Committed: The Ties that Bond
with Angella Dykstra
I'm a mom of three, a professional accountant, and an amateur photographer and writer. I am not a marriage expert. But my husband and I take "Til death do us part" seriously, and here I'll be sharing how we keep our marriage strong while we both do that insane work-life juggle.

Our very own Susan Wagner has written two posts about underwear: ‘Is your underwear sexy, or practical?‘ and ‘The underwear conundrum, take two.” I’ve enjoyed reading the comments because while I have been wearing thongs since my early twenties (TMI?). I don’t like the VPL (visual panty line) and thongs have freed me of my fear of someone looking at my rear end and gasping in horror not because of its size, but because of that tell-tale line.
I don’t wear thongs when at home/working out/sleeping for obvious reasons. “Bum underwear” — a term my husband and I coined back when we began — is far more comfortable for lounging/running/sleeping. This past August, while in San Diego for BlogHer, I stocked up on a bunch of new “bum underwear.” Upon seeing me model them at home, my husband was pretty excited about them. I can see why: They cover my cheeks which means there is no cellulite to be seen, and I think that the whole, “what’s under there?” allure comes into play.
He is fan of the “bum underwear”, is what I’m saying.
What kind of underwear does your spouse love on you? What is your favorite?

Me, I’m a thong girl - g-strings, even. I wear them for everything (cue lounging and working out). Even my kids know I wear them - my daughter asks why I want to wear underwear that gives me a wedgie (lol!) and my 9 YO son has been known to subtly pull down my top when my low-rise jeans are riding too low, and I’m flashing my back-end to the playground (he’s such a gentleman…).
Husband doesn’t seem to have much of a preference what I wear for undergarments though. He’s just not a lingerie-kinda-guy, I don’t think.

I can’t say I’m a huge fan of the thong, but the no panty lines thing is a good reason to wear them.
As for what hubby thinks, he doesn’t seem to have an opinion. Well, at least he hasn’t said anything. I’ll stick with my comfy bum underwear.

I’m a regular thong girl, but wear the bum underwear on occasion. I am that woman that quietly gasps as VPL.
The hubby likes the look of lace and the feel of satin, but would prefer nothing at all. He doesn’t have a preference, but loves when I match the top to the bottom.

I wear thongs almost exclusively but will wear ‘bum underwear’ on occasion. I think the fiance would prefer no underwear but does always say how cute I look in ‘bum underwear’.
