Okay I saw these and worried they would look like granny panties. I think they do, but my boyfriend says they aren't that bad. However, these are the most comfortable panties I have ever owned. I don't care how they look, Im comfortable. And now I don't want to wear any other kind. I didn't believe the reviews either. But they're pretty great. I ordered an XL, which is what I usually wear and I felt these were slightly too big. Not sure Id go down to a L though.
