwear.

The Seattle startup participated in a $4.3 million Series A round of funding led by TAU, with Redbadge Pacific and SBI Investments Korea participating. So far, the total funding is $6.3 million.

Founded in 2013 by married founders Fran Dunaway and Naomi Gonzalez, TomboyX’s apparel products are aimed at “plus size, gender-qualified and professional businessmen.”

“TomboyX was created to address the lack of inclusiveness in the fashion world. Dunaway said in a press release that the products we create are powerful, high quality, and wearable.

TomboyX recently became one of the company’s fastest growing Seattle companies.

The Fast Company reported in June that consumers are looking for alternatives to brands such as Victoria’s Secret. “But in my reports over the past few years, I have also found that millennials do not pay special attention to brand concerns about open sexual behavior, which means that underwear is what you use to stimulate others,” Elizabeth Saiglan wrote. .

The company’s board of directors is 100% women, and 90% of its investors are women. Last year, less than 3% of venture capital funds flowed to the all-female entrepreneurial team.

In our long-running series “How Do I Make It,” we talk to people who make a living in the fashion and beauty industry about how they break into and succeed.

Commando and CEO Creo Bryan never really considered working on fashion design, let alone working in the underwear market. She studied business communication at Bentley College in Waltham, Massachusetts, internships with CNN and Senator George Mitchell, and eventually worked in financial public relations. Then, on September 11, 2001, it happened. The next day, O’Brien stepped out of her office and left her successful career as a vice president of financial public relations at Edelman.

“I did this at the time, because as part of my job, I read three or four newspapers a day. I was at CNBC all day, I just didn’t want to revisit September 11 again and again,” she explained. “When I look back and see it, the truth is that I was burned down. Now is the time for me to start a new chapter. It just allows me permission. If you are good at something, it does not mean that you are not on other things. It will do very well. Sometimes people just stay on the road they are on because it is working for them, they are afraid that if they do other things, they may not succeed.”

O’Brien moved back to Vermont to regroup. She always felt that something was missing from the underwear market, and she began to think she could fill the gap in the women’s underwear drawer. A few years later, the commando team was born.

Today, the commando team sells not only seamless underwear, but also sports tights and comfortable fashion stretch pants. It has also become one of the most popular lingerie brands in the fashion industry, appearing on the red carpet and the runway season after season. O’Brien chats with us about how she turns the commando into the current powerhouse. Why is the underwear world completely different from what she started with, and why chapters in life are essential.

When I grow up, I always feel that I can do whatever I want to do and do what I want to do. I am a young, energetic woman; I am an athlete, but I am also a fashionista. I am the captain of the basketball team and the football team. When you go to the competition, one of the things you have to do is to put on clothes. I always wear a purple water pump and a crazy yellow skirt, or very much for me. Interesting things. I always hope that there is something that I think is unique to me. I used fashion as a way of expression at the beginning.

The other thing I thought of was: After September 11th, we had to leave our apartment, what do you do, what do you take? Most people take pictures; I didn’t have children at the time, so I grabbed my Prada techno pants and ran out the door. When you like, you know that you like fashion, “Hey, my God, what can I not have? My Prada pants!”

A driver in jeans sneaked into the room through a series of underwear, killing the habit of wearing women’s clothing.

A court heard that Craig Brydon broke into several houses to steal clothes while he was driving HGV.

A shocked woman who was pregnant at the time found the 38-year-old father crawling on the floor of her bedroom.

Another victim was uneasy after stealing the wig she used to treat cancer.

When Braden was finally brought to justice because of the intrusion of Northumberland, Judge Edward Binderlos spoke of the fear of the victim and the invader face to face.

At the Newcastle Royal Court decision, the judge said: “You are wearing women’s underwear and driving around the country on your truck. You are a long-distance truck driver.

“You are fully qualified to do this. What you have no right to do is steal people’s homes and buy the items you need.

“The theft was committed at night and the victim was at home.

“A woman, sleeping alone and pregnant, seeing you climb to the floor of the bedroom.

“She was frightened by the confrontation and has been nervous and nervous since then. This has had a major impact on her.

“In one case, the complainant had had cancer in the past, and her wig was one of them, indeed a personal item.”

In 2016, three invasions took place in Wooler, Northumberland.

After Braden was identified as the culprit, a man slept in the home of South Road, Wooler, woke up and found him in the living room.

Although Braden fled the man while chasing him from home, the truck driver left a pair of women’s shoes outside the hotel.

Brydon’s DNA was found on the shoes, and when his home was searched, the property was found in the homes of Souther and Fenton Grange, Wooler.

One of the Fenton Grange homes is where pregnant women live, and the other is where women’s wigs are stolen.

In an interview with the police, Brendan claimed that he purchased items from the charity store and skipped.

But his work record shows that they have spent the night in Wooler, two of whom were disturbed in their home.

Defending Tariq Kawam said: “This is a difficult case involving a lot of emotions, especially for the victims.

“He has great remorse and wants to apologize.

“If allowed, he will write a letter to them because he understands how it affects them.”

The court heard that Brydon was a hardworking family man with a wife and children who lived an “alleged life.”

The court was told that he left the track in 2016 after his mother died and the marriage failed.
