Why do you wear Thongs? – The Long Responses
Last week’s post I looked at Why do people wear thongs?. I asked some of my followers why they did. I had a couple of longer responses, so this is the follow-up with the longer responses.

First up is from funderwearrvw and here is what he had to say.
Comfort – For me comfort is king and thongs are the most comfortable underwear hands down. Thongs provide support and separation in all the right places and nothing more. Wearing a thong is like going commando except it’s better.
Confidence – The majority of guys don’t wear thongs. I think the main reason is that there’s just a stigma surrounding them for whatever silly reason(s). Wearing thongs in spite of that shows a lot of self confidence and that you don’t care what other people think. Especially when it comes to YOUR choice of underwear. You wear what you like and what makes you feel good. That’s confidence.
Aesthetic – I love the way thongs look. I like the way the back curves to form a “whale-tail” and really shows off your butt without any visible underwear lines.
Sexiness – Thongs are just plain sexy. They look sexy and make me feel sexy.
Fun – Wearing thongs makes getting dressed everyday more fun. It’s a chance to inject a little personality into your outfit. I look forward to choosing what thong looks best with whatever I’m wearing each day. Even if nobody else gets to see it. It get’s to be your little secret. Unless it peeks out of course!

Then undie_scientist sent this into me.
I will start since I wore Power Ranger briefs underwear as a kid.
At that age, I was more carefree to judgement as well as socially involved with those even in my family I grew up with.
Of course I didn’t know much about myself, nor did I feel out of place as what I was accustomed to. I didn’t feel too much to judgement or what was embarrassing.
Through all those years growing up with mostly women of the household (tragic upcoming as my father laid to rest at too early of a time); I had no thoughts of what I wore under my clothes, how and when I wear them nor what and where they’re worn. Not knowing I was the only one throughout the neighborhood (at the times: clothing was all hung dry after washing) who was small for his size and didn’t see my underwear as panties. Me being a boy and having a parent who didn’t change what was the normal buy.
Of course then, as I got older and grew a bit. I had no choice but to do only tighty whities. I never mind it much till I had p.e for the first time (with locker rooms)
My embarrassment then grew.
Finding out I would have to change was nerve wrecking. I never really had a time I had to come out my pants and find out I was not only the quiet more introvert but social black boy in briefs.
Being so embarrassed each day trying to keep my shirt as low as possible to look like I had shorts or boxers like e everyone else around me every single day with a grew who uncomfortably wait when I wanted to hide.
Finally I tried the shorts under thing. Since most people I seemed to be stuck hanging around with wore the baggiest of clothing, sagging low the short were a good cover.
It was uncomfortable so I tried different boxers and Boxer Briefs. I wasn’t all into spandex shorts.
I’ll keep it short with high school. I was playing sports and felt a little cool being and athlete with a honor roll like path to college. I only care about what I had under when I was trying to look like all others having young sex. I didn’t want o get left cause I had briefs on. In the movies all blacks guys are portrayed to have big swipes and wear boxers or boxer briefs for the space.
I was always uncomfortable with the adjustmenting and feeling like I was small at that time and still kinda now 6 inches and can stretch to 7 but that on full hard. I feel low when there is so many who can be 7 inches or longer on soft. I feel I would get left for that every time. Low self-esteem, sadly.
Skip the time line,
Did the military, got in some trouble. That time I had a few relationships. Hide in the dark after training. We all had to wear briefs so, I felt acceptable. I wore more compression shorts then and had my own place to keep on a down low liking briefs and got to shop for myself. Since I was more fit and wanting out the FTL or Hanes. I got into hip briefs from Calvin Klein.
I was loving how they fit when I’m home alone. I could walk around and sleep in them feeling free. Strange I had a love for the small panty feeling but was sleeping with women. I felt I would be judged as gay and never get to feel the womb again.
Most cases I was in compression shorts over. On days it was cold and wore pants. Just briefs.
Around 23 I was fully back in the Westcoast (home) I had jobs got more into underwear that felt like the ck one hip briefs. Tired of seeing the same thing in stores, that seem to sale out and feeling awkwardly, paranoid and feeling watched. I went to the online route. Finding the stores that sold bikini briefs
First was Kohls. They had equipo. Not being use to the riding up and feeling I would be spotted from and underwear line or pants falling for any odd reason I threw away from embarrassment of having smaller underwear and not hip to the idea of a thong. Right before the switch I began to miss the feeling. Doing research on who and where, I looked up mens underwear in Japan cause I’m a huge Anime fan.
Long past the back and forth of not wanting to get embarrassed I found and tried different kinds of skimpy underwear. Coming into the year from 23 to now 32 years old I grew more into liking all colors and prints and lean more to the thongs. I will wear my few bikini style, but loving the no movement and adjusting. Thongs have became my goto favorite. I almost wear everyday.

Thanks again for sharing why you enjoy wearing thongs.
Ways to Support The Bottom Drawer by Shopping
Wearing a thong is like having my lover’s hand on my ass constantly. I can feel her, and I know she’s there with me. every time I stand or walk, I am reminded that she’s there with me and every time I feel her presence, it’s like she’s saying, “I’m with you, I love you and I will never leave you!”
That’s so cool I can’t wait for that day if I’m allowed it to happen when it’s right.
I. Happened to love them. But I am not sure where to. wear. them
I like the smooth flat-front look and snug feel of a Slingshot Gaff Thong, usually worn for drag or cosplay. The T-back strap is wider, so it is comfortable and looks better at the Beach, and it stays on in rough surf. Designed for guys, so nothing can slip out and I like the squeeze.
