Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's still so obvious, though. Unless your flesh tone is the flesh tone, the lucky dog.

Well, yeah, but you've got to do what you can. Assuming you insist on wearing gauzy white bottoms. And I've seen a range of skin-colored underpants, too -- it's not like Band-Aids.

Edit:

I have a pair of white, denim sailor pants. But they are very heavy and non-see-throughy. I still only wear white panties with them. When I wear them at all. They're not very practical.

Ditto. Although I have been know to wear pale pale pink panties under my white pants, too.

Thrive to spite them

The worst (which thank god I've only seen once) is wearing those boy shorts with words across the ass "Juicy", etc under the guazy skirts.

What is even happening?

If you are a white skinned person, pale pink or the very light beige panties are the colors you wear under the non-opaque white pants and skirts.

Never white. Do you hear me, girls? Never white. You might as well wear green panties.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

you mean the pants, right. I know people like to share and all, but...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I spent years trying to find something that matched my skin tone. So I say "fuck it" and wear white bras under not-properly-opaque white stuff (which is just about all white shirts, sadly). It makes me wonder, though, why I can't just wear purple -- I guess it's just code for "I know I failed, but I TRIED, dammit."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Never white. Do you hear me, girls? Never white. You might as well wear green panties.

But why not? If they match the skirt/pants, what's the problem?

At least you're wearing all white, even if it's obviously two layers. Is how I see it.

God DAMN people, make me do my work!!

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

t feels residual remnants of embarrassment for the day, some five years ago, when I discovered that a certain pair of khakis that seemed sufficiently opaque to wear any ol' color of underwear based on the perfectly bright lighting in our bathroom somehow turned all see-through under the lighting at work.

No one said anything, and I pretty much hid in the office all day after I noticed. But I still blush thinking about it.

Oh, where see-through-ish shirts are concerned, you'll just go crazy trying to find a bra that doesn't show through. I don't care what color a woman's skin is, where the top is concerned. There is no matching. White bras are completely acceptable under white shirts.

But under pants? No.

But you can match panties? What's the difference?
