What a wonderful wife you have!!!

@7423080 That's a great experience! I hope that it changed your daily underwear wardrobe as well!

Of course that was long ago but I still wear string bikini or thong underwear daily. Most days the cotton string and weekends the thongd. I do like the way a thong does not tend to ride down over my butt versus a string/ I do have a pair of boxers in the drawer in case I am going to the doctor or hospital or the like.

My story is similar. In the 90's when my wife (now) and I first met. I wanted her to wear thong underwear. She said she would try it only if I did as well. So we got each other thongs. She was self conscience because you could see the thong line under her favourite pants. She was in a college course at the time, I thing she liked the attention. It wasn't too long after that that that we bet on a hockey game. The bet was If my team won, she couldn't wear underwear for a week and would have to wear a short skirt at least 2 days. . I won. Her first reaction was that the guys would know because the thong line was missing. After the week was over she never put underwear on again, In the mean time, I had been wearing the thongs she bought me . 30 plus years later, I am still wearing thong underwear and we both wear thong swimwear as much as possible.

My story was so convoluted and had so many twists and turns along the way. It started with an ex-gf. We were together in our early 20's. She was a very, very sexual person. Just too much for me, at the time. I was young and hadn't really become open minded yet. She wanted to wear thongs and go to the nude beach and I was super, against it and insecure. The the time, I will never forget, she bought a Beach Bunny bikini that was now just considered cheeky. I was furious LOL. That relationship failed, in part, due to that. I just always had this odd feeling with her wearing thongs. On one hand it was "I can't believe she's putting her ass on display" and the other "Wow that's so hot everyone can see her ass." It was never meant to be but I had a lot of growing up to do. I was still a boardshorts type of guy. Moving on, I met my next ex-gf and we were in our late 20's. She was mixed-race. Half black, half Asian. This is where things really got going. It was what it was, but she was super insecure and looking for validation. Now the script flipped. Instead of me being directed, I was doing the directing. I was encouraging her to wear micro bikinis, tan topless, tan nude, submitting galleries to Malibu Strings for their contest, etc. All her male coworkers saw her galleries, she was wearing micro bikinis on the beach when regular thongs weren't even common. If I said jump, she asked how high and how naked do you want me to be? It was mutually enjoyed and accepted. We were young and the relationship failed for petty reasons. Once again, I was still a boardshorts guy. Then, I had a wild, tumultuous relationship with none other than...a Brazilian. She was a walking conundrum. Tiny thong bikinis on the beach, church on three times a week, wild sex at night. In the end, I just couldn't handle the ride. Without digressing, this is where I discovered swim-trunks and the "sunga." She convinced me board shorts weren't cool, I had a great body with good legs (which I definitely did/do) and at least wear the small swim shorts or trunks, which I did. We became the hot Brazilian and hot white guy with their small swim suits on the beach. That relationship failed for a litany of reasons, swimsuits not withstanding. From there, I had a couple quick flings with a few girls. I had one (white) girl who was vehemently against thongs and didn't even like that I wore swim trunks and swim shorts. In her words "I am not OK with all these women seeing your package and I can't believe you're OK with me walking around with my ass out." That didn't work and I wished her the best. I had always been attracted to Latinas, naturally, and it became apparent they aligned most with my body confidence. And then...I met my now wife. Latina, implants, beautiful, amazing personality, kindhearted and caring and the rest was history. "Buy what you want me to wear" she said...and I did. Malibu Strings, Wicked Weasel, the-bikini.com, etc. The suits got smaller and smaller. Then the top came off. And then the nude beach. It is at the point now if I want to see her naked (within legal areas and appropriateness) she will strip. One day, we were on South Beach, and she was topless in a g-string. I was wearing very short swim trunks. A gentleman walked up the beach in a tiny g-string. I joked that she "got beat in the smallest suit contest." She right away suggested I wear one next time. I asked if she wanted me to, and she said yes. My first thong was a conservative Skinzwear black t-back. Now we buy each other all our suits. I find new micro bikinis for her, she fines new thongs for me. She's bought me pistol suits, micro g-string pouches, etc. Most of our friends have seen us nude to some extent. Only a select few have seen us in no less than our thongs. In a matter of 15 years I went from anti-thong to never missing an opportunity for my wife and I to wear as little as possible.

Many men start that way. There is absolutely nothing more persuasive than a woman who leads and encourages him at each step along the way.

Oh for sure. The same could be said for women too. I have a lot of buddies that would ask me "Man, how do you get your wife to wear those small bikinis?" I simply said: Be honest and don't be pushy. Tell her she's hot, she has a great body, and you would love to see her wear a thong bikini. A little encouragement goes a long way. Obviously, there are different dynamics. Don't be pushy, don't be hostile, and don't be mean are all good rules of thumb. It's rare but my wife has had days where she simply doesn't feel like wearing something microscopic. I simply say "Understood. I want you to feel comfortable." Rarely does she not agree to at least wear a more modest thong. I've had a few days like that too. As much as I enjoy it, there are just days I don't feel like having people see my butt and package.

Nice stories guys! I think some board members are a bit (or more) jealous (including me, for sure!). Since thongs and guys is ‘t a good combination for most (?) women, you can call youself lucky!

That to me is so surprising. At the minimum, all of our couples who are friends, where the wife/GF wears a thong bikini, the guy usually wears at minimum short swim shorts or trunks. I personally believe it has to do with body confidence. Most of our friends are into fitness or bodybuilding. With that, comes some level of confidence and desire to show off. Not that someone who isn't into that shouldn't wear a thong. If you enjoy it and feel comfortable...wear it!

One day for me long ago, I simply disliked my tennis shorts tan lines and white butt. The beauty of women's tiny thong tan lines were arousing, and it's a sexy feeling to have 24/7. I saw an exposed thong tan line on a cute girl while jogging at the park and was hooked. Started sunbathing only in thongs, and keeping the same suit every season so my tan line is consistent for that year.
