i'm 46 years old and started wearing thongs in my teens, which means in the mid 70s. at that time, thongs weren't popular at all, let alone that hardly anybody even knew they existed. i felt unique and courageous as a 15 year old girl in the 70s, being the only one wearing thongs (of course i didn't let my parents know)....though it was pretty hard to buy them at the time.
i remember one time, when my thong was sticking out the back of my pants, a (male) friend of mine said "hey, i think your underwear is ripped"....and when i was 16 i had my first boyfriend, and i showed him my butt in them. he was blown away....
in the 80s you could see alot of women on tv wearing thong bikinis, and i started (in my 20s) wearing thong bikinis at the beach myself. then, in the 90s almost every woman started wearing them as underwear, and they became normal. now i'm just a 46 year old woman, who still thinks her butt looks adorable in thongs.
any other thong-pioneering women here?
