Bikinis and Thongs: You Don’t Understand

Do you think bikinis and thongs are only women’s underwear and swimwear? That men shouldn’t wear these types of styles? Maybe that these styles are only for the bedroom. They’re not comfortable styles to wear, particularly a thong. That only certain body types should wear them. They’re being worn to be a show off. Maybe you’re against them in another way.

Then you just don’t understand the bikini and thong styles. Perhaps you had a bad experience with them like a bad fitting pair. More likely you haven’t tried them for one reason or another. Most likely for guys it is society saying they aren’t styles for them. Well, let me pop the bubble. They are great styles for both men and women of any body type.

Bikinis and Thongs as Underwear

Let’s talk about bikinis and thongs for underwear first. For a lot of people underwear is something they just wear under their clothes. You know, for hygiene. Or their mommas told them they needed to, so they continued doing so. They haven’t had the pleasure of wearing nice fitting sexy underwear. Bikinis and thongs provide the hygiene benefit just like fuller styles, but you get more with them.

Comfort – Yes, they are comfortable. Even thongs with the fabric between the cheeks. Now, I’m not going to say every pair is, but there are lots of comfortable bikinis and thongs out there.

Great Support – For us guys they offer great support for the boys. Most of the mainstream underwear out there does not offer much in the way of support if any at all (boxers). For me it is hard to beat a good fitting thong for support. Plus an added bonus they are cooler, which makes them great for sports and working out too. Having the right fabric makes a great difference for the support of the bikini and thong, so keep that in mind.

Less Restrictive – One thing I hated about briefs was they were tight on the thighs. With bikinis and thongs that is not a problem. With their narrow sides, it gives the legs lots of freedom. You also get to show some legs and potentially give an illusion you are taller.

Sexy – Personally, I’ve always seen bikinis and thongs as sexy. Who doesn’t want to feel sexy. Wearing something sexy should make you feel sexy. Yes, guys are allowed to feel that way too. When I pulled on my first bikini it felt awesome. Got even better when I found better pairs. Twenty-five years later, I still feel sexy every time I pull a pair on.

Confidence – This goes a long with sexy. Feeling good (sexy) helps bring out one’s confidence. So starting your day pulling on a sexy pair of underwear should give you a bit of a boost. Remembering you are wearing sexy undies during the day might give you a bit more hop in your step. Having a pair of wild underwear under business attire is a great way to spice things up. It’s a fun secret that most likely only you know about, which just peps up the confidence some.

Fun – Why wear the same boring underwear everyday when you can mix it up. Most of us don’t wear the same outer clothes day after day. Maybe certain people have to wear a certain uniform, but that makes it even a better idea to mix up the underwear. It’s another way to express yourself even though it is expressing it to yourself over others. There’s lots of styles and cuts in the bikini and thong market. You can choose from many different fabrics along with many colors, stripes, patterns, and prints. Mix up those undies to add a little fun to your morning routine and the day.

Bikinis and Thongs as Swimwear (Swim Breifs too)

Onwards to swimwear and what they can bring to the table in bikinis, thongs, and swim briefs. These are scary items to wear for guys which also could be the case for women too. It’s against the norm and showing more skin then guys are supposedly allowed to. Along with the anatomy that is forbidden to be talked about let alone showing it in something form fitting. Once you get over all of that and say screw the norm in men’s swimwear, you’ll find they are awesome to wear at the beach and in the water.

Cooler – Basically less fabric means cooler at the beach. I run hot in general, so I love not having the extra fabric of shorts hanging on me absorbing the sun.

Free feeling – Not sure how to explain this one, but you feel more free. It’s not like you’re going to prance around the beach or pool. It’s more refreshing. Maybe it is because I’m letting go of my inhibitions and wearing what I want.

Better in the water – I think it is hard to deny that a form fitting suit is better in the water. That is why swimmers wear them over loose fitting trunks and board shorts. They feel better wet than shorts plastered to you. They look better on you wet and dry.

Better for sunning – Obviously with a smaller suit you get more sun exposure on your skin. Why roll up the short legs when you can wear a suit without them. Go get some swim brief tan lines or smaller at the beach or outdoor pool.

See above – You get a lot of the benefits I mentioned with underwear too. Wearing a form fitting swimsuit is going to give you great support. You’ll feel less restrictive in them, sexy and confident. They are comfortable to wear too.

Just More enjoyable – What’s not enjoyable about finally manning up and wearing what you want to wear. Putting yourself out there breaking a norm and leading by example. Even when you are a reserved person. It feels great wearing appropriate beach and swim attire. Don’t wait to give it a try. I missed out on many years of just wearing a swim bikini brief.

Now, you really probably won’t understand until you give bikinis and thongs as underwear or swimwear (swim briefs too) a try. Finding that pair that fits just right holding everything nicely in place will really put the icing on the cake. Especially when it comes to thongs. I’m sure there are other benefits I did not mention that maybe you will discover or will get covered in the comments. It’s time to be brave and try some new styles.
