Etymology of BANTIES

The term "banties" is a colloquialism derived from the word "panties". "Panties" originated from the French word "pantalon", meaning "pants", which later transformed into "pantaloon" in English during the 17th century. Over time, "pantaloons" referred to a type of loose-fitting trousers worn by both men and women. As fashion evolved, the term "panties" specifically began to refer to women's undergarments, particularly briefs or knickers. The alteration from "panties" to "banties" might have developed through regional accents, dialects, or slang, resulting in a variant pronunciation.
