International Brotherhood of Union Suit Fans! 

The month of May is nearly over and I'm now down to just a few names to draw from out of my hat for recognition. If you are viewing these postings and all others on an Apple Iphone or an Androyd, remember to scroll down to the botton of the page and choose "View Web Version." Try it and you'll see a much better view of photos and narrative.

Today brings us Ron Payne, an exceptionally fun and comfortable fellow union suit devotee. But that wasn't how his underwear choice started out. As a little boy, growing up in northern virginia, he dismissed long underwear out of hand even though when he began attending high school, he saw other boys wearing union suits in the locker room.

It wasn't until he attended William and Mary College as a teenage freshman that he finally embraced wearing long one-piece underwear. He's chosen to wear white ones ever since. I've not seen him in a red union suit or any other color for that matter. 

You can read his first encounters in wearing union suits himself in my postings of his exploits on November 14, 2019 in "A Thespian Union Suit Fan, Part I," and "An Innocient Rube, Part II."  And, then more recently, "Why Be Shy?" posted on October 15, 2023. 

After each of Ron's three stories, I probably received more emails and comments than on any other postings. That's probably because his personal histroy of wearing union suit underwear reflected so much of ourselves in the fun, warmth and enjoyment of wearing one-piece, long underwear!

It's a real pleasure having Ron in our International Brotherhood!
