Answer 2

The origin of the term "G-string" is obscure. The term is first attested in writings by Americans in the late 1800s describing the loincloth of Philippine natives. In the "Philippine Islands" entry in the 1911 edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, the term "geestring" is used. Others say the term is derived from the G-string on a musical instrument. The origin of the word "thong" is from the Old English thwong, a flexible leather cord. It could simply be that G stands for genitals or genitalia.


A G-string (alternatively gee-string or gee string) "G-Thong" or thong is a narrow piece of cloth, leather, or plastic that covers or holds the genitals, passes between the buttocks, and is attached to a band around the hips, worn as swimwear or underwear by both men and women. The two terms G-string and thong are often used interchangeably; however, they can refer to slightly distinct pieces of clothing: The primary difference between the two garments is that a g-string has less material between the legs and buttocks, hence a string-like appearance. Variants of the thong or G-string include the V-string or G-Thong, a thong with a triangle "v" of cloth with the G-string between the legs, and the T-string, where a single string passes around the waist and between the legs, forming a T between the buttocks.

Answer 3

They were originally named because the string was the approximate thickness of the G string on a guitar. In the early days they were only worn by burlesque performers, who performed to live music. Supposedly, it was a guitar player in a burlesque house who first came up with the name g-string.

Answer 4

G-string stands for genitalia or groin and nothing to do with g-spot, and in the beginning had nothing to do with women. G-string or thong is probably the earliest form of clothing known to mankind; having originated in the warmer climates of sub-Saharan Africa where clothing was first worn nearly 75,000 years ago. Many tribal peoples, such as some of the Khoisan people of southern Africa, wore thongs for many centuries. Much like the 2000-plus-year-old Japanese fundoshi, these early garments were made with the male genitalia in mind.

Answer 5

Actually, I think it is a "geeee" string. The wearer thinks "Geee I didn't know it was going to ride up that high."
