"Though all these garment line pictures and explanations may seem kind of annoying, kind of boring, kind of just rude in mannery, it's very important because when you know these details, and you know where to put them on your crookie, it gives you a sort of map in which to gauge, how one wear, you're going to put the different elements of a garment. And once you know, once you know where the basic underlying lines are, you can build off of that, of with your own creativity, and you can make something have your own kind of flare, but it will still make sense to anybody who were to look at it. Here, we have the panty line in the front and panty line in the back. And these should cut high on the leg, elbow, sides, front and back, and obviously, anybody who's ever seen a pair of underwear knows what I'm talking about, their going to look different. Your rear ends little bit bigger than the front, going to be a little bit bigger in the back no matter what kind of panty line you're going to have, if you should have one or in this one, just put whatever, you still have to have one on there. This will be the basic, most basic type."
