Times change, fashion does not lag behind.
Lingerie is becoming more and more exotic and open, turning into a separate full-fledged element of the wardrobe. Experiments begin with swimwear, continue with translucent provocative outfits and end with the latest trends, when famous fashion designers show extravagant “lingerie out”. The most provocative and controversial element of intrigue is thongs. A small strip of fabric that gave rise to heated debate regarding beauty and harm.
Who invented women's and men's thongs?
It's hard to believe, but they are over a thousand years old!
Perhaps they were created a long time ago to cover the primitive male genitals, but nowadays such panties are in great demand among women. They differ in the type of back, the material used for sewing, and the thickness of the straps. Now this wardrobe item is available to men and women all over the world, but before it was completely different.
For example, the Eskimos of the North wore a prototype, which was a very similar model, but made of skin, decorated with beads and ribbons. Such underwear was suitable for wearing in the tent, and to go outside, Eskimos changed into fur pants.
First acquaintance with thongs
Sexy lingerie demonstrated dancers strip clubs in America, entertained men on a pole during World War II. It came into their wardrobe by accident and rather curiously. Previously, beauties danced naked in such establishments, but someone didn’t like their excessive exposure, and in 1939 The mayor of New York has ordered private parts to be covered. This is how the first thongs were introduced to a wide public, making dancing more intriguing and alluring. Gradually they won their place in the sun.
Perhaps the main credit for the mass craze for thongs belongs to Rudi Heinreich, a fashion designer and avant-garde artist. He became famous for his swimsuits without a bodice, outrageous shows and the use of vinyl and plastic in his models. In the 70s, Rudy introduced the thong and it took over the world.
Gradually, the lines blurred, they began to be worn in Europe, Latin America, by men and women. There are currently four varieties:
- T – thong: 1 triangle and 3 strings at the back. Everything together forms the letter T.
- V: there are no inserts, only ropes.
- WITH: Instead of side elastic bands and ropes, the model is held in place by a silicone frame.
- G: Only one small triangle available.
They are in every woman’s wardrobe, allowing her to attract the attention of her beloved man, get a perfectly even tan, and such models are hardly noticeable under tight clothes.
Popularity among men
Thongs are also conquering the men's wardrobe, because the stronger sex also wants to look sexy and attractive, have a tanned body and catch admiring glances.
Most often, bodybuilders use red thongs. They make the waist narrower, emphasizing the torso muscles.
Such models are valued for their convenience and comfort. Large companies sew such high-quality options that even those people who value lingerie only for its practicality buy them. Moreover, reviews talk about how opinions change after the first wearing experience.
Manufacturers provide a wide selection of men's briefs, allowing you to choose the most comfortable thong. They are increasingly being worn every day, under tracksuits and tight jeans, for example, they are ideal under skinnies.
Thongs: sexy or dangerous?
About cheap synthetic models, it’s worth saying right away - no! You can leave it in the drawer only for short-term opportunities to show off in front of your husband. They cause irritation to the skin and mucous membranes due to poor air exchange. But even high-quality fabric cannot protect against troubles. The cause of the problem lies in the design itself - a thin strip between the gluteal muscles rubs the skin and promotes the transfer of bacteria. It is better to avoid metal inserts and chains.
Is it difficult to choose between beauty and health? It is even more difficult to enjoy new outfits when symptoms of thrush are observed and you need to often seek the help of a doctor. Therefore, you should not wear them constantly, even leaving them overnight.
No one is calling for a return to pantaloons! Nowadays, underwear manufacturers offer amazingly beautiful models in the form of shorts that do not hide so many pitfalls.
Also, doctors do not recommend wearing them in winter. However, this advice applies to short jackets and low-rise trousers. In cold weather, the hips and lower back area should not be put at risk.
If you act without unnecessary fanaticism and approach your wardrobe wisely, then small panties will become a piquant addition without causing unnecessary hassle. The modern world looks at the issue of exposing women's and men's buttocks more sympathetically than it was in the last century, but at the same time, one should not go too far, trying to keep up with the changing fashion.
