My mom will not stop saying the word panties!

[Anonymous]

Ugh, my mom is so sweet and made my baby some dresses win the little diaper covers. She will not stop talking about them and calling them panties.

I think those panties with the blue dress fit now. I took the panties for the pink dress home to adjust the size. The green panties go with the yellow dress.

First of all they aren't even panties!! She is a baby who wears a diaper, they are closer to shorts. Babies don't even wear panties!! The word skeeves me out so bad.

Vent over.

Panties is just a word. Relax.

Lol!

How do you feel about "moist", op? Don't start a conversation about brownies with your mom!!

I use the word panties. Nothing wrong with it, except that your mom should be talking about diaper covers. But she made three dresses for your. Child, so let it go.

I also hate the word 'panties', but for the record, those are panties.

Why don't you start calling them diaper covers relentlessly and see if she follows suit.

I would tear my hair out if my mother did this.

The word panties skeeves me out a little bit, but most definitely skeeves me out when talking about a child. I understand your vent, OP. And for the poster who asked about the word "moist," I hate that word!

Omg- I hate the word panties and moist!

Why does the word bother some people? Is it b/c it seems sexual or is it the sound of the word?

'Panties' skeeves me out too. It's way worse than 'moist' in my opinion.

Intersection of hyper feminine and pervy.

I call them bloomers!

Maybe both? Definitely the sound though. I have no problem talking about sexy underwear (if the context warrants talk of sexy underwear), but panties sounds gross. For some reason it also has a... maybe almost creepy pedo-y connotation to me. The term just grosses me out I think in more ways than one.

Bloomers, they are bloomers.

This is actually what they're called. Give her this word to use, OP.
