Why Do People Buy Used Panties?

Why Do People Buy Used Panties?

Supposedly, nearly everyone has some sort of fet**h. The main difference between them is in how they are perceived, both by the people with those kinks and the public at large. One particular fet**h that has been raising eyebrows for a while now, revolves around worn underwear. As a result, many have asked themselves the t*tular question: Why do people buy used panties?

To answer it, we’ll first need to take a look at the bigger picture. Society is gradually becoming accepting when it comes to exploring one's s**uality, as long as doing is safe and legal. So, it's a perfect time for those who’ve kept their pa**ions bottled up to pop the cork and enjoy themselves, as some fet**hes are even entering the mainstream.

For instance, Netflix’s Orange is the New Black — specifically the part where the main character starts selling prison panties and makes bank doing it — has brought a lot of attention to the used panties fet**h. Combine that with media coverage from major sites such as VICE and the New York Post, and it’s clear that it is a growing trend.

Also, this isn’t a localized fad. Like many other kinks, it originates from Japan — the proverbial Eden of fet**hes. The legend says that back in the day, they had vending machines specifically for used underwear.

But even if these machines were still around, why would anyone use them? Worn panties are like fruit and veggies — they’re best when fresh! And the freshest pairs are over at Kinkie — the greatest marketplace for second-hand wearables and s** toys.

More people are aware of this naughty practice than ever before, and the market is thriving. As a consequence, many have asked themselves: Why do people buy used panties?

Science of Sniffing Panties

Believe it or not, scientists have probably spent less time trying to solve the Why do people buy used panties? mystery than you did. However, certain studies have still provided us with some interesting, pheromone-related insights.

Namely, pheromones’ role in the animal kingdom (or should we say kinkdom?) is to act as a signal flare and advertise one’s fertility and s**ual availability to other members of the species. In other words, they’re tailor-made to get someone all hot and bothered.

The function (and in some cases, the existence) of Jacobson's, or the vomeronasal organ — the one that senses pheromones — is still a subject of controversy, but there is little doubt that the VNO is present in humans.

And even though humans don’t have a specialized organ for pheromone secretion like many other animals do, pheromones have been found in almost all human bodily fluids — including those that soil and smell up panties.

Thus, it’s safe to make a couple of a**umptions:

  1. Humans can secrete and sense pheromones;
  2. Pheromones work pretty much the same for us as for other species.

Furthermore, pheromones are especially potent when they come from someone we already find attractive due to their looks or a close connection.

This is why used panty sellers often go out of their way to provide pictures of themselves wearing the goods, and are often even willing to do a bit of s**ting. That way, they make the connection with potential buyers that much more intimate and arousing. And in the dirty underwear business, a horny customer is a happy (and much more importantly, a returning) customer.

So, have we cracked the code? The answer to the question, Why do people buy used panties is the fact that they contain pheromones, right? Well, yes, but that’s not the whole story. There’s also…

The Culture of Dirty Knickers

Although the smell is probably the first thing that comes to mind when one asks themselves why do people buy used panties, the full answer is probably even more complex. In fact, many find the whole, ahem, dirty business degrading or humiliating — but in a good way.

Namely, a huge number of people are into humiliation and degradation, and who can blame them? The pressures and rigidity of modern life are more than enough for anyone to say "f**k it" and go be as filthy as possible — at least for a handful of minutes each day — to get relief.

Some find their nirvana through the sweet and sour aroma that only a worn pair of undies can give. And the very idea of being “forced” to smell a pair of soiled panties.

Well, that’ll shoot b***d toward their crotch faster than any modern medicine.

So, it really shouldn’t surprise anyone that people who are into femdom and its sister genres often have this fet**h. As the saying goes, one woman’s used undie is another man’s useful aphrodisiac.

Another angle that people shouldn’t overlook is the fact that for many, used underwear was first contact with human s**uality. Given how difficult pornography (and even the real deal) is to get when one is young, developing a taste for fragrant undies is pretty easy. After all, fet**hes and kinks tend to set in during formative years, and this angle is consistent with that.

Why Buy Dirty Panties?

Up until now, we’ve tackled the why, now let’s explain the buy. Why do people buy used panties?

Sure, they’re doing it because it arouses them, one way or another. But why spend money when there are more, let’s say, creative and exciting ways of acquisition?

The answer is pretty simple, but twofold. The first and more obvious explanation is that buying used underwear is the simplest, safest, and most ethical way to indulge in the fet**h. That goes double for those who don’t have a partner, or whose partner isn’t willing to turn their wet dreams. No one wants to be like this person.

The other explanation goes deeper into the psychology of degradation — in a sense that paying is part of the experience. Simply, the only thing more humiliating than sniffing dirty underwear is paying for the very privilege of doing so.
