The Panty Gift Dilemma-Should You Ever Ask Your Man for Panties for Christmas?

As those Christmas lists are being penned – or at least mentally drafted and subtly slipped into conversation – it’s time to take another look at this classic Christmas dilemma. A sexy little move to add some spice and intimacy to your Christmas, or a cringe-worthy disaster of a Christmas gift idea? It’s your man and your booty, so you decide – but take a look at these factors first!

There are a few persuasive points that could make this seem like a good idea. After all, you want him to think you look hot in your underwear, right? And what better way to bring that about than have him choose you some panties he likes? His taste in panties + your body = images he’ll remember for years to come. You should also get some lovely free panties into the bargain, and a sexy little secret to share with your man.

But if it’s known as a dilemma, there has to be a catch. So what is it? Well, that depends on your guy. There are a couple of common problems out there that can turn this fun Christmas gift idea into a real cold turkey, though, and most guys are hit by one or other of them!

One thing you might not have considered, for example, is whether he actually has the know-how to choose something he’ll like! You’d think it was straightforward, but just consider it a moment. How is he to know that those flattering panties were French cut and not a tanga thong? Or that those colours – hot as they might be in his head – actually really wash you out? All the stuff you’ve learned with years of women’s-underwear-buying, he only has the vaguest idea of. You should wish him luck, because he’ll need it!

The other problem could be a real clash of his taste and yours. Especially if you’ve not been seeing each other for all that long, your normally tasteful-luxury-lace-clad booty could be in for an unenviable run-in with a leopard print g-string – so watch out! If you give him free rein, then be warned, because you might not like what he does with it. Then there’s also the question of size. How do you tell him? Do you tell him? Do you want him to know a number? It’s certainly worse to say nothing and end up with a pair of panties several sizes too large or small! If this is going to be awkward for you, it’s a sure sign this gift idea is no good.

So, it takes a certain type of couple to go for it, that much we can see. It needs a certain amount of realistic thinking too, or you could well be disappointed! On the other hand, if you don’t think you’ll find it awkward, and – if the worst comes to the worst – you’ll both be able to laugh off a horrific choice, then you’ve not got much to lose. Just tread carefully if you’re going to go for it. It’s a minefield out there!
