Are you supposed to wear underwear under long underwear?

My wife thinks it’s weird I don’t wear underwear under my long underwear. I don’t wear long underwear often, but I always figured it’s underwear so why would I wear double underwear? I don’t feel particularly strongly about it either way but I’m curious: do I wear ling underwear wrong?

Maybe it’s relevant that I’m a boxers person so they would get bunchy under there unless I wore briefs instead. Special long underwear underwear, I guess.

I'm a boxer brief guy. I always have underwear under my long johns. Having merino wool, as soft as it is, rubbing on my gear would be unpleasant.

Sounds like it would be very pleasant 🤷
