Most men insisted that they wash their underwear after each use
(Picture: Getty Images)A Twitter user has sparked an impassioned online debate after suggesting all men have pretty questionable hygiene standards.
User Sav (@9021hoee) racked up more than 6,600 shares and 1,300 comments, on his tweet stating: “Let’s be honest, no man wears a pair of underwear just ONE time before washing them.
"Every man wears each pair of underwear at least 3-10 times before washing them.”
His assessment was met with revulsion by scores of readers, with one writing: “Nah man, that’s just you.”
However, some others admitted following a similar approach – although agreed that 10 reuses was excessive.
One man responded: “I definitely do this," but stressed: "Now, while I’m with you, wearing undies 10x’s is excessive but, 2/3 times, definitely."
While another wrote:
Lol yea not gone lie usually get about 2 good uses outta mines before I toss to the dirty pile, but that’s because they be genuinely still clean and smell fresh. If I can’t smell my balls then they good for another day

That can't be right. But if it is, sir, thank you, because I am never having sex with a man ever again.
I don’t even like sleeping in the same shorts for two days and y’all out here wearing the same underwear more than once. pic.twitter.com/9lIND5PTZN

No, not true at all. The only piece of clothing with the ability to go for long stretches between washes is jeans. Everything else is one and done.

It’s worth noting that Sav attempted to tar women with the same brush in a separate post:
Even women wear a pair of underwear multiple times before washing them. So I know men doing it too. Y’all love getting on twitter and acting like y’all just so high genial. 🙄🙄🙄

But they weren’t having any of it:

What we can glean from this whole debacle is that people prefer clean underwear. And thank god for that.
