    I'm going to Fla in Nov. I'll be staying with family & sleeping on the couch. I hate to do it but I'm going to have to buy some mens underclothes since I don't own any. Well one pair for when I go to the doctor, but can't wear them for a week.
    But my pants & tops are also all womens. Should I buy some mens clothes?

    Hi Karen,

    Are your relatives likely to notice which direction things button, snap or zip on? Most people don't notice so I often wear things like women's oxford shirts and jeans when in male mode.

    Best,

    Karen,

    I have some T shirts that do double duty. Just chose your colors wisely. you can wash your underwear out in sink and let it dry overnight. Sleep in a pair of shorts. remember it can be 80 at 2 a.m. in FL this time of year, with humidity that makes it feel 5 degrees hotter. Consider silk or microfiber. Think hot.

    You do not need to. unless you are going to run around in your underclothes

    Who's going to see your knickers Karen? I wouldn't bother buying any men's underwear if I were you.

    Karen if you're sleeping on the couch dressed the way you are in you're avatar I think they're probably going to get the message!
