because two legs go through the holes in the panties. Why do they call them a pair of pants. Same reason.

It relates to the "legs" which there are two of....(and two leg holes)...So, since a "pair" of legs go into them.. I guess they thought it was appropriate to call them a "pair" of panties...

Because the original Pantaloons did come in two parts, a left and a right that were laced together.

I believe they are talking about each pant leg.
One pant leg... a pair of pants.
I guess one pannie would be the hole you put your leg through.
Also like a pair of scissors. One scissor would be one blade.

Maybe 'cause it takes a pair of legs to put them on...

probably the same reason that jeans and shorts are plural...
I'd guess that it is because it has a pair of openings for your pair of legs.
