This might be too personal of a question---but I'm not too shy to ask (hehehe): Do you wear thongs? I've had several conversations around this question over the past few months and I wanted to know how you all feel about this intriguing piece of cloth we call a thong (or g-string, y-string, etc). 1. Some people think they are necessary (myself included) for their practical purposes of hiding your panty line and protecting "your business" while feeling like you have nothing on. 2. Others believe quite the contrary. Putting a piece of fabric where-the-sun-don't-shine is just not something they can or want to do. The void of panty lines just isn't that important or they feel more comfortable in a full fledged cut. I can definitely see both side of the argument, though I will never give up my beloved thong (my favorite are Cosabella's mesh g-strings). What do you think? To thong or not to thong?
Posted by: KateAshford| Wednesday, October 28, 2009 at 10:21 AM Yes! Almost exclusively. They are just more convenient and I don't even notice them anymore... At the age of 62, I definitively am thong! No matter what I wear on top of them, I do wear nothing else but thongs. Why? first of all, they are as comfortable as any other underwear. Secondly, I find it ugly and so much un-sexy if one can see where your underwear starts and ends - this is too private to me! Not only do I wear thongs daily, I also wear Poise-pads daily!!... got to do, what you've got to do at a certain age ;-) I think it is a must. NO NO NO!!! & NOWAY! I avoid lines by not wearing anything that might cause them.. I swore by my teeny-tiny stringy panties for years untill recently. While I was pregnant I reverted to the "grandma panties" of my childhood years. My son is now 14 months old and I have no intentions of going back to the thong side of life. I purchase only seamless ones to avoid the dreaded panty line. I've heard tales of g-strings increasing a woman's odds of getting an infection and that is one of the main reasons I've decided to keep my bum covered. i used to wear them everyday, then i got pregnant and started wearing the boy shorts (solely for comfort) and now two children later i only were the boy shorts. i don't have to worry about pantie lines at by job due to our uniform we wear. and at home i am always in jeans or sweats. After YEARS of pulling yards of fabric from the "place where the sun don't shine" I gave them a try. (I have never found a panty yet that does not creep up yet, unless it is a Spanks or other form fitting item that goes down to my knees. Having just a tiny bit of string or fabric is much more comfortable then all that fabric, silk, lace or otherwise. I am also the type not to wear the high waist "granny panties" and have even spent many, many years going without before the thong became popular to the public woman. For some reason, my backside is a magnant for panties to creep up and I HATED the feeling of all that fabric stuffed up my behind, even the "No ride up panties" rode up!. It is a personal choice. I do not like feeling suffocated by items like spanks or even panty hose. For me it can cause infections when it is unable to breath or I get to sweaty. But, this is me and my physical weakness. I would not tell another woman that just because it is good for me, it has to be good for them. I have been wearing them for 30 years now. I have tried to love thongs, but there is just something about the vision in the mirror of my 46 yr old body in that tiny thing. Everything looks lumpier and bumpier. So, I stick with my French Cut 100% cotten Jockey underwear. Panty lines I avoid with SPanx when the clothing warrants them. Thong, thong, thong. They make me feel a little racy and it just looks so much better. Double duty in my book. I'm definitely pro-thong. I love hanky panky for their comfort and lack of panty lines. However, while thongs are typically an everyday occasion, I do revert back to a more full variety when wearing a skirt or dress - just in case the wind blows unexpectedly :) To me it's like...butt floss. Never could get into them -- metaphorically speaking. I love thongs! My favorite, everyday thong is the "Low rise cotton string thong" from Gap. No, I just don't like them. I need a little more substance to my underwear. I've worn thongs for probably 10-15 years now. I did it initially because I hate the look of panty lines and I've gotten to the point now where I'm uncomfortable wearing any other type of panty. I'm in my 50's now and I can't see changing to any other type of panty. No, because I would rather see a panty line than to see pants or even dresses or skirts up in someone's crack...which is really tacky. I have seen this all too often. There are also some rather serious health issues associated with wearing thongs. Why put yourself at risk because of a pair of panties?! yes yes and yes! much to my mother's chagrin - helping out one day after I broke my arm she holds one up out of the clean laundry and shrieks "you wear a thong?!" As I explained to her - once you realize it's not the same as your granny panties riding into your crack - it's not that big of a deal. My bra is more uncomfortable than a good thong is! Bottom line - there is NO good excuse for VPL, unless you're over 80. I made fun of a friend for years over her thong obsession. Through all four of her pregnancies she just slid them down. Last year she made me use my VS "free cotton panty" coupon to get the low-cut thong. I'm hooked dangit! OK, you asked - so here goes. NO, I absolutely do NOT wear thongs. You that do need to know that it may not show panty lines, however - what they do show is - THE THONG! You can see the outline of the back of the thong and your butt cheeks wiggling like Jell-O. So, if you think you are being inconspicuous by not showing panty lines, you are showing a whole lot more. On top of the fact that they feel like you are being invaded. So, no - I don't wear them. My mom actually bought me my first thong almost 20 years ago! I was totally opposed to it at first but got used to them pretty quickly and now thongs a little more than half the time. As another commenter pointed out, the back of your undies is going to end up there anyway, might as well reduce the amount that can creep up. In the 20 years I've been wearing them I have not had one single infection or problem of that nature. I do go for cotton or viscose most often though over synthetics. Like _any_ other piece of clothing, if your thong is uncomfortable or creating lumps and bumps, try a larger size! Hopefully there is only one other person who is going to see your panties that closely and, by the time it gets that far, I'm sure he (or she) won't care what number or letter is on the inside of 'em. |

I was all about thongs when I worked in an office, because I had to wear nice pants and I'm not into panty lines. Whenever I dress up or wear something sheer or form fitting, I definitely wear them. Since I work at home now, though, I wear more of the full-coverage variety, because I'm always in jeans. (I like Old Navy's Hipster underwear.)
