I don’t know which is more, um, interesting — that Aussies have invented a “backless G-string” or that going sans undergarments in Australia is referred to as “freebagging.”
(The undergarments, frankly, look both unstable and uncomfortable. For what it’s worth.)
(via the Flea)
Nonono, freebagging only refers to women going sans underwear. When men do it, it’s freeballing. Freeballing is a much more common term than freebagging, which I don’t think I’ve ever heard a real person use.
Ah! That would explain the paucity of Google hits on it. Lots more on freeballing — such as this fine site.
A couple of sites offer “freebuffing” as the female equivalent.
I’ll stick with “going commando,” if you don’t mind. It sounds a bit less vulgar.
Oh, but it’s so militaristic! Freeballing is so, so … well, free!
Commando…that sound so polically correct to me….I have balls I’m a man, and I go freeballing as much as possible, I’ll stick with freeballing, sounds correct to me…
I’m with you Stepbyrne… sick of all this politically correct stuff. If you’re a man, its your right to go free balling….. but “going commando” sounds fine.
as for free bagging, Im an Aussie and never heard the term used ( and I get out a fair bit!) and ‘free buffing’??? well frankly who cares, Free Balling is what is all about, and its something we guys can do exclusively!! Nice to know theres still SOMETHING we have that is for us alone!
