Thongs for Sale

Thongs And G-Strings: Ultimate Impact!

There's a reason that sexy thongs get more popular by the day. Thongs are revered for their ability to eliminate the "VPL," or visible panty line.

Would you believe that sexy thongs actually have their roots in tribal clothing worn by the people of South Africa more than 75,000 years ago? It's true! The sexy thong is a relatively recent trend in lingerie, but it is, in fact, considered one of the oldest types of clothing created by humankind! Want another interesting tidbit? Our much-loved womens thong was, at that time, made for men.

Thongs and g-strings aren't just a style of panties. They're also two types of swimsuits. The thong and g-string bikini owe their popularity, in part, to the string bikini. The string bikini paved the way for the super sexy bikinis that were later to come. String bikinis are a skimpier, more revealing version of traditional bikinis. The thong bikini then came along and combined a string bikini top with a thong bottom. Swimsuits haven't been the same since!

Thongs and g-strings actually aren't one and the same. A g-string is a more risqué version of the womens thong. A g-string has considerably less material in the back. As the name suggests, it resembles a string. There are two variations of both the thong and the g-string: the T-string and the V-string. It just depends on which letter the piece of fabric in the back most looks like.

When it comes to sexy panties, does it really get any sexier than the thong? Many women, and many men, would say thongs and g-strings are tops in the world of sexy panties. They're a bit of a tease because they reveal a lot, but still leave quite a bit to the imagination.

Thongs and g-strings look great when paired with virtually every type of lingerie. Bustiers, chemises, camisoles, babydolls - they almost always come with a matching thong or g-string.

As we mentioned earlier, a sexy thong is also a functional undergarment. The dreaded VPL rears its ugly head when you wear briefs with a tight pair of pants or a snug-fitting skirt. Even if you prefer briefs for daily wear, no woman should be without a stockpile of thongs. Next to going panty-free, thongs are our only line of defense against the VPL enemy.

Also a lot of thongs are low-rise. Low-rise jeans continue to be all the rage. And they call for equally low-rise panties unless you want passers-by to chant, "I see London, I see France..."

Sexy thongs are very affordable. They can fit into any woman's lingerie budget. You can get a beautiful thong for around $5. There are also more high-end thongs, made from rich fabrics with intricate details. It's easy to find a thong or g-string that really suits your fancy. You can buy them in silk, satin, or even see-through fabrics. A popular style is the womens thong that resembles a lacy butterfly in the front.

Your lingerie collection isn't complete with a thong, actually, without several thongs. Buy some that are sizzling sexy and some that are cotton and comfy.

The Thong Has Gone a Long Way

Seamless, crotchless, backless… never has a piece of fabric – or lack thereof – created as much sensation. The early 90s saw the rise of the thong – a sliver of fabric leading to a sexy V-shape at the back. The thong, or tanga as the Brazilians dubbed it, promised zero panty lines and plenty of sex appeal.

Its successors have included the G-string, bikini, brief, boyleg and high rise cut. But, despite what men’s magazines would have us believe, it seems the average woman is no longer baring her cheeks in next to nothing lingerie. We still see women buying conventionally sexy G-strings but these days it’s more about comfort. Boylegs are becoming more popular, especially the seamless variety.

Full coverage seamless boy shorts are also now available, ruling out the visible panty line problem. Remember Sex and the City’s Carrie walking around her apartment in boyish Y-fronts, Cameron Diaz’s boy shorts in Charlie’s Angels and Bridget Jones’s granny pants? It seems even Hollywood is saying, ‘So long, thong…’

Bet your Bottom Dollar

So what’s in a thong? Well, there’s not much to it. Fabric, that is. But there is big money. In the early noughties, big business caught on to what a hit the lacy skivvies were. So did Hollywood. Sisqo released the irritatingly catchy ‘Thong Song’ in 2000. The same year Britney Spears released her second album and sexed up new image. As she purred on ‘Oops… I did it again’, a nation of teenage girls copied her low rise jeans and high rise thong look and imitated the accidentally on purpose thong flash. Two years later, a record 123 million thongs were sold in the US, more than double the number sold in 1998. American retail giant Abercrombe and Fitch even released a line of thongs targeted at 10 – 16 year old girls.

This year, online store cafepress reported that, with regards to political merchandise, thongs that are pro Barack Obama are ahead in sales, while Hilary Clinton has taken the lead in men’s boxer sales. Then there’s the whole underwear-as-outwear controversy. Blame it on Christina Aguilera. Remember her Dirty music video in 2002, which featured the singer in a boxing ring wearing cowboy leather chaps minus the crotch bit? In 2007 she released a follow up track, ‘Still Dirrty’, and vowed that she’ll still be dirty at 60.

Not all thong wearers are created equal. While Christina might look cracking in a next to nothing leather number, Kim Kardashian might not. Thongs do not support even the slightest bit of junk in your trunk, as Jimmy Fallon sang in his Sisqo spoof ‘Please don’t wear that Thong: It shows off ya belly roll, don’t wear that thong, thong, thong’.

The Future is Slight

Even though the thong may not be as popular now as it was when it first hit the shelves, it seems it’s here to stay. Admittedly it’s undergone a makeover of sorts – the thong of today bears little resemblance to the one that made its appearance in the early 90s. In 2004 an Australian invention called the backless thong appeared. Unlike the conventional thong, the back straps fit under the crease of the butt cheeks and the side strings fasten like bra straps around the hips.

Then there’s the Cstring, which looks like an Alice band except one side has a gusset and the other a string. A built in wire keeps the thong in place, as there are no straps around the hips. It shows no panty line because, well, there are none. It’s like a cricket box with a strip up the back. You can see it at Cstringdirect’s website.

The Sexy Thong

Underwear is more than a necessity – it's a sense of style, and a sense of fashion. A lot of women like the naughty feeling that comes from wearing thong underwear, even if (or especially if) nobody else can see it. It boosts confidence, makes them feel more appealing, and gives them a burst of energy.

While thong underwear has been popular since at least the mid '80s, it's become more popular since the Clinton administration, and more women are looking for intimate undergarments that give them a sense of intimacy, rather than plain cotton panties. Thongs come in a bewildering array of fabrics and designs, allowing you to wear something sexy and beautiful every single day. Some women feel that thong underwear is more comfortable than any other style of underwear.

A comparatively hot trend in thongs are lace and mesh materials. A see through set of intimates can be sexy and romantic, and are available in every hue of the rainbow, and because it's lightweight, it breathes. A lot of men purchase this kind of underwear for their wives and girlfriends!

Another hot fashion item in thongs are beads and gems. These have embroidery, beads and gem stitched into the underwear to give it a more glamorous touch. These can be stitched in cute patterns – hearts and flowers and monograms. They can even be worn under tight clothing without being spotted.

Most things can be purchased as part of a set of intimates – a bra or a small camisole that will make any woman feel sexy and beautiful and desired. They can be worn to bed, out on a romantic evening with your beau, or even to the office under your professional attire.

Where can you get sexy thong underwear? Nearly anywhere – from mall stores to online shops to lingerie catalogs. Even discount stores like Wal-Mart are starting to carry thongs, putting this option in the reach of nearly anyone.
