I am friends with a couple who know I enjoy wearing thongs and g-strings at the beach. They always joke about me working from home wearing nothing but a thong, g-string, or maybe nothing. In return, I always try to convince them to try wearing a thong in private to gain confidence to maybe someday wear them in public. In any event, when we are out at a local bar or club, the subject usually comes up in some form or another. In other words, my friends live vicariously through me because I have confidence in wearing thongs in public.
The guy owns a gutter business, and he has signs on his trucks that say, “Our gutters are well hung!” Somehow, another discussion started between him and a different couple about thongs. I was not part of the conversation in any way and do not know how it started. He says he is going to order some thongs for the couple and is going to have “Our gutters are well hung!” put on the front. Then the laughter starts amongst everyone. The guy then asks the bartender if she would wear a thong, etc.
While all of this is going on, the wife of the couple says it actually makes sense for a guy to wear a thong because it holds everything in place. I was so excited to hear this comment and was about to jump into the conversation. Then I bit my tongue and stayed quiet. The last thing I needed was for everyone in the club to know I wear thongs. I know this sounds contradictory because I wear them in public, but I do not know a lot of the people that well and would prefer they not know.
In summary, I think more people would be more receptive to wearing or seeing thongs once they see the practicality in wearing them.
