Young Blonde Girl Playing With Various Panties

Since then, women in flattering and provocative panties and lingerie have become a staple of several functions of male and lesbian popular culture. Several men's magazines such as Maxim and FHM often use images of attractive females in sensual lingerie to capture mainstream appeal.
Cultural impact
During the 1960s, there was a stir about the old, traditional views of women's undergarments, which some people wanted to conform to, rather than reshape, females' anatomies. Female anatomy was largely misunderstood due to censorship of the subject. Some complained that traditional women's undergarments were created to impose control and distort the appearance of women's figures. This movement caused many females to have a new outlook on their undergarments, and resulted in the production of undergarments that fit more naturally.
