Thong underwear with see-through white pants and skirts: Yea or nay?

[prolesunited]

I was in the city today and must say I was a little taken aback by this trend. Even older women are doing it.

How long has this been going on? I don't like panty lines, but when you're wearing shear white pants or gauzy skirt, shouldn't there something more there than the top of your thong?

Am I getting old and prudish? I just seems kind of wrong to me.

1. I think it's a dumb trend.

[LastKnight]

2. theres no fun

in taking away that much of the mystery. i think its stupid.

[Catch22Dem]

3. Yea

I'm all about self-expression. Besides, it may be piggish of me, but it's kinda hot.

[madeline_con]

4. It looks trashy...

There, I said it.

Why is the idea that someone can tell you have on underwear the most horrible thing in the world to some people???

[In_The_Wind]

5. hahaha

You're not old or prudish!

some things shouldn't show at any age

6. My babysitter (in the 70s) used to wear

see-through polyester pants w/no panties. We called her "the Bermuda Triangle". :rofl:

:hi: proles. :)

7. A 70 year old woman with see-through pants and no panties?

:scared:

[prolesunited]

8. Didn't see that today

Now that would be totally frightening.

[eyepaddle]

24. I think that was in THE 70S--not in HER 70s!

:D

[liberalpragmatist]

25. No - back in the 1970s

At least I'm pretty sure that's what s/he's saying.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

31. For all that's holy, I hope you're right! (nt)

[prolesunited]

9. Howdy stranger!

Hope all is well. :hi:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

10. Just imagine ...........

[madrchsod]

14. i`m going to have a fucking nightmare

[MnFats]

11. i say 'yeah!" Not necessarily trashy and besides..

...trashy, done correctly, is intriquing and very HOT!

[prolesunited]

12. So, you would like your girlfriend

to go out in public like that, even without you?

[MnFats]

19. oh, hell. why not? I mean, with certain safety precautions in mind...

in order to avoid being carried off....i can remember days as a lunatic college student in which far worse (or maybe better) occurred.
....call me a perv if you must.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

22. I kinda have to agree with that

just not in an "across the board" kinda way :D

[madrchsod]

13. those who could actually pull that look off-don`t

those who have no business even thinking of doing that -do. that`s my expert opinion.

[prolesunited]

15. Actually, most of those doing it had business doing it

Another thing in bearing the belly with low-rise pants. If you've got a bit of pudge, better to opt for a longer shirt that let everyone see it spill out of your pants.

[WorseBeforeBetter]

16. It sounds like a Glamour "don't," but I live near DC, not a city...

known for it's fashion sense/style.

[wtmusic]

17. If you have a nice tushie go for it nt

[Porcupine]

18. Youch!! I live in a college town. Mixed feelings...

I rather like ogling the 20 somethings putting it out there but I get concerned when I see high school girls following suit. Parents need to exert some control or they'll be grandparents soon.

[KitchenWitch]

20. I hate the pirate patch

It is almost as bad as a visible cameltoe.

[prolesunited]

21. Is that what it's called?

There was this one woman who was too big to carry off the look, or perhaps just needed a larger size, but she had BOTH the pirate patch and camel toe. I'm thinking that was a definite Glamor don't.

[Zuni]

23. I support hot young college coeds doing it

:thumbsup:

[Love Bug]

26. I saw a guy do that once -- it was not pretty

x(

[Hugin]

27. Bring 'em on!

j/k

[Finder]

28. not sure if it is a trend...

I am the "commando" type but I do wear a thong if I have white pants or clothing you can see through.

Why does it matter what someone is wearing?

[prolesunited]

36. In the grand scheme of things

of course it doesn't really "matter." It was just something I noticed that I hadn't seen before, so I posted the question.

You could run around buck naked for all I care and all that it really matters.

[Taverner]

29. Yea!

But then again, I'm one of those weirdos who likes nothing left to the imagination.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

30. HELL, Yea!

[ernstbass]

32. Tacky

[BiggJawn]

33. I'm all for it....PROVIDED.....

...you don't look silly. Think Barbara Bush wearing that ensemble. That's silly. Woman with a taut, muscley pair of buns or a round firm bootie...Oh, Yeah!

What I've seen down here is see-through white pants with "RealTree" camo boy shorts underneath...

[Finder]

34. Did you notice most females said Nay and most males said Yea?

I think I saw 2 exceptions so far on both sides.

[NewJeffCT]

35. I have noticed a lot of dark bras under white/light colored tops

If I didn't know better, I'd say it's almost like the woman is trying to call attention to her chest.

Haven't noticed the thong with see through pants yet, though. I've seen a few pants that don't leave much to the imagination in that you can clearly tell the woman is wearing a thong...

[tjwmason]

37. This is mostly speculation on my part

As I tend not to walk round in white linen skirts (being a man and all). The fabric used is light and ideal for warm weather, but has the draw-back of being somewhat see-though.

Given that, it follows that any underwear worn will be visible.

A thong has less material - and is therefore less visible - and therefore preferable.

Maybe it's just me, but I think that non-thong knickers are more 'in your face' and as such is worse (more trashy if you wish to use that term).

The very worst that I have seen was a man - he was wearing linen trousers with dark-blue or black boxer shorts underneath. It was just so totally obvious, and looked pretty damn ridiculous - hint hint chaps, if your trousers are at all see-though then wear white boxers. :banghead:

38. exactly...

and regular women's briefs show panty lines, thongs don't.
