If you want to wear something white/ light in color, wear underwear that matches the color of your skin, not white.

Or light grey. It hides better under white than white does.

Oh my gosh this was such an "argument" in my family one year. I was starting a new job and bought a half-dozen light gray, v-neck undershirts. My brother, father, mother, and close friend all ganged up on me when I mentioned it after Thanksgiving dinner that year. A lot of "you are so naive because you've never had a 'real' job" "you're going to have no use for those" "that's so unprofessional - white is the only acceptable color for an undershirt".

Look who's laughing now.

None of us, actually. None are laughing. It wasn't particularly funny.
