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.

Because she hates him. Just like most of the women who post on here about their husbands do

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
