...what.

it's used in a lot in Japanese **** in relation to perverts/ pedophiles, the word isn't used where I come from

Well that's quite wrong, then.
I don't even understand how you can relate them specifically to Japanese pedo **** . They use the word "pantsu" for panties in general, not specifically those of underage girls

Japenese shows are almost always subtitled by Americans or Japanese people who learned American English

Well, duh. Why would it ever use British English?

I was explaining to you why I associated the two? stop acting so defensive

Found the virgin

I know, you really are.

is there even another word for it? Like, british people might call them "pants", and i guess you could call them "underwear", but is there any specific term for it, other than "panties"?

some people call them knickers but for the most part they're just called underwear. I've never heard anyone say panties and it would be immediately picked up on by others if I did

women call them panties
men call it underwear
they share boxers

are you dense or something?

and here i was thinking post people called them that

It's a fairly common word. If you had any sort of interaction with them you might know that.

Obliterated.

i think you're missing "atomic" from your username.
