In the last week, I read chapters in two (fiction) books where the authors made reference to mens’ briefs (underwear).

One author used the term ‘tighty whiteys’ – the other used the term ‘tidy whiteys’.

I always thought it was “tighty”.

Norma Loquendi and I would like to know what’s the correct adjective.
