Women's Panties: A Buyer's Guide

Women's panties are underwear that provide a layer of protection and support between the body and clothing. Some panties are designed for comfort while others are designed to be sexy, sporty, or simply functional. As these intimates cater to a wide variety of different women with different tastes, they are designed with different functions in mind.
