    Bikini = outdoors,

    bra and knickers = in the club.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,005 ✭✭✭MistyCheese


    You wear one under your clothes and one to go swimming.

    What do I win?

    What are you talking about? It's been a while since I've seen a man walking down O'Connell Street in his underpants too you know.

    If a father walked in on his daughter in her bra and knickers she would be very embarrassed but she would have no problem with him and every other man around seeing her in a bikini at the beach i dont get that

    Yes but allah spelt backwards is halla.

    There was no point there, in case anyone is wondering.

    You could use it to be cool with gangstas? Islam ganstas?

    Tell your bird to stop being so prudish and get them off.
    If you can't find a condom try some cling film or tinfoil if you want to be extra safe.

    I'd stroll O'Connell Street in my finest CK boxers if there was something in it for charity!

    A more appropriate question:

    "G-String and No knickers; What's the differnence?"

    A bikini always matches. Bra and knickers possibly not. Oh The Shame!!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,659 ✭✭✭Chaotic_Forces


    I suppose generally speaking panties and a bra is somewhat more private.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭PeterIanStaker


    on a sort of related tangent, why do some porn stars have tan lines? Are they shy about getting everything out at the tanning salon or beach, even though its online for all to see?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,720 ✭✭✭Sid_Justice


    Bra and knickers were not bought, worn, on put on that morning with the intention of bearing to the world (most of the time). A woman who has bought a bikini has bought it with the intention of wearing outdoors in public and as such has insured it's properly fitting.

    same difference. when they're strewn on the floor, in a crumpled heap. unnecessary excess packaging

    Its all a matter of material , context and lace.

    Bikinis are normally only worn on a hot summers day , on the beach, and made from water resistant material.

    Bras and knickers are made from cotton or silk and trimmings of lace..
    Normally only seen in the privacy of the bedroom

    Just imagine a fine looking woman , walking up the beach , soaking wet in her damp , lacy ,cotton bra and knickers after having a long swim in cold water...

    Wrong material, wrong place.
    Much different with bathing material engineered to do the job.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 299 ✭✭Metallergy


    woman are like chupa chups. you gotta get the wrapper off to..

    no, wait. women's underwear is like chupa chup wrappers

    True and most wimmin get the lady garden trimmed before heading out in the bikini, where as the look like they shoved a badger down the front of the Alan Wickers when they are at home.

    Because many porn stars are from America where it's actually illegal to go topless in public.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,381 ✭✭✭fakearms123


    Jesus people its not that hard!! We live in a cold country so we don't see women wearing either in public because women usually have at least sixteen layers of clothing on, sure I know a few lads who almost get off on seeing the top elastic of a girls underwear! Now in hot countries the difference between wearing a bikini instead is because of the material, you would hardly going for a swim in your bra and knickers because they would become clingy and almost transparent. Same for lads, if we were going for a dip in the sea and it was a little chilly out would you pick the cool billabong shorts or tight white see-through boxers where your penis will look like a cocktail sausage caught in a fishing net! It is also to do with the colours, bikinis are very colourful and attractive in public while the plain colours and texture of bra and knickers are more suited under clothing! Jesus Christ some of you here a stupid!

    Worth bearing in mind also that some girls who don't ant to be seen in their undies, would also not let themselves be seen in a bikini...
