OT Except for at work, I don’t wear gitch. I don’t see the point of wearing a floss rather than nothing at all. I read some place that satany, lycra undies can cook ya up some serious yeast. The thought of yeast there scares me. So I go without undies… without panty lines …and without strings peeking out over my pants. ---

Around town about three times now, I’ve seen girls walking around with their pants _unbotton and unzipped, with the front splayed open_. I’d give anything just to be looking at peek-a-boo thongs at this point. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Bongmaster \* > \*\*Um, let me get this straight…you guys are complaining about seeing thongs on half-naked high school girls? \*\* No kidding. I thought this forum was supposed to remove ignorance, not increase it. For the Teeming Millions, here is the truth of the matter: Thong sighting != Bad Thing In fact, I occasionally get a random sighting that causes such a reaction in me that I pull a groin muscle. Repeatedly. 😃 ---

Never EVER say in public to a woman: “Goddamnit! Shave your ass if you’re going to wear a thong” ---

But in scanning a room, your eyes are drawn to bright objects, such as a strip of bright neon pink against dark blue. And while some girls who wear them are attractive, I find immodesty unattractive. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Ethilrist \* > \*\*I would be shocked, yes, _shocked_ to find out that none of the brave and glorious ladies of this board had underwear with cute li’l Satans on them… \*\* I WANT THOSE UNDERWEAR! ---

BTW Calvin Klein makes an pretty good “ultra low rise” thong. I haven’t had a problem with them showing at all. Though they might with those one inch zipper pants. :eek: ---

OK, I’m with you on the “ugly hags in thongs” thing, but thongs as a general topic; nope, it’s all good. Just last week in fact, an entirely attractive coworker, whom I would never have guessed wore anything buy granny panties, bent over in front of me and provided me with a long glance at a black thong (“It’s like the sun. Glance and look away.”) Brightened my day, let me tell you. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Sue Duhnym \* > Hee. I typed thing instead of thong first. I guess it could work either way. Well, sure. If he got into your thong, that’d probably get it all stretched out. [sub]then again, that works for “thing,” too…[/sub] :eek: ---
