Now, the above example would be more than extreme. And I'd presume that the girls would have to be really good friends - or more - to be trying to match their panties to each other's. It's not like two girls showing up at a party in the same dress, either- I'd think it's a conscious effort.
I remember asking for opinions of girls on I site I frequent about the above phenomena, and several said they participated in it as well. One girl said she hadn't, but explained if she and another girl were to do such a thing, they'd 'both end up on the floor with their jeans all the way off so she could inspect the other girl's panties much more closely.'
And, here I thought I had a lingerie fetish..
I'm telling you it's more common, though sometimes more ridiculous than you might think.
