This question has plagued me for many a year. For a while I thought it might have been sort of a generational thing but last night at a family feed I was talking to my 2 oldest nephews and their girlfriends have stolen their t-shirts as well. WHYFOR DO THEY DO THIS?

I'm not talking the 'oh, I'm staying the night and your daggy old tee makes a nice impromptu nightie for cold nights' thing, either. That's understandable... But when petite wee lasses start nabbing multiple 4-6XL tees, questions arise.

Also, why always the best tees? Clean and in good nick I can understand but why always the best t-shirt? WHYYYYYYY?

I've lost upwards of 40 good t-shirts over the past 20 years to girlfriends.

I sometimes like to snuggle with his shirts, because it has his scent on it. And the scent is comforting to me when he isn't home. But I am not a shirt stealer.

No clue why they do it, but I think it's kinda sexy/cute when a girl wears my shirts.

Or anything of mine really.

It's the smell. It's a sign that they really like you. Just go with the flow.

better question, why do women steal your hoodies??
The girlfriend who stole the most of my t-shirts (around 15, long story how she managed that) hated hoodies to the point she bitched at me if I wore one around her (but she bought me a nice harrington jacket to make up for it) so my hoodies were safe from her.

However, until recently my fave hoodie wasn't safe from my bro-in-law because 7XL hoodies are hard to find around these parts.

It's so they can wear them so people will ask, "That's a man's shirt, why are you wearing it," and they can say, "Oh, this is my boyfriend's" or "This is my ex-boyfriends." And then they can pretend like they've had this really interesting sex life in which their boyfriends gave them their shirts as a way of saying thank you to them for being really great in bed.

Either that, or women really want to wear "I'm With Stupid" t-shirts but are too classy to buy them themselves. Plus, if any other women think the shirt is stupid, they can always blame it on their boyfriend.

If you have any other questions about women, feel free to send me a profile message or something on Twitter. You're welcome, in advance.

I would start to worry if she borrowed my used boxers, so as long as it's a misfits t-shirt every now and then, I won't complain.

Because they make better shirts for men then shirts for women. Also if you steal stuff it's free. And it's easy to steal from people whose house you go to. Also if they don't realise that you realise it's theft they won't accuse you of the theft. Guys pretend it's something cute girls do that means they like them and girls get a free cool shirt. Everyone is happy :)

That's an excuse for nabbing one or two. It's not an excuse to make off with half my wardrobe.
Then take it as a sign that you have good taste. Maybe just bite the bullet and start buying clothes for your girlfriend.

I can top that. My mother steals clothes from everyone in the family. She even tries to give me some when she does my landury. No idea why and i hope to god i don't do that. I can buy my own damn shirts.

The simple answer to the question is "Because they can." Girls are mysterious creatures, they need no reason to take things, just accept the boob marks in your t-shirts and move on.

Just buy T-shirts with absolutely horrendous things written on them " I got date raped and all i got was this lousy t-shirt", can't see that being stolen. Might make people look at you a bit funny though. Oh and your girlfriend might leave. but you'll still have the t-shirt...

Tight t-shirts Bro. Can't be used as a nighty. And if they are... well AWESOME.

You know I thought for the longest time that the only reason girls HAVE boyfrinds is to steal their clothes and wear their hoodies when it's cold and they didn't bring anything warm, (happens all too often for this to not be planned in advance.) Still do in fact.

They steal them so they can feel connected to you. If your girlfriend steals your T-shirt that mean you got that p***y on lockdown.

This. Oh God help me, THIS.

Although my girl actually has my pajamas AND my best black hoodie, sooo...what the hell, I guess. At least she hasn't taken my leather jacket yet...that privilege belonged to my ex, and ever since I got it back with red paint splashed all over it, I've been very selective about who gets to touch my jacket.
