    views on thongs?
    Hey, I just wondered what everyone's view on thongs and g strings r.

    I'm 12 and have been wearing them for about a year and love them. My mummy wasn't too sure about it at first but got used to it. I am worried people will think I'm too young though

    How old is everyone else starting to wear thongs etc? And what styles are best? What's your favourite ones?

    Kaate.

    Bless you sweety heck the fact you wear knickers at all is great in the first place so you prefer to wear a thong what's it got to do with anyone else its about comfort and personal preffernce good for you for standing up for what you like.
    I used to wear thongs all the time until I got pregnant and found them more comfortable after all big knickers just ride up your butt anyway.

    As I understand them, the main purpose of thongs are to eliminate panty lines. I'm just wondering why a 12 yr old girl is wearing pants so tight she has to worry about panty lines.

    I don't think that is the only reason girls wear them.

    They just make you look and feel nice.

    Maybe you can explain to me how that make you look and feel nice?

    As for looking nice, why would they since they are minimalist. No one sees them (Or should be seeing them at your age) and they are nothing but basic strings where they would be different from any other panty. If you have a nice butt (and again a 12 yr old shouldn't be concerned with that) it can show off that better, but why do you need to.

    As to feeling nice. I can't imagine walking around with a string in my crack. Of course I'm a guy, but it still boggles the mind. But I can appreciate how older females might want to eliminate panty lines and would be willing to put up with the discomfort for that.

    I'm 12 not 5.

    I'm old enough to want to look good. They look nice to me when I see myself in them. Its not about other people seeing.

    You think I should stop then?

    I love thongs. They are surprisingly comfortable and I think they are kind of fun to wear (more fun than my "granny panties" :)

    Kate you are right nice underwear can make you feel nice. When I was still on the dating scene I always made sure I had on matching undies and bra. Not because I was planning on anyone seeing them (but me), but because they made me feel special, confidant, and like I was in control. Honestly, I can't explain why it made me feel that way. But, it did.

    On that note I have to add, it is important that you wear pants that hide the fact that you are wearing a thong... that thong hanging out above the waistband thing... I am not a fan of that.

    No I don't think that. I think that people recognize the purpose of things and they aren't perceived as trashy as when they first came out.

    I was kind of playing devil's advocate here. I was trying to see if you would say they made you feel sexy. And I do have a problem with a 12 year old that wants to feel sexy. But I think you just like they way they feel and make you feel and that is fine.

    I do feel sexy at times.

    But that's nuffin to do with thongs. Just me being a teen.

    I believe that I was in my early teens when I started wearing them. I ride horses, and they do not show under my breeches.

    I think you should wear whatever you are comfortable with and what your parents agree too (since you are only 12).

    My biggest thong hate is... When a girl bends over and I see that full triangle in the back and I get this terrible image of the rest of the thing. It always seems like a terrible accident, but I have read the texts above and can agree if a thong is used responsibly it can be more of a positive than a negative. LOL, I have seen a few 12 yr old girls flaunt G-strings in the past at the skate park near my home, it makes me a little uncomfortable. Showing off your underwear is common for boys too... Hanging their pants down to their knees but those are usually boxer shorts. If my daughter were twelve I would have to say no to the G-string and then she and her mom would do it behind my back for sure. But I love my daughter and would trust her, this just isn't make up and nails, or even naval exposure. It is very thin underwear being shown when ever you raise your arms or wear low hip jeans that catches the eye of every pervert walking around that is from 11 years old to 90years old. It may not technically be suggestive but it is a fact that they see it and I have a really hard time processing even the notion of allowing my girl @12 to be exposed like that, even to unknowingly entertain the gross minds of many. Please ladies do not send me a long list of disagreements cause I'm a good over protective dad relaying the reasons for why I feel the way I do. Anyway your Mom knows you better than anyone on-here and if she says it's OK by her, than who am I to argue. There are a lot of twelve year old girls on "ask me help desk" that are pregnant and I wish that all they had was a thong problem. Good luck with it all, you seem like you have a great head on your shoulders.

    I gues it does catch the eye. Id be careful not to lead someone into thinking the wrong way about me though.

    How old is your daughter then?

    You know what Kate reading your responses is refreshing you are wearing them for you and because they make you more comfortable its personel choice and no one has a right to call you out for that.
    Fair play to you for not biting to some of the bait it shows you are not an average young person like some of the ones we get on here big hugs to you.

    Aww thanks :-)

    To be honest I thought most of the replies on here were going to be "11/12 is far too young to be wearing sexy underwear!!" but I'm surprised.

    Keep this going though, iw want to hear from other girls about what age they started.

    Thanks bens wife :-) lets go thong shopping! Hehe

    I have always thought of thongs as butt floss, but to each his own. My best friend loves them. I prefer tap pants.

    My daughter is only six, so she still wears Barbie panties. I would base my decision on her wanting them on the motivation.

    My little girl is only 2 and a half genius, but too cute and has crushes on my friends and freaks me out... LOL. But I have very pretty nieces and young cousins that wear clothes that drop my jaw. Yikes! But I must say they are a product of their parents and are all so very well rounded, and I believe they wear "thongs" so very responsibly {as I'm sure you do} that I've never even really thought about it till now. And I think you are a teen, having read your responses to peoples answers and views. When I was 15 I think I had half the brain power that you have shown on here. :-)

    Kate I started wearing thongs when I was 16 a year ago I find them to be more comfy but I'm into bakini and boyshorts too ohhh and hipsters but I'd say I wear thongs more .

    My opinion is your too young to wear a thong but I have read all your previous posts and you seem mature for being 12.

    And as for my thoughts on styles I prefer the g strings with the small triangles in the back seems to feel better and not so noticeable(to me wearing it) like it feels like nothing I sometimes forget I'm wearing undies and have to check

    I was laughing at Emlands daughter and about when her boobs would grow.. Sorry, It had reminded me to post up a little problem I've been having with my daughter. So... I ran without any details as to why I was laughing.

    I will wear what I want! I always have

    Yeah same. Most of mines are the triangle back ones or just g strings. Although I love like normal lace thongs as well. Pink is good!

    Actually its NOT OK. At 12 kate has to wear what her parents want her to wear. Her parents are still responsible for her and what they say goes.

    Now I'm not saying she shouldn't wear them, I've already weighed in on that. But you shouldn't be encouraging her to not listen to her parents (not that I think she wouldn't, she doesn't sound the type).
