AIBU to not understand thongs?

[frakkinaround]

I hate them! I don't get how having a strip of material shoved up your arse is comfortable or attractive. They seem to make even the lingerie models look bad, which is quite an achievement, and they're so blimmin' obvious! I don't get why men find them sexy!

What's wrong with a nice lacy pair of French knickers?

Nope Big Knickers for me! (What a surprise!)

Not interested in feeling like I've got a wedgy all day.

Sod VPL

YABU.

Thongs are v comfy and there's no chance of VPL.

To anyone who complains about thongs feeling like dental floss .. they are too small and you need to go up a size (or two)*...

We went swimming today in our local German pool and saw two old blokes - 70 if they were a day! - wearing thongs. One was red and the other was a rainbow pattern.
They had their entire bum on show and much of what was at the front too. DD was fascinated.....

Have to say it didn't LOOK particularly comfortable!

i love thongs. i feel sexier in them and never wear knickers anymore

Every underwear style has a season. I am usually ahead of the pants pack and was the first to move from thongs to big pants -it just felt right for a change. i briefly toyed with super big PE pants, but I am now back to bikinis with proper arses in them.

So YANBU, thongs are not ok except for flesh toned ones to prevent vpl, but vpl is BACK!

i always wear thongs. i find pants uncomfortable now and dont like vpl

I don't wear underwear at all unless I'm wearing a skirt (which is about twice a year).

Thongs are pointless really. They pretty much just cover your pubes - what's the point of that?

dont you get camel toe wearing trousers with no underwear??

aparebtly thongs are common in younger women...

I must be the exception then... i cant stand them. They DO NOT look sexy.... i look great in little shorties..... just the right amount on show to get any man flustered and excited

WEARING THONGS LEAVES NOTHING TO THE IMAGINATION - if it's easy access you are looking for go for a pair of slit panties... now that is sexy......

thats apparently

no camel toe here juicychops - I don't wear my trousers that tight!

I'm tempted to get a few pairs of these but as I have fat thighs I think I'd look stupid and feel really uncomfortable as they'd just ride up into my leg crease IYKWIM.

i have them but cant wear them under clothes. i just wear them to lounge around in in the evenings when its warm. i think they are quite sexy actually

These are the shorties i am talking about. They are all i wear. (very sexy with really long socks and a nic bra - for me anyway) Sorry sidge i am skinny so dont know if they would ride up or not but my sis has big thighs and i dont think she has had that problem.....

VPL is never a good look. There's nothing worse than seeing the imprint of a 'VW' under someone's trousers. (Google the VW logo and you'll see what I mean!)

Why would anyone wear big pants insted of a thong?????

Thongs are so comfy, they only cut you in half if you wear a size 10 when you should be wearing a size 14

I hate seeing the top of a thong with low cut jeans (very common) but hate hate hate seeing the shape of someone's big pants through their trousers!!

I may be 35 weeks pregnant but I am still wearing thongs!!

OK can i just say i am a size 8-10 and have size 12-14 thongs and THEY STILL RIDE UP MY ARSE! (and yes i also have thongs that fit 'right' , that is why i have the bigger thongs)

Nothing like a thong for getting rid of VPL.

Take a bit of getting used to , but your bum crack soon toughens up. Just like getting used to flip flops.

I don't let anyone see my bum in just a thong though. Not nice.

I have no more problem with VPL with my panties than my shorts.

Heres a thought -- stop wearing your clothes too tight

I'm a size 10 to 12 and bought size 16 thongs and they still crawl up my arse and irritate the life out of me.

Should I be buying a size 18 or 20 then?

I find thongs comfy. They just rest in your arse crack, you aren't meant to rive them up ie!

I have loads of different ones and shorts, from lacy and satin, to embroidered, see through, ribbon tied, plain cotton, to Shaun the Sheep and Spongebob ones!

I hate knicker shaped knickers though, They wedge up my butt and if they're not doing that, they are giving me the four arse cheek look which is really not attractive.

Mind you, you have to choose any underwear carefully. There's nothing worse than walking behind someone who has made the wrong choice, and yes woman with weird yellow terry towelling skirt with blue thong under and a rather cellulitey arse in Tesco last week, I mean you.

LOL at your tesco lady muggglwump

oh i just realised i wrote 'shorts' instead of 'thongs' on my second to last (now thirsd to last) post!!

Okay, I'm now quite tempted to try and experiment....I am a small size 10, so shall go out and buy thongs in a 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20 and report back. Still not convinced though.

cocobongo this is exactly why I'm posting. I don't understand why the mid-range bras seem to come with thongs or huuuuuuge knickers. My Aubade ones have a lovely range of bottoms to go with them and the cheap ones don't fit but I don't really want to pay £80 a pop for a bra and £50 for matching bottoms!
