This gives her time adjust to you wearing thongs, allows you opportunity to try different brands and gives a visual treat when you surprise her with a skimpy pair. You can mix in modest pairs then wear skimpier ones ones special occasions to start. I think you both showed great respect for each other.

Thanks David. It’s taken a while to make forward progress but the simple fact she helped picked styles and colors she is OK with means a lot. I think this could be a breakthrough that leads to more acceptance and me expressing an array of choice without pushing boundaries too far with her. The compromise solution feels right and I’m excited about it. I’ll let you know how it goes when we start integrating the more modest coverage jockeys into our daily rhythm of life.

Thongs for Me wrote: Wed Mar 11, 2026 1:07 pm Started when my wife and I were dating and she told me that she would like for me to wear bikinis and string bikinis, then after a while I asked her if she would like me to wear thongs, she said if that is what you want to wear than go for it. After 18 years of marriage she still is very supportive of me wearing my thongs, if fact she picks them out for me. Great having a wife that is so supportive of my choice of underwear, wear my thongs 95% of the time.

So pleased to hear your story. You are in a great place to have an open minded and supportive partner who encourages your freedom of choice and builds you up. It is a bit difference from my experience but I’m slowly making small gains in my journey with my wife of 25+ years. I’m a bit jealous of the freedom you have! Enjoy having an engaged and supportive spouse!

Thanks for the encouraging words, hope things get better for you. Wife has worn thongs for years, now she is having me pick them out and buy them for her, I guess I am a lucky man.

Bueno a mí mujer en principio no le gustaba la idea de que usará tangas.
En aquella época tampoco esque los usará a diario pero si esporádicamente.

Con el paso del tiempo y además de que cada vez hay más ofertas y marcar que apuestan por incluir en sus colecciones tangas para hombre eso a hecho que poco a poco toda mi ropa interior sean tangas o jocktrap.

Poco a poco cuando tenía que renovar mi ropa interior le pedía a mi mujer que en vez de comprarme slip o boxer que yo prefería que me comprase tangas y que para mí los encontraba más cómodos.

Ya de hace unos años es el único estilo de ropa interior que uso 24/7 . Mi mujer ya se a acostumbrado a que solo use tangas y ella se encarga de elegir los modelos y de comprarme los.

Como os decía antes mi mujer en aquélla epoca cuando empecé a usar los tangas me decía que los veía poco masculinos y a día de hoy me dice que los tangas me hacen un culo precioso y apetecible. Así que entiendo que al final de todo asta a ella le gusta y le parece bien que use tangas de chico.

Quick update…the more modest Jockey thongs she picked out arrived over the weekend and I have tried them out over the past few days. They are more comfortable than expected which is great. I’ll review them separately.

Her reaction has been mostly neutral which I see as a win. I wore them Sunday morning and nonchalantly stood in front of the bathroom vanity in just the Jockey while we were both getting ready for church. (I have been hiding/filtering thong exposure of late so this was a change in routine and a bold step) I didn’t get the uncomfortable side eye but she did comment that she may never like them, trunks look better, but it wasn’t an emotionally charged statement as it has been at times prior. Normal conversation flowed after her brief comment and all was as usual.

I wore the jockeys again yesterday (Tuesday) and did my get ready for bed routine in just a thong. No comments from her in the bathroom together and neutral reaction. I went to bed wearing it and we had sex! Interaction was spontaneous, fun, and felt very normal. Progress!

I will continue to mix in the trunks for bedtime routine since she likes them, but a few days per week normal thong wearing while getting ready for bed and then wearing the thong to bed feels like a good next step.

Making progress…Hope she continues with mostly neutral response in the short term and hopefully more curiosity down the line.

After reading through all of these posts, I've come to realize just how fortunate I am that all the women I've been in relationships with have at least not minded my thongs, but many of them have couraged me

Congrats. That’s huge progress. Certainly signals curiosity which is a great sign! I’m hoping she continues to be open to your preferences. Good luck!
