I had one experience that I will never forget. Years ago, I was buying lots of panties in person at retail shops. On one occasion when I was shopping alone at Victoria’s Secret, the cashier held them up and said, “These are nice and stretchy,” with a huge grin on her face. I knew what she was implying and brushed it off with some comment about how much my wife likes them that way. I didn’t detect any snotty tone but I didn’t appreciate her announcement in front of everyone at checkout. Fortunately for me, my wife was usually with me when I would shop for panties and would carry my choices through checkout to avoid such situations.
