Do you purchase your lingerie to ornament your body (and probably not to stay on for long?) or to wear for an extended period?

Do you wear it for yourself, or for your partner?

Do you sleep in sexy lingerie or something comfy but unsexy?

I want to find more lingerie that looks good but is comfortable enough to sleep in. It's so hard to find though!

I typically want something I'll wear for some amount of time, that's comfy enough that it doesn't matter if I sleep in it and I wear it for both of us, but mostly me because I like to look cute, and I'm a bit narcissistic at times.

I prefer sleepwear in general because it's more comfortable then me. My family makes fun of me for it, but when I'm home for a long period of time I'm always in a nightgown (unless it's, like, Christmas dinner and the such). So yeah, comfort is a definite priority.

I don't have any lingerie because my husband thinks I look better without it.

I want some but only for myself.

I sleep in whatever is comfortable.

I like my lingerie to be versatile, sexy and comfy. I don't usually sleep in it though. Typically I wear lingerie for myself but I'll put it on to entice my partner too.

I think that comfort is my #1 goal. If I am not comfortable in it.. then I dont feel very confident in it.

My sexy lingerie is generally for sex or masturbation. I like to sleep in a cotton chemise or nude.

I tend to have to types of lingerie - lingerie that just needs to be comfortable, and lingerie that needs to look a certain way.

I purchase some lingerie with the purpose of keeping it on for a while, mostly for my own happiness, although it's not normally the most comfy thing I own. Some of it won't really work under clothes for one reason or another, but is too hot not to buy anyway, so I guess I own a balance. Sleeping is non-negotiable though. I sleep naked.

My purpose it to find something sexy most of the time, but occasionally I want something comfortable. I wear lingerie to feel sexy for myself which in turn is sexy for my partner.

i wear it for a short amount of time, so no need to be comfy i wear it for both of us, and i wear something comfy, no need to be sexy in my sleep

I wear it to look sexy. Although if the material is itchy or irritates my skin I will not wear it, so it least has to be somewhat comfortable.

First off, I sleep nude because it's more comfortable. But when it comes to using lingerie during sex, I go for appearance more than comfort because it usually doesn't stay on very long. I recently bought a pair of crotchless panties that aren't very comfortable but I forgot all about that when I realized how sexy they made me feel!

Mainly to ornament my body, but it helps sometimes when I keep it on longer.

My partner. Andy likes it when I randomly surprise him with a new item or outfit.

Nothing. I sleep next to a man whose body heat heats up the bed to 90% I swear...

The purpose of lingerie is to look sexy. Its not all completely about comfort. Im pretty sure your partner wouldnt wanna see you in a nightgown or pajamas when your gonna have sex. You should look good and wear a corset or a babydoll. Those are confortable and theres even costumes out there that are confortable as well.

Is it to make yourself feel sexy, or to make your partner's jaw drop?

I suppose I'm rather odd, but I like to just have things. I like different textures and I'm the kind of person who can't leave a fabric store until she's touched everything. I do like to wear things for myself (I'll wear it all alone under a bathrobe just to flash myself in the mirror every now and then.) I also like things I can wear under my clothes. It's like having a pretty pair of shoes on, only no one else gets to see.

I buy more lingerie when I'm single... something about looking sexy under bland work/day clothes just makes me happy.

Of course, having a huge single-girl lingerie collection does have pleasant side-effects when I do end up in a relationship ^_^

I love how it makes me feel, and part of that is from his response of me wearing it for him...so I usually pick something that he is really going to like.

I could care less if it's for me (because I know no matter what I wear, hubby will like it) But I love seeing how he responds. I just recently find out he has a thing for maids, so the next costume~ I think we know what I'm getting~

Sexy lingerie isn't sexy if the person is visually uncomfortable.

It must be sexy on me or I'm not buying it! Comfort is an afterthought, or a way to decide between two equally sexy pieces.

I'm a big girl, even if I wasn't overweight, I'm still big boned and tall so it's a little hard to find plus size lingerie that's comfy for me.

I rather be comfy. I don't feel sexy if I'm trying my damnest to get out of a uncomfy piece of clothing.

Is it only there to be removed? Or do you sleep in it? Do you wear it around the house, even when your partner isn't around? Do you wear sexy things under your clothes?

Not very long at all, although there are times I end up falling asleep in my lingerie after sex.

All day if I'm in the mood, although I never sleep in it. I didn't vote for sleeping in "unsexy but comfy things" though, because I don't really want to consider my bare skin unsexy.
