Going commando gives a sense of freedom like no other... :-)

Although there are times and places for panties... I'm not about to visit my man's great-grandfather without panties on... there are lines...

On the other hand, the breeze is wonderful :-)

That's actually backward
Unless you're wearing breathable cotton undies, wearing panties is MUCH less healthy than going commando.
Not only does it promote yeast infections & increase feminine odor, but the rubbing of the panties makes ingrown hairs MUCH more likely.

I used to hand out a small modeling preparation information sheet to local girls that I asked to model for me but have stopped it with the "experienced" site models since I have started using the Internet, thinking they know better and not wanting to insult their professionalism. It includes information on not wearing a bra, panty, belt, Bikini, anything elastic, etc. that would leave pressure marks on the skin. So, as a result, I have had a couple of models come and display nice red pressure marks from a thong or bra. Each time, I had to reorganize my shooting plan to take the first pictures with them having a sash or other prop or shoot body parts until the pressure marks were less noticeable. One more incident, and I am ready to start sending them my prep info and take my chances on them being insulted.

Yep...at my last shoot, the newbie showed up despite explicit instructions to the contrary having worn a tight bra for the 2 hour drive to the shoot, and the first set was supposed to be in a backless dress *sigh*

I always go to a shoot "commando".  But, then again, I go everywhere that way.

I think the plan would be tell the newbies ...and expect that if there are nudes in a persons port they already know.... if an experienced nude model shows up all railroad tracked.... well then you can b**&^%  at them .

I've noticed that a lot more models routinely go "commando" these days.  Is this true for females in general or are models more apt to skip the undies in everyday life?

Don't ask how or why this has ever come up on conversation--it just has, all right?

At least half the women i know under the age of 35 go commando at all times. Of course this is LA and many of these women are nude models in addition to their day jobs. More than a couple claim to only own undies for use as props.

make the photographer spend extra time photoshopping your images when you pose nude.

or even with tight clothing on.

If you can avoide those lines and make a job easer why not.

See, even going casual, I'm extra picky about what pair of pants I wear, just to prevent lines from showing.

You'd think she would've listened when I told her AND sent her the document on top of it
Oh well, lines're easier to fix than one of my other pet peeves...sloppy fingernails in bad colors with chips, peels, and scratches in it *sigh*

Damn.

Can you get any more perfect? Be glad you live so far away. I'd have to get a stalker permit.

(are they cheap there? California stalker permits are so expensive; they're all specialized....)

I sure do enjoy a good breeze. =o)

99 percent commando for me.  Unless I'm wearing a short short skirt.  I just find it more comfortable.  I don't have to worry about my panty waistband being seen by everyone, or looking like I have four ass cheeks or perpetual wedgies.

I totally agree with Kassandra.  I love me some pretty panties and bras, but they have their place and their intended audience.

I only go commando when i wear sheer clothing but i usually wear boy briefs. And I wear boxers or just go plain nude around the home; it's better hygienically.

A lot of the girls down at the local YMCA gym like to go commando to their workouts.  I've had to come home and reach for the visine many times after a workout.

I don't think these young ladies realize tha the combination of short legged baggy gym shorts, exercise machine body positions and no panties can be very revealing..................or maybe they do realize. :-)

i go back and forth... depends on the day and the outfit i guess. although i realized that i generally don't wear undies to shoots. dont know why, i mean i will BRING underwear in case i need it, but depending on the type of shoot or outfit or whatever, i think that sometimes its just easier to not wear anything at all. anyway i usually wear thongs and once you take those off, they are so small they might just get lost haha

Most of the models I shoot, do wear panties to the shoot. They only go without if panty lines are a problem. Most wear thongs or g strings so in most cases I never see lines.

Well if its a nude model then we tend to skip the undies so there aren't any lines to photoshop out. Just trying to do you guys a favor.

I never went commando until I started modeling. On my first tfp shoot, we were going to do some lingerie and Bathing suit work, and I was instructed to not wear panties or a bra b/c of lines. AFter that I just kinda quit wearing them. I'm one the girls who only wears them when I want them to be seen. Usually tiny little thongs, but I have a few cute pairs that are full backed for wearing with short skirts. I figure that way, if I fall on my butt, or accidentally hike the skirt up, at least I have cute underwear underneath.
