The Bottom Drawer Forums

I now do not own any other underwear - I've been wearing them exclusively for many years now. I've even gotten rid of the back up pair of trunks I had for a Doctors visit.
Swimwear is slightly different - I wear briefs for lap swimming each morning. I have done it in thongs several times, usually while travelling for work. Beach wear and in my backyard pool is thongs every time.

I got my first thong at 17yo, and I am mid 50's now. I am certain it's been a primary motivator to stay in shape and well groomed (totally shaved now for at least 30 years).

Can't ever see any of that changing

Ditched that the moment there was no risk of a visible slip and even though I'm back to the office the thongs have stayed. So thongs for the working day and g-strings for sleepwear now. Really can't remember the last occasion that I felt the need to pull on anything else. Experimenting with the comfort of thong body suits as sleepwear now that the European winter weather is coming - little bit more coverage but same happy thong feeling!

CasperThong I was similar - prior to the pandemic I would wear thongs sporadically; my wife wasn't even aware I was wearing them and I only wore them around the house or to run quick errands. The pandemic hit and I was home, so started wearing them more and more now they are daily wear. I occasionally wear a bikini/string-bikini for fun.

Thongmad welcome to the forum and look forward to hearing about your thonging adventures. I have mostly boxed up my trunks and full cut briefs, but still keep a couple handy just in case. I wear thongs daily also, but if I know I might be in a situation where I might have to strip down to my undies, I'll put on a pair of trunks that day. That is one of my last hurdles to get over.

Thanks David_NC

I understand the issue of not wearing thongs around certain situations. We all have different comfort levels around what we show others about ourselves. I am comfortable to wear thong underwear in any other situation that any other style would be required/appropriate. Same goes for swimwear the vast majority of the time.
These days I have fairly well embraced the notion of doing what makes you happy (as long as there is no detriment to others around you) as life is way too short. If others do not like my choices and don't like me for them, that's fine. I'm only doing what thousands of others around me are doing.

If only we could learn to adopt that attitude as teenagers...

I switched to thongs last spring and love it. They are the only thing i wear anymore. The freedom you feel but something still providing support. Even wore mine out to a local beach a couple of times to tan even though I had never done that before.

And why should it?! Keep respecting

I take good care of my skin, and I shave my body once a month. I watch what I eat because I don't want to have an upset stomach while I am wearing a thong. I am at the gym 3-4 times a week, and I work on my glutes at least twice a week. I now enjoy going to the beach.

What are some choices you have made after switching to thongs?

I wear thongs or g-strings or jockstraps all the time, too, with some occasional briefs thrown in for good measure) and I'm doing all those changes you mentioned: I'm in the gym 3-4 days a week working on getting in shape (leg day is a beast!--lots of squats, leg curls, leg press and glute work, as well as calves and inner/outer thigh), I shave my upper body (chest/core/back/arms once or twice a week) & get everything from the waist down waxed every 4-5 weeks, I hit the tanning bed or booth (usually nude...still debating wanting thong tanlines or not) and trying to eat better and stay active. I want to look and be the best I can be at my age and wearing thongs gives me the incentive to do that!
