Should petticoat really imply lingerie?

This question was raised in post #1304 and I thought it might be worth making a thread to discuss it. Should petticoat imply lingerie?

I was under the impression that petticoats are worn between the underclothes and the main garments. If that's so, then no, it shouldn't imply lingerie.

It shouldn't, IMO.

It was blowing my mind why, every time I tried removing the lingerie tag from post #1304, it kept popping back up. I believe a petticoat CAN be lingerie, but it isn't inherently so. I vote we axe the implication.

I'm not sure how the implication was ever put in place, so yeah, I agree that it should be removed. If it's a lingerie-type image then people can tag it that way manually. ┐(´ー｀)┌

Probably a pretty old implication (it has the "reason" field populated, which we don't do anymore because that's covered by forum threads). Removed.

I don't have a problem with this, although I made the original implication, since it does clearly cause an absurd result.

In my defense, I will note that the petticoat is absolutely an article of lingerie, which is simply a term meaning "women's undergarments"; it's just that today's lolis seem not to have the sense to realize that their underwear is showing.

I place the blame squarely on Minnie Mouse.

I do have to ask -- where, then, does this put nightgown, when you look at post #418269?

AFAIK the character is an invalid and doesn't leave her house, so a nightgown just happens to be her daily wear.

The point is, she also gets an implicated lingerie that seems as much out of place as in post #1304.

I have to agree. That result seems just as absurd as the one in the first post.

Removed the nightgown implication as well.

I believe that a long time ago the petticoat was the main female undergarment worn below the waist. The panties/knickers were introduced later, which has left the petticoat with a slightly ambiguous status.
