The Vine: October 27, 2000
Dear Sarah,
Hope you enjoyed your trip, welcome back.
Some time ago I commented about our shared dislike for men’s white briefs. Well, how about giving it to the girls too? I am referring to the infamous thong. From various “unnamed sources” I get the impression wearing one is at first uncomfortable and takes time to get used to. As a man, I don’t think they are as sexy as the thong wearers do. Besides, panties are damn cute, and more fun to pull down. Finally, and most important, they are unsanitary. I wouldn’t want to handle one after it had been removed. As a firm believer in equal rights, if guys have to take their licks so can the gals. What about it?

Dear Bob,
So I should cancel that order for custom-made TN thongs, then?
Joking.I am not a fan of the thong, myself.Many women swear by them – no panty lines, if you get the right one it feels more comfy than regular panties, blah dee blah.I don’t wear one unless I absolutely have to.You do get used to the “perma-wedgie” feeling after a while, but I prefer regular cotton bikinis unless I have to wear something super-sheer or super-tight, which – praise God – I seldom do.
It’s a matter of personal preference, really.Some guys love that look, although they’d have a tough time loving it on me, because…well, I’ve got no ass, and it just looks sad and wrong.
As for the unsanitary part, well, if the woman in question practices standard personal hygiene, the thong isn’t any more unsanitary than a regular pair of panties.It’s underwear, not a dinner service.
