man. I am the only member in my family and friday night my sister, out of nowhere, says "so what is with those mormon magic pants?!" And i freak out! I had no idea what to say. So, i opted out, tried to make it as quick and painless as possible and just said "they aren't magic, they are just a reminder for us to remain modest and really aren't that different from boxer briefs." I didn't go into endowments and certainly didn't talk about the protection they offer (that wouldn't go offer with this whole "magic pants" theory).

I have only been a member 8 months, so i haven't had the opportunity to go to the temple. I am 19 and with my parents for the summer. My favorite part of the conversation was when my mom said "Do you wear them?" and i was just thinking "Mom, you've seen my laundry."
