    It's 30 degrees already where I live. I can promise you that I don't wear my clothes in bed.

    Underwear and socks - daily, sometimes twice a day (would change if I was going out in an evening).

    Bras I get maybe 3 days out of, I rotate wear so it's hard to call.

    Tops, dresses & t-shirts - usually daily, occasionally a second day.

    Jeans, skirts and trousers - depends on the fabric but would usually get 2-3 wears out of them before a wash.

    I feel like I should sit back and wait to be called a dirty knacker now.

    I get jokes. :D

    Nah, sorry, I didn't get that one. That may be the fault of my brain this morning though. N'mind.

    Bar skirts, which I'll wear two or three times, everything else is changed daily.

    Always get two wears out of t-shirts, shirts etc, jeans/trousers would be much longer 7 days+ Of continuous wear. Underwear two days and socks everyday.

    I don't wear my jumpers much once here and once there so could get months between washes and jackets probably get washed (dry cleaned usually) once a year if ever.

    I throw my socks at the wall and if they don't stick to it, then they're clean enough to wear again. Likewise if my boxers don't stand up by themselves, they're going back on me.

    Yeah, we see where you got your user name.

    Maybe twice, if it looks and smells fine; I'd still blast it with Febreeze though, so it smells fresh.

    I'd never wear the same top two days running though. People will notice.

    Socks and jocks get worn once.
    T-shirts could be 2-3 days (in reality after the work clothes come off they're only getting worn for 4-5 hours max per day before sleepy time)
    Shirts once - could go a second day if I've been slacking on the wash loads, very rare though.
    Khakis/chinos get worn for the guts of a week - see T-shirts reasons above.
    Jeans/shorts/hoodies - when I spill something on them.

    How long is a 'wear'? I have to change anything up to a dozen times a day, between clean work and dirty work. So that's maybe six wears in one day right away.

    I wear my work clothes for a week as i do factory work and i would wear the boxer shorts for 2 days as they are not dirty, men do not secrete liquids on their underwear like women would do unless you are viewing pornographic material

    I would wear jeans for a month as i am not a pretty boy so i am not

    We do, even a few shakes after a piss won't stop all the dribble.

    You know balls sweat and there are droplets of urine left on your penis after peeing?

    So which is it?

    1. It's taken you over ten years to notch up 137 posts.
    2. You're so embarrassed/ashamed of your previous opinions that you've had to create a new account.
    3. You're too stupid to remember passwords and got locked out of Boards/your email. You should start a 'how to remember simple words?' thread.

    There is a fourth option: he may be a re-reg.

    .... but, no, come to think of it thats against the rules, so theres no re-regs here.

    Not if you wash your dick in the sink.
    Not that anybody does that.

    It's very embarrassing when you are in your local and somebody walks in.
    Try Peni pads. You might even be able to swim and ride horses.

    And the scores of people replying: I have to ask WHY?

    Sleep time; showers per day; pizza toppings; washing clothes.

    The banality is astonishing.
    Agreed I'm waiting for the "How long do you stare at your poop before you flush the toilet" thread next. The pits.

    no as i dry my shaft well with toilet paper, my scrotum wouldn't sweat too much but the area between my scrotum and thigh would sweat and that area doesn't touch my boxer shorts anyway

    Underwear-Every day. No excuses.
    Socks-Every day.
    Tights-Every day.
    T-shirt-Every day.
    Jumper-Might get 3 wears out of it if it doesn't smell or hasn't been stained.

    Dresses-3 wears, then I'd wash.

    A few drops of piss, who cares. Two days is perfectly acceptable for boxers.

    In other words nobody, if they buried their nose right against the fabric their might be a hint of a smell. In normal everyday contact, with jeans/trousers on and wearing deodorant not a chance.

    Unless you spray your penis with that deodorant, there's every chance.
