YouTube star has gone COMMANDO for 15 years because underwear is ‘uncomfortable’

A YOUTUBE star says she does not wear knickers “99.9 per cent of the time” because doing so is “uncomfortable”.

Hannah Howlett, 29, stopped wearing pants or bras during junior high school and claims she hasn’t done so regularly for 15 years.

The Minnesota-based lifestyle blogger, known to her fans as ‘High Carb Hannah’, created a new video, Why I Don’t Wear Underwear, which has been viewed more than 130,000 times.

In the 10-minute-long film, Hannah explains why she decided to ditch her undercrackers:  “I can honestly say, 99.9 per cent of the time I do not wear any underwear and the reason for that is basically because I think it’s very uncomfortable.

“And I’ve been like this since junior high school so I can literally not remember the last amount of time that I regularly wore underwear.”

She added: “I’m talking like thongs, briefs, boy shorts, whatever. I don’t wear any of it 99.9 per cent of the time.”

Hannah stopped wearing knickers from around the age of 14, which became a massive source of amusement for her pals.

“Every single day my friends would make a huge joke out of it, I’d come to school and they’d be like, ‘Hey Hannah, are you wearing underwear today?’ And I’d be like, ‘No, I’m not wearing underwear,”‘ she said.

“And I just never liked to wear underwear, I didn’t wear it with jeans, I didn’t wear it with yoga pants, I didn’t wear it with any type of pants that I was wearing.”

Hannah, who has nearly 90,000 followers on Instagram, lost more than four stone by following a “whole foods plant-based diet” and normally blogs about veganism and healthy living.

She revealed her husband Derek, a fellow YouTube star, rarely wears boxers, too.

Hannah claims she only wears pants if “Derek wanted me to for something” or if she’s wearing a short skirt or dress “because I honestly don’t want to take the chance of the wind not being in my favour that day and everyone seeing my goods.”

She says going commando stops you suffering with “pantie lines” and “wedgies”, and she claims “clothes actually fit better”.

Hannah believes it’s better to ditch your pants when working out because “your body is sweating so much, you’re creating a lot of heat. You don’t want extra moisture in areas where you don’t need extra moisture.”

She said she would “hate it” if she had to wear underwear daily and said it is society that dictates that it is normal to do so.

Hannah also insists she has not experienced any health risks, such as yeast infections.

“Going commando and getting a yeast infection or a disease or something like that from not wearing underwear, it just doesn’t happen,” she said.

“This is coming from someone who has been going panty-less for 15 years almost.”
