Then I came across this, and I'm not sure how to feel about it. Apparently, denim panties (yes, you heard right) is now a thing, and it is dividing people across the world.

Harpers Bazaar reports that the denim panty was created by Parisian brand Y/Project, and retails for about $315 (Over R4,000).

It has been described as a "denim brief-style shorts" online, but on social media, many are using terms such as "disgusting", "jean diaper", and "ridiculous" when talking about them.

Another thing: What about chafing? Guys, chafing is a thing, and I'm sure it will be much worse with denim. 

I'm not too sure how to feel about it, and I'm not going to be dropping over R4,000 on them anytime soon.
