Actually, there are drawstring boxers specifically for such an occassion. Definitely doesn't flatter ones figure in a skirt, I'd imagine, but all quite the rage among the Amish.

As for the tie on undies, it's not that far fetched. Just think of the various drawstring bikinis favored by the sort of calendar one sees in car shops and Spring Break catalogs. I'm guessing that those poor souls live in fear of the laces coming undone at inopportune moments, like when the credit card bounces.

Going fun-and-fancy-free is definitely an option, until you consider that females require undergarments at least once a month. And you wouldn't be able to participate in any sports: tight bras and cups both require elastic for their support.

As for the current tie-on undies that starving children in Africa would be more than happy to own: the current design of those include elastic as well. They don't need to be untied to slip on and off. What of the leg openings? Are they just left to flap in the warm Cancun breeze?
