Well right now as I sit here… I am wearing a thong.
Now this is something strange as I have never worn one before and this is my only one. It took a little getting used to but I am finding I kinda like it. Now I want to go shopping tomorrow and buy myself somemore.
Anyone else here wear thongs? (I’m sure some of you do) Why did you try them in the first place?
Just kinda curious now that I’ve tried wearing one.
Ever since one of my girlfriends said “You were full-butted underwear? Don’t you find all that fabric on your butt kinda gross?” I thought about that, discovered that I did find all that fabric kinda gross, and went floss shopping the same day.
Fellow thong (g-string) wearer here. I don’t remember why I started wearing them, but I would now rather go commando than wear so-called normal underwear. Sooo comfy!
Oh…I hope you ARE referring to underwear and not footwear.
I own a few, but they always freak me out. It just never feels right. In general, I try to not have things up my butt, and thongs fly in the face of that dictum.
What really kills me is going to the bathroom. After I pee, I have to fight the urge to take the damn thing off and hurl it somewhere. I hate the feeling of pulling it up as it re-wedges itself in between my cheeks.
I only wear them when the cut of the pants absolutely requires it.
Oh good gawd, thongs are the most uncomfortable things invented. I’m in Nacho’ boat–I have a few, but rarely wear 'em, and when I do, I usually want to rip 'em off.
Well, I for one do NOT wear any sort of underwear other than boxers (yes, I am a guy.) I just chimed in to ask a question that has burned at my soul for too long.
Is there a difference between a thong and a g-string? And if so, what is it?
I’m a guy who finds VPLs slightly fetching in a girl and doesn’t get worked up about thongs. But…(Butt???) A serious question: Aside from the discomfort, aren’t there er… hygiene issues where thongs are concerned? Is clothing supposed to be in such close proximity to the anus?
I’ve never had a thong, but I’ve been thinking about getting one or two. Just to see what it’s like, doncha know? Is there a difference I should be looking for in terms of fit or what? It seems like everything ought to be the same as with regular bikinis, but I feel like the fit would just be different somehow, what with the fabric-up-the-butt thing.
They’re all I wear! (Except for a few days out of the month… :P) I love them. I remember my first pair, I spent all day trying to pick it out of my butt. Then I realized, it’s supposed to be there! And fell in love. They’re just like tampons, get them in there right and you don’t even feel them. No VPL, sexy feeling of jeans/skirt right on the butt, and guys tend to melt when they find out they’re all you wear.
For beginners: don’t go all out on your first pair. But something comfy, like basic cotton. Once you learn to love them you can move on to sexier things.
I’ve tried them before, but after I threw the last of them out I never wanted them again. They’re interesting as far as how they work under close fitting pants, but I’m not as apt to wear that kind of stuff except when I do a dance performance. And even then I haven’t had need for them. Having something ride up your ass like that takes a little getting used to, that’s for sure.
I don’t know why anyone bothers with any of it. Other than that time of the month, I go commando, and it is sooo much more comfortable than any kind of underwear.
I wear either thongs or big granny style underpants. Medium sized underpants have a tendency to bunch up between my arse cheeks. If the fabric is going to end up there anyway, I may as well start with the least amount of fabric.
I like to call them ‘backless pants’, rather than thongs or G strings.
About 2 years before Mrs D. and I were married, she got me a thong. The first time with it on, it took some getting used to, but afterwards, I liked wearing it. I don’t wear one anymore. My… er, body has undergone some minor changes since then and thongs would probably end up losing the battle in holding things in place nowadays.
People (speaking of women here) have different types of buttcheeks, I find. Some types find thongs very comfy, others find them icky and not so comfortable. Women with rounded buttcheeks may not like them. (please note I am not saying rounded buttcheeks is a bad thing) In past discussions, those seem to be the girls (IRL) who have expressed dislike of them. I have a skinny butt. (If you have a round butt and would like to dispute my theory, please do.) I don’t know how guys could stand them, but then I’ve never had testicles anyhow.
As for ‘hygiene’, I make a point of wearing pantyliners with my thongs. You may then throw the icky away before getting on with the nasty with your SO. Also lets the thongs last longer. expensive buggers.
I’m in Tansu’s camp. I end up with normal undies up my arse anyway, so why not wear something designed to go there ?
That said, some are really uncomfy, and others… ooohh, it’s like you’re not wearing anything at all oooh the bliss.
Oh, and Venoma your theory is hereby disputed I have a largish butt, and I love my thongs. [sub]and please don’t get me started on pantyliners. Uuuugh, they’re right down there with hankerchiefs. Uuugh[/sub]
