Underwear experts have warned people against following advice on a viral TikTok post which claims the pocket in your pants is to help organise them neatly. The post, which has had more than 2.8m views, claims there is a single purpose for the pocket - or gusset - in women's knickers.
User @aniezabay1 says in her video that the ‘pocket’ has been designed so people can fold underwear neatly. She says the using the extra flash of the garment is for holding the fold in place.
And many of her viewers were amazed at the suggestion with Gary Mac asking: "Why didn't they teach us this at school?" Others joked about their uses with Caleb saying: "It's there so you can store your money."
