Thongs are HOrrible!!!

[ihatethongs]

I bought a lingerie set, and didn't realise I picked up the bloody brazilian style knickers.
So I wore them today, and It was TORTURE.
I went to IKEA with my mum and she couldn't get enough of the place, I wanted to scream all afternoon.
How can some people do it?

@pleasedonotfeedme but thongs are not uncomfortable for everyone. How is that so hard to understand?

More unhygienic than normal pants? How?

I've never worn a thong, g-string or Brazilian knickers and never will. Totally impractical and would drive me round the bend.

Give me my favourite granny pants any day. I want something that comfortably covers my arse, not rides up into it.

I love a thong. But it has to fit right. I wear thongs with leggings or right fit dresses. Also like thong body suits but only if the bodysuit has some give otherwise yes, feels like being sliced in two!

These are what I wear everyday, I haven't worn normal briefs in maybe 25 years. I used to find normal pants rode up any ass and I spent the day pulling them out - soft things I don't even feel them there.

I wear thongs at least once a week. It stays in place, so how is it rubbing bacteria into my vagina? Never had thrush in my life.

Because a thin strip of material is rubbing against your anus.

@Hungrycaterpillarsmummy when I wear a thong it really doesn't go that far in, and also the same anus germs will be still going on other pants.

I don't think any used pants are particularly hygienic but that's fine because you wash them after.

I used to wear G-strings when I was younger, and thongs. I'm now very much lace shorts or matching Brazilian briefs. Lace shorts don't give me a vpl and give me enough coverage. If I want matching underwear it's either big knickers or Brazilian briefs so as I'm not quite ready for massive pants it's Brazilian briefs.

I wore them when I was younger but no way could I wear a thong now! I never used to like big pants until I found Stripe and Stare but they are so comfortable.

Me too! Was a game changer when I ran out of underwear and put on my boyfriend's.

It’s all I wear. Just bought a load of new ones today.

Funny I was walking behind a woman with full briefs on in leggings the other day and I thought “she should really be wearing a thong or go commando in those because everyone can see her baggy knickers”. So there you go, can’t please everybody.

Well fitting thongs in cotton or another soft material are absolutely fine, as are brazilians. I really hate the feel of anything bigger in a pants style, although I'll very occasionally wear shorts.

I don't find big pants comfortable, they sit too high on my tummy, the elastic digs into your butt cheeks, unsightly vpl in anything but baggy trousers and they usually end up in a wedgie anyway, I wear Brazilian, I like the low rise, no vpl, but not cheese wire territory.

@pleasedonotfeedme - I think they look very sexy but then I do have a cracking arse. As far as hygiene, well, I wipe well, so that's not an issue. Op, why didn't you just go to the loo and take them off if they were causing you so much discomfort?

I find them comfy. They don't seem to bother me, and my ass, I have to say, looks great in them. I buy them in a generous size, and the front can cover my tummy nicely, while leaving my more curvilicious ass on display! They work for me - and my DH!

I hate them and have always hated them. I do have some but wear them as rarely as possible.

I hate flip flops too. I hate having something stuck between my bum cheeks or between my toes. I really don't understand how it's comfortable for anyone.

Wore nothing else in my 20's and 30's - no issues at all. Now into BIG knickers. The bigger the better. DP does not approve.

I find thongs so much comfier than any other underwear. All the rest end up as wedgies on me anyway so at least things are made to fit in the gap 😄

Don’t they bunch up under clothes and look lumpy. I can understand as bed wear but lumps of material in my jeans wouldn’t be comfortable to me, but I’ve tried and might be thinking it all wrong.

I wear Brazilian knickers and they're not like a thong (on me at least). I do buy knickers a size up though.

Growing up in the 00s I used to wear them to secondary school as a kid - everyone did then!

They went out of fashion when I was in my 20s and I can't imagine wearing one now. They're uncomfortable and look horrid imo.

Bit off topic, but I can't understand the number of women who wear bikini bottoms in this shape.
Not only uncomfortable, but hideously unflattering too.
Only about 10% of women (usually under 25) seem to have nice looking 'lower bum cheeks'. For everyone else it looks like a deliberate effort to show their cellulite and wobbly bits, and make them look even larger.....

I don't like wedgies. I feel that men have underwear that's comfortable and looks good
