Underpants are essential personal clothing for everyone. Whether men or women, choosing a suitable pair of underwear is like having a health protection wall. But do you know the reason why people first put on underwear? This is also closely related to health.
The first person to put on underwear is a man
It is said that women are more shy than men, but the earliest underwear was invented by men.
In ancient China, there was a distinction between top and bottom clothing. During the Zhou Dynasty, people wore shin coats under long robes. However, the true modern sense of underwear still comes from the West.
As early as the 13th century, Western men wore a loose type of underwear close to their body under other clothing. This type of underwear is knee long and made of linen, with a rope worn at the waist to tighten it. During the Renaissance, the shorts became shorter and the front placket was opened, so men didn't have to take off their shorts when urinating. With the development of fabrics, cotton and silk underwear have also become popular.
By 1935, Jocke Yin Company in the United States had sold the world's first triangular underwear with a herringbone front seam in Chicago. Triangle underwear allows men to expose their legs to the limit, and fashion historians believe its significance is comparable to that of bras. In three months, 30000 pairs of briefs were sold in the United States, and Jocke Yin urgently produced the "masculinity" series, which was flown to shopping malls across the country.
During this period, the underwear was sewn with elastic straps. The term 'underwear' has also been included in the dictionary. The reason why triangle underwear sells well is mainly because it caters to the needs of health. If a man does not wear underwear and keeps his testicles hanging, he is prone to developing varicocele. Due to its snug fit, triangular underwear has a more protective effect.
French women wear underwear for horseback riding
The development of women's underwear was relatively late until the 17th century, when the French led the trend and a trend of wearing underwear emerged in the court. French women refer to underwear as "Garzon".
At that time, the skirt worn by French women was supported by a skirt support, and the skirt became wider and wider, causing many inconveniences. In addition, French women love horseback riding, which has made the "Garzon" underwear popular. Women practice riding on saddles, often wandering and being harassed by lecherous people. Additionally, bacteria can invade their lower body, leading to gynecological diseases. So women put on underwear one after another to avoid dust, prevent wind and cold, and hide things that cannot be seen by men.
Subsequently, some women used bright fabric to make underwear, giving it an aesthetic factor. In the history of American clothing, women refer to underwear as a great invention that goes hand in hand with bras. American fashion researchers believe that underwear not only fits the curve of a woman's buttocks, increases its charm, but also allows adult women's figure to return to a perfect proportion. At the same time, underwear also plays a supporting and protective role on the genitals.
Health and comfort are the mainstream
Underwear has a long history, but there has not been much change in appearance, and the most important thing is the fabric.
At present, health remains the main direction for the development of underwear. Underwear produced with bio antibacterial fabrics has been launched, and the materials and designs are also more environmentally friendly and healthy.
Q: Should women wear underwear when sleeping?
A: You can wear it or not, as long as you don't wear too tight underwear. If underwear is too tight, it is recommended to switch to loose ones during sleep, as this will ensure smooth blood circulation and be good for sleep. Some people love to sleep naked, which is also good because women's genitals are constantly moist and prone to harmful bacteria. If sufficient ventilation and ventilation can be maintained, the risk of common gynecological diseases can be reduced.
Underwear, from a certain perspective, is a small mirror that reflects the health of the female reproductive system. It is generally recommended to choose light colored pure cotton underwear. Firstly, light colored underwear can help detect abnormal signals, such as whether the color of the vaginal discharge is incorrect or whether there is abnormal bleeding in the vagina; Secondly, compared to dark colored underwear, light colored underwear has fewer chemical components such as dyes, which is beneficial for protecting women's private areas and their physical health.
