Why is the word panties plural?

Home More advice General Knowledge

I've been trying to figure this out for a while, and I just cant wrap my head around it. Why is the word 'panties' plural? Isn't something plural supposed to contain more then one? "I bought a new pair of panties today" Why is it a pair? Isn't a pair more then one? I don't get it, I'm frustrated.
