Latest trend - dress without panties in public and show it

Remember the good old days when women actually wore bras and panties and did whatever they could to avoid giving any hints to others about their underwear. The word "underwear" meant items of clothing that you wore under your garments and only you (or a special someone) got to see it.

Then came those tank tops which either forced you to dress without a bra or the bra was there for all to see. A new fashion trend emerged so that bra straps were designed to be shown and a bra was part of a an "outfit."

We all got used to it until the low-rise pants came along. They brought along another trend: show your thongs or panties and fashion experts coined a new term for it - whale tail.

So during last few years we reached a point that a woman's bra and panties were no longer an intimate apparel. When you saw her, you knew exactly what she was wearing inside. For many of us it even robbed us off of that excitement you feel when you are with a woman and she takes her clothes off revealing her lingerie.

Now a new trend is taking birth: dressing without panties and letting the world see it all. Credit definitely goes to women like Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, and Britney Spears. And while it is raising eyebrows right now, you wouldn't have to wait too long before you see it at a mall near you. In case, you don't want to, here are tips on how not to show your panties while wearing a short dress.

And it is not just women - men too have followed the trend, though not as aggressively. It is just that not many women want to see men in their ugly boxers. Thongs and G-strings are another story, though.
