OH bought me a thong bikini

[desparateidiot]

I am 46, I have lost a lot of weight recently and I am feeling really comfortable in my body atm. More than I have for years.

Going on holiday at the weekend and my DH (that stands for dickhead, right?) made a joke about me wearing a thong bikini bottom and jokingly I said yeah, thought we were messing about. I have actually bought myself 2 bikinis showing more flesh than I would have normally shown, but I literally sunbath, I don't walk around in just my bikini

DH (dickhead again, yeah?) only went on amazon and ordered me a black pair of bikini bottoms, more or less a thong 😱

Am I too old at 46 to bare more flesh? I would quite like the confidence to do this but in the back of my mind I'm like, anyone looking at me will be thinking old woman in a thong, is it not just for younger women with perfect figures, or is it acceptable?

Thongs are normal now. Only important thing is if you want to wear one.

Don't hate him - i call him it all the time and he calls me a which - it's a kind of term of endearment, and at the time didn't think he would buy me one lol

Update - back from holiday - I did wear it 1 day for about an hour, it's not for me, but thought I would try it anyway
